Audi S3 8P Remapping and Tuning
The Audi S3 8P (2006–2012) is powered by a 2.0-litre TFSI EA113 turbocharged petrol engine, producing a factory output of 265 BHP and 350 Nm of torque. With its turbocharged engine, quattro all-wheel-drive system and performance-focused engineering, the S3 8P offers excellent potential for performance tuning.
At Onyx Performance, we provide professional ECU remapping and performance tuning to improve your Audi S3’s power, torque and overall driving experience. Our tuning solutions are tailored to your vehicle, with careful consideration given to engine condition, software compatibility and supporting hardware.
Whether you are looking for a Stage 1 remap or a more comprehensive Stage 2 setup, we can help you get more from your Audi S3 8P.
Audi S3 Stage 1 Remap
Our Stage 1 ECU remap is designed to optimise the factory engine management software without requiring additional performance hardware modifications.
The standard Audi S3 8P produces 265 BHP and 350 Nm. Following a Stage 1 remap, estimated performance can increase to approximately 320 BHP and 430 Nm of torque, delivering stronger acceleration and improved in-gear performance.
Benefits of a Stage 1 remap include:
- Increased horsepower
- Increased torque
- Improved throttle response
- Stronger acceleration
- Improved in-gear performance
- Smoother power delivery
Our calibration is developed around the vehicle’s engine and ECU configuration, with the aim of delivering responsive performance while maintaining suitable operating parameters.
Audi S3 Stage 2 Tuning
For owners looking for further performance, Stage 2 tuning can offer additional power when combined with suitable supporting modifications.
With the appropriate hardware and calibration, the Audi S3 8P may achieve up to approximately 350 BHP and 470 Nm of torque.
Stage 2 tuning may require supporting upgrades depending on the vehicle’s configuration, condition and intended use. These can include suitable intake, intercooling and exhaust upgrades where compatible.

These checks help identify potential issues before tuning and allow us to establish whether the vehicle is suitable for the requested calibration.
