Audi RS3 DAZA Stage 2: 318.3 kW at the Wheels
· 1 min read · PTEB Tuning
The RS3's 2.5-litre five-cylinder is one of the most characterful engines on sale — and one of the most rewarding to tune. This Stage 2 build shows how much a well-chosen set of bolt-ons and a custom calibration can add.
The result
- 318.3 kW at the wheels @ 6,000 rpm
- 577.3 Nm @ 3,796 rpm
- +68 kW and +77 Nm over baseline
The build
- Upgraded intake
- Downpipe
- Custom PTEB calibration
Why Stage 2 suits the RS3
The DAZA engine responds strongly once it can breathe more freely. An intake and downpipe reduce restriction, and the calibration uses that headroom while keeping intake temperatures and knock under control — important for consistent power on Australian summer days.
