Hi,

I am considering remapping my Audi A5 2015 2.0 TFSI with an automatic transmission (S tronic). The remap I´m considering is a Stage 1, which will increase the power from 225bhp/350Nm to 290bhp/440Nm.

My question is if the gearbox can withstand the increased torque? It´s widely discussed at different forums what the maximum torque on the S tronic transmission is, but I haven´t read a clear answer. Wikipedia says 600Nm, but that may not be the best source. I asked my local audi dealership, but the guy behind the desk couldn´t give me an answer.

I´ve also heard that there may be problems with the turbo. Is this something I should worry about?

Thank in advance!

I don't know, yet I'm curious as well. Is the gearbox used in other models, perhaps a V-6 with 300+ hp?
