That’s crazy stuff. I got total opposite numbers. Problems with the IE. I actually have all three, Apr,IE,034. Apr is only the ecu tune, and IE having issues with idle, battery low voltage, 2nd gear very hard shifts. 034 I’m having no issue at all. I also used a mustang dyno for all my testing at BOLD cars. I’m running E85, HPFP, carbon intake , 10:33 Miltek cat back, thats it. Great video though. Beautiful car. I have a 1of3 coupe 😉👍🏻💪🏼
You're a legend bro. Was literally looking at both shopping carts to decide which one I want to go with. I had 034 on my S5, so I already have their tuner and was looking for a tune for my RS5, but saw IE has their power link available and their tunes look promising but not enough feedback on it. This post just gave me the nudge, so thank you!
here is the thing. These tunes are really made for different people. Integrated has always pushed the limits of power and torque. But at the same time, most of the cars I have seen go nuclear and blow up are running IE files. Its great that they can push out that much power and get those times. But you have to ask for how long? The great thing about 034 tunes is they are plenty quick. But they do a lot more in the way of making sure you have longevity. And I dont know about the IE tune but I know you have to drive the 034 for awhile to allow it to adapt to your driving style. Even after a reflash my car feels a bit slower until the car has had time to adapt to my driving. And with 034 always try the upswing method to launching rather than holding the launch for an extended period of time. And I hate to say it man. But draggy times and 1/4 mile runs should actually be shown while being performed. Showing results without the actual runs means it could be any number of variables not accounted for including not knowing if this was the actual same car. And after my b8.5 blew up on IE software and had multiple issues with it, I will pick the tune that gives the best performance with reliability in mind. Not just pure track numbers. Especially unconfirmed draggy runs. Show the run, or it might as well not have happened.
i agree. after doing extensive research, it seems like the 034 tunes are really the only option flash tuning audis these days. i just flashed stage 1 on my b8.5 s5. i know a few people personally with very high mileage b8.5s running dual pulley with 034, and the car is still running strong.
@@mizaqenyad4269 And its funny because 034 was highly criticized for their methods on some things when they created tunes and parts for the b8.5. But I wish that is who I would have went with because I feel that car would still be on the road.
@@timmoran6280 to be fair, when you look at old forum posts, it seems like in the beginning their tunes definitely had a lot of quality issues. but then at some point in these last 10 years they really changed how they were doing things and became vastly superior to the other tuners. some of my favorite things about the 034 tune are how they run the fans and IC pump at 100% efficiency anytime you're under like 5mph. they also have an option for the tcu tune that disables the AMAX feature from stock, which essentially no lift shifts all the shifts when you're launching. disabling it makes launches a hair slower, but much easier on the gearbox.
@@mizaqenyad4269 Oh yeah, early on there was some criticism. And they admit that. And I think a few parts early on were not up to par. But since that time a lot has changed. I mean it was only 2 years ago that the only company I heard people talking about was APR. Now look at them. But right now, as far as canned tunes go its pretty much 034 or IE. And I also dont like that IE uses a dyno that will usually give higher than normal numbers. This was said by that Vancity guy who blew up his RS3 and his S4. He was using custom tunes at that time. But he has mentioned that IE uses a Mustang dyno instead of a hub dyno like 034.
034 is crap! Their stock turbo full weight record is 10.75 in a COUPE! And you pull off a 10.85 in a 4 door with all season tires at higher DA! Go beat their record on IE! 👍🏻
I also have both tunes for my RS5. I’ve ran quicker on IE. I like both though. Are you using the IE TCU tunes as well? I’ve mixed the TCU tunes and the ECU tunes to see what’s best. I also ran 10.85 with a 1.60 60ft and 2.83 0-60mph. My best on 034 was a 10.98. Also there are some updates coming soon to be on the lookout for from both companies.
Nice review!! I have to be honest, My previous S5 2020 Was full stage 2 93 oct 034 tune, and came from a Unitronic stage 1 + tune, and 034 felt significaly slower!! 034 didnt empress me at all !! Im used to be a 034 fan, im no longer a fan!!
