Chip tuning for Audi A5 35 TFSI (1.5) 150 hp ECU
Audi A5 (2016 - F5) 35 TFSI (1.5) 150 hp — premium petrol engine of the passenger segment of the Volkswagen Group (VAG) group (Германия, 1909). Stage 1 chip tuning raises power from 150 to 175 hp (+25 hp, +17%) and torque from 250 to 300 Nm (+50 Nm). ECU — Bosch MG1CS011. Flashing method: OBD or Bench depending on the unit's protection. The Bosch DQ38x TCU is calibrated with a separate file — torque limiter and shift maps for Stage 1. In the CHIPOK database: 4 configurations · 2 ECU variants. The 2016 generation — mid-generation petrol ECUs (MEDC17/MEVD17/Simos PCR), OBD flash on production revisions.
quattro is Audi's signature all-wheel-drive system, introduced in 1980. The four rings in the Audi logo are a legacy of the 1932 Auto Union merger of Audi, Horch, DKW and Wanderer. The Audi community is one of the most active in Europe for chip tuning. The factory calibration of Audi petrol engines is conservative, leaving headroom for Stage 1.
APR and Revo are the leading tuning brands for Audi, right up to Stage 1+. On Audi, Stage 1 usually fits within the standard turnaround time. On pre-2017 Audi models, Stage 1 is flashed via OBD without bench. The factory calibration is conservative, with headroom for Stage 1 and no hardware changes. The MQB platform is the most refined chip tuning segment in Europe. Mid-range Audi engines form the backbone of the range; Stage 1 preserves engine life. In the mid segment, the Audi community is an open platform with a large library of ready-made Stage files.
The S tronic TCU requires calibration at Stage 1+, as the torque limiter usually sits below the engine's potential. Tiptronic is Audi's classic automatic for longitudinally mounted engines. S tronic is Audi's signature dual-clutch gearbox (the DSG in the Audi range).
Frequently asked questions
What is the Stage 1 effect on the Audi A5 35 TFSI (1.5) 150 hp?

What is Stage 1 chip tuning for the Audi A5?
Stage 1 is a software optimization of the factory ECU firmware of the Audi A5 with no hardware changes. The injection, boost, ignition-timing and torque maps are reprogrammed. The gain is +25 hp with no hardware changes.
What is the risk of Stage 1 on the Audi A5 35 TFSI (1.5) 150 hp?
A remap of the Audi A5 35 TFSI (1.5) 150 hp is safe — the factory calibration in this mid-range class is conservative, leaving genuine headroom for Stage 1 with no hardware changes.
What is Stage 2 for the Audi A5 35 TFSI (1.5) 150 hp?
Stage 2 on the Audi A5 35 TFSI (1.5) 150 hp means software + hardware (exhaust, intake, intercooler). The gain depends on the specific hardware combination.
What ECU platform does the Audi A5 35 TFSI (1.5) 150 hp use?
The Audi A5 35 TFSI (1.5) 150 hp is fitted with the Bosch MG1CS011 ECU. The read method depends on the unit's protection: OBD, Bench via BDM, or Boot mode.
What does remapping the Bosch DQ38x gearbox give on the Audi A5 35 TFSI (1.5) 150 hp?
The Bosch DQ38x TCU is calibrated separately: the torque limit is raised, the shift maps are optimized for the Stage 1 characteristics, and launch control is re-tuned. The TCU file is flashed separately from the ECU.
Does the factory warranty of the Audi A5 remain valid after Stage 1?
After remapping the Audi A5, the official factory warranty on the engine and gearbox is lost (this applies to any manufacturer when the ECU is modified). CHIPOK guarantees the quality of the calibration and free revisions.
How long is the wait for a Stage 1 remap for the Audi A5?
Reading and writing via OBD takes 25-30 minutes on the Audi A5. Bench reading (BDM/JTAG) takes about 60 minutes plus refitting. Remote file processing at CHIPOK takes 5-30 minutes.
How do you roll back to the factory firmware of the Audi A5?
Before Stage 1 the original of the Audi A5 35 TFSI (1.5) 150 hp is read out and saved — returning to the factory state is possible at any time.
How much does chip tuning the Audi A5 35 TFSI (1.5) 150 hp cost?
The remap price for the Audi A5 35 TFSI (1.5) 150 hp is dynamic and is calculated in the CHIPOK calculator based on the selected options. A credit-based payment model, with no subscription fees.
