Audi is part of the Volkswagen Group (VAG), Europe's largest automotive group. Audi Sport is Audi's performance division, building the RS models. Audi shares platforms with Volkswagen, Porsche, Bentley and Lamborghini within VAG. TFSI is Audi's signature designation for direct-injection petrol turbo engines.
APR and Revo are the leading tuning brands for Audi, right up to Stage 1+. On mid-range standard Audi petrol engines, Stage 1 delivers a noticeable gain. Within the VAG group, ECUs are standardised, so a single file often fits a dozen models across Audi/VW/Skoda/Seat. 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 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.