Keep’em coming!!! Trying to decide whether to sell my S4 ( shit load of aftermarket parts installed) and get into a G80 or an RS5. Great content! Sell me on the rs5! 😂
I’m thinking of switching out of my 2018 S4 into an RS5. Mainly because my S4 has the old set of rocker arms. Better to trade up before anything happens. Sucks cuz I’m stage 3 plus! When I pay down some bills I think I’m trading up to a RS5.
@@TwinTurbo10spdon very very rare occasions, the older rocker arms will break and possibly destroy the engine. Audi started using improved rocker arms starting on the later 2018 models. Like I said it’s rare. Probably happens to ppl who abuse the shit out of their car.
If you don’t mind how ugly the g80s are, then those will for sure be better if you’re going to tune/mod the car. Stock vs stock the rs5 and base m3/4 are very on par. The comps are def a bit faster tho. Rumor has it the rs5 comp has higher hp than the base one so idk how those would compare
U should try Unitronic or APR to round out the tests. Those tunes are tried and proven with crazy data to back up claims. I went Stage 1 + on my TTRS and very happy with OEM + power and setup
My stage 2 S4 93 ron tune is the same 1/4 mile and terminal speed as your car. There is absolutely and utter no way its making 560HP on that tune (034 tune)
I am looking at the IE Stage 1 93 Tune as well. One question: do you have to only use 93 afterwards? Or can you still use 91 from time to time but with less hp?
@Peter Georgiev I would keep it 93 to avoid knock or problems. If you only have 91 in your area use 91 tune. You can run 91 tune with 93 octane. I would not run e60-e85 with 91 or 93 tune just fyi. :).
@@aquilaliu I actually have only 95 and 100 in my area, but I guess that's the equivalent to 91/93. Are you running TCU Stage 1 or 2? And Are you overall happy with your IE Stage 1 93? Does it really makes 500+hp?
@Peter Georgiev tcu stage 1 . It's 500+ at the crank not at the wheels. Coming from having a 621whp which is 735at the crank m3 competition. It's definitely not as fast but fast enough...from a dig is fast . Roll is quick enough. If you really want more speed get hpfp and run e85. But hence it's my question. How reliable is it ? I'm not sure . More your push the more it works harder ok the engine .
The rs5 is particularly worth it if you’re not planning on modding. Extra power, significantly better handling, wider tires, and a wide body all with a warranty. Plus you can say you have a porsche engine (macan turbo and panamera s)
Depends on a few factors. We don’t know what your intentions are with the car or why you would consider it over an S5. In my opinion, no. For RS5 money, I’m looking at G8X M cars and W205 C63’s. For the same price as an RS5, I could get a Panamera with the S5’s 3.0T or the RS5’s 2.9TT, except it comes with the Pdk ans has a more performance oriented awd system or the option of rwd. The awd version weighs a good 400lbs more than an RS5 coupe, but manages to be as quick while handling better.
@@PapiAndrey w205 is cool and all but you just have to accept you aren’t gonna grip as good as b9 or g80. G80 performance is definitely the best but damn are they ugly

Excellent video. Love to see back to back comparisons. Surprised at those results
Yeah surprised me too, but this is consistent with what I've been seeing on our RS5 Facebook group.
Keep the videos coming man! One of the few who has actually good information on the b9 lol
IE gives you more because it’s closer to the limits, 034 keeps more safety at the cost of times but worth it for me. Both great choices though.
"Closer to the limits"? IE isn't in the business of blowing up cars. Their tunes are perfectly safe.
@@nicklarson801 never said it wasn’t safe, but it is closer to the limits, it’s obvious in the numbers and from anyone that’s had both.
@@daytonars5 How do you know what the "limits" are though? You are trying to make it sound like IE is unsafe and 034 is conservatively safe.
@@nicklarson801 I’m really not. I said both are great choices. Chill

You just helped me make my choice easy lol
Can wait to see the 93 comparison… does IE offer tuning for stage 3 turbos ?
IE does not have a stage 3. 034 is the only one making impressive numbers with stage 3 at the moment
Be cool To start at like 30mph and mat it and do 60-130, that would take the launch out of it and see which car is making more power, less variables.
Good numbers. Have you ran on prepped surface? Im sure with better surface, you will get better results
I have not tried any prepped surfaces yet, but I'm sure my 60ft would improve even further resulting in a faster time.
are you running full e85? or mix?
