RacingLine Stage 3 POWERMAX Software - Skoda Octavia vRS MK3 GPF

RacingLine Stage 3 POWERMAX software for Skoda Octavia vRS MK3 GPF. This is the turbo-upgrade calibration licence; the Garrett turbo and supporting hardware are purchased separately.

Performance at a glance

Stage 3 POWERMAX	Stock reference	Tuned	Gain
Power (PS)	245	431	+186
Torque (Nm)	370	537	+167

RacingLine published engine-family reference, in PS and Nm. Factory output varies by vehicle. Figures are illustrative and depend on fuel, hardware, engine condition and test method.

Published reference for the stated turbo and exhaust configuration. Non-GPF cars require their own calibration; the GPF-retaining graph is not a promise of identical output on every model.

Choose your software package

• ECU only — £720.00 inc VAT (£600.00 ex VAT). Engine calibration licence.
• ECU + TCU — £1050.00 inc VAT (£875.00 ex VAT). Engine calibration plus tuning for the compatible gearbox controller.

Software price only. Flashing labour, fitting, PDM/cables, controller unlocks, turbochargers and other hardware are additional. Purchase the licence online; activation requires a compatible vehicle and installation arrangement. A software purchase does not include a PDM or an automatic download for an unsupported controller.

Full licence for new customers. If this vehicle already has an eligible OEM+ ECU licence, use the reduced-price POWERMAX upgrade instead. For DSG Stage 3, ECU only is suitable only when compatible TCU tuning is already present; otherwise select ECU + TCU where supported.

Why RacingLine OEM+?

RacingLine develops its calibrations alongside its performance hardware, with experience from road, track and dyno testing. The aim is a consistent delivery of power and torque with smooth everyday behaviour, rather than a peak figure alone. OEM+ also supports a return to the vehicle’s original stock calibration.

Compatible gearbox tuning revises torque handling and shift behaviour to complement the ECU calibration. DSG dynamic software varies clutch pressure with load, combining everyday driving with the extra torque of the engine calibration. A gearbox licence does not include a physical clutch or a controller unlock.

Vehicle compatibility and installation

• Skoda Octavia vRS Mk3 — 2.0 TSI GPF
• Engine/controller application: MQB 2.0TSI IS20
• Listed transmission: DQ250 / DQ381

Match the engine code, original power, turbo, emissions equipment and ECU/TCU software IDs before activation. A registration year alone does not establish compatibility. Newer locked controllers may require an additional unlock or may not support direct flashing.

Installation is through an authorised tuning centre or, for a supported application, a separately purchased RacingLine PDM. PDM availability must be checked for the actual controller; it is not included in this listing.

Tuning can affect manufacturer warranty and insurance cover. Retain emissions equipment required for road use, and maintain the vehicle appropriately for the increased output.
