My mk 7.5 performance edition 1 GTI FINALLY does dsg pops and feels like a rocket with the new upshift times. This tune has saved me from changing my car. Thank you 034!
Tune your DQ381 DSG gearbox from home or on the go with '034SPI' Mobile app.
Founded in 2005, 034 Motorsport produces motorsport quality parts and software tuning solutions for Audi and Volkswagen vehicles. Passion for innovation, performance and quality is the core of the company.
Shift smoother and faster
To extract the full potential of your ECU tune and hardware modifications transmission software is required. An optimised calibration will decrease shift times, raise engine RPM limiter, improve general drivability, optimise launch control and increase acceleration.
Manage your hardware
When gearbox clutch clamping pressures are not managed correctly, it can put increased strain on the transmission leading to premature wear. Increasing clutch pressure leads to less clutch slip. This enables the gearbox to handle the increased torque from software remapping.
Transform your drive
By decreasing the time to shift less power is lost during changes. This leads to a faster car, rapid acceleration and an enhanced driving experience.
DQ381 TUNING FEATURES
Increased DSG Clutch Clamping Force
As with any automatic transmission vehicle, the ECU and TCU computers work synchronously to properly apply torque to the vehicle's drivetrain in a safe and reliable manner. Within both the ECU and TCU, there are factory safety tables that limit overall torque output based upon what the factory first tuned the car for. The ECU reports the output of torque from the engine to the TCU, and the TCU decides if this is suitable, or too much. If it is too much, the TCU will command the ECU to reduce torque output based upon its safety tables.
034Motorsport takes a holistic approach with its Dynamic+ Tuning, and aims to retain as many OEM safety protocols as possible. While it is possible to tune around the factory TCU torque limiters from the ECU side, this is done at the expense of torque safety features that are integral in keeping your transmission running safely. 034Motorsport’s calibrators tune the ECU to work with the TCU to provide accurate torque values, and recalibrate the appropriate safety ranges for the TCU. Taking these extra steps to retain OEM safety systems on the ECU and TCU side is just one of the many reasons that Dynamic+ software provides substantial yet reliable performance increases.
Shift Speeds Increased
To further enhance the acceleration of your DQ381 equipped vehicle, shift times are dramatically decreased in all driving modes, which ultimately results in quicker acceleration.
Optimized Sport Mode Shift Points
In order to take advantage of the increased powerband from the turbochargers, Dynamic+ Tuning optimizes the shift points in all driving modes to maximize acceleration during wide open throttle scenarios.
Improved Responsiveness
Launch Control Enabled on All Models
Gear Display Indicator on MFD Enabled in All Driving Modes
Launch RPM Raised to 4500RPM Max and Can Be Adjusted Based on Pedal Input
The launch RPM has been raised for a significant increase in force, allowing you to get off the line as fast as possible.
034 MOTORSPORT DQ381 END USER FLASH KIT
034 Motorsport offer flashing capabilities on multiple devices. Calibrate your vehicle with Windows PC, or the 034SPI Dynamic+ Smartphone Interface for MacOS, iOS mobile devices, and Android devices. Both programs have the same flashing capabilities, but 034SPI allows you to flash tunes wirelessly using the Dynamic+ Flashing Dongle and your mobile device, change fuel maps on the fly, configure live data displays, record and submit data logs to 034Motorsport's Tuning Support team, and utilize diagnostic support tools such as DTC/CEL code read/clear, and more!
Note: If you already have this kit you do not need to purchase it again. One kit can tune your ECU and TCU.

How to use the end user flash cable & software
Receive welcome email(after purchase) with 034 software account and user guide
Plug into OBD2 port and USB port on laptop & take read of stock ECU / TCU
Send 034 stock file details from software (very easy)
Plug back into OB2 port & USB and flash tune your ECU / TCU
Once you have taken the stock read of the ECU you can always flash your car back to stock at any time. You can also flash between stages.
The reading / flashing and software process isnot complicated. Everything is straight forward and anyone who has the computer skills to send an email can do this process.
Initial read time - 10 minutes First flash time - 20 minutes Flash back to stock - 10 minutes Upgrading files (stage 1 to 2) - 5 minutes Flashing between files and stages - 5 minutes
Q: What happens after I order my tuning cable and software?
A: We will EXPRESS post the cable and start a tuning order for you.
How long do I have to wait to receive my tuning download link and username?
From the minute your order is processed on the VAGParts website, you can expect a 1-3 business day fulfillment time to receive your download links and username from the 034 Motorsport tuning team. Please be on the lookout for this email, which will come from the email address "tuning@034motorsport.com"
Q: What is in the introductory email?
A: This is an email from 034Motorsport which includes the username for your account, a link to download the flashing software and the Getting Started user manual.
Q: I haven't got my introductory email
A: You may have to wait 1-3 business days to receive this email from the 034Motorsport team. Please also check your spam, updates, and other email tabs for the email from 034Motorsport. If it still hasn't come after a couple of days please contact VAGPARTS. Please note weekends are not working days.
Q: What do I need to tune my vehicle with a laptop?
A: Windows 10/11 laptop, strong/stable internet connection, Dynamic+ flashing cable, a 20-amp battery supply charger/maintaner, and tuning account access.
I have everything I need what do I do next?
Please download the 034 flashing client if you haven't already, and review the Getting Started guide.

This will send an email to you that will allow you to set your own password, which you'll need to use to log into the flashing client software. Once you are logged into the flashing client, please click on the controller that you wish to program (either ECU - engine, or TCU - transmission) and proceed through the steps listed in the "Getting Started" guide to flash that controller. The files labeled "Stock" are completely OEM software calibrations, as you would have received from the factory, so please only flash these if you wish to go back to stock tuning.
I received an error message stating that "No products are available for this controller", what do I do?
If you receive the error message "No products are available for this controller", please email tuning@034motorsport.com directly, and someone from their tuning support team will advise you on the steps that they will take to get you access to the files that were purchased.
