ChipWerke piggyback tuning module is the most advanced plug-and-play performance mod for the Audi S3, and the best alternative to a permanent ECU remap. ChipWerke intercepts the boost pressure sensor signal of the EA888 Gen 3 engine. It recalibrates the sensor reading and increases the turbo boost pressure for a significant increase in power and torque. With 50+ HP in Stage 1 and an up to 35% increase in Stage 2, ChipWerke improves performance throughout the entire RPM band and unlocks better 0-60 times without affecting reliability or causing diagnostic flags. ChipWerke comes with a 2-year product warranty and US-based after-sales support.

HOW DOES CHIPWERKE PIGGYBACK MODULE WORK

The ChipWerke piggyback tuning module connects to the turbo boost pressure sensor of your Audi S3 8V’s EA888 Gen 3 engine. It intercepts the factory wiring harness with OEM-quality plugs, and it is a safe and reversible alternative to ECU tuning—ChipWerke only intercepts and optimizes the stock signals to modify boost pressure, increasing horsepower and torque, without making permanent changes.

It works within factory parameters and does not permanently alter the stock ECU, so ChipWerkeboosts power output while retaining OEM reliability. The mapping can be fine-tuned with seven preset levels (-3 to +3) easily via the mobile app to optimize the power increase for your driving style, varying fuel quality, or climate conditions.

EASY PLUG-AND-PLAY INSTALL

The ChipWerke piggyback tuning module connects to the 4-pin boost pressure sensor located at the front of the engine block, right on the pressure pipe. It intercepts the factory wiring harness with top-quality plugs, so no wire splicing, cutting, drilling, or permanent modifications are required. The guide included in the package shows specific installation instructions for your vehicle.

The basic things to consider in all applications are as follows:

Turn off the engine and wait for it to cool down. Leave the driver’s door open for 15 minutes while keeping the keyfob at least 35 feet away from the car to ensure the ECU shuts down completely.
Locate where you want to mount the module. Make sure that it is away from the areas that tend to heat up relatively more.
Make sure the ChipWerke harness is not overly stretched and is protected against water.
Make sure that plugs are securely connected in place and that there are no unused plugs left.
