The Racingline VWR030001‑RS3 PCM is the ultimate plug‑and‑play solution for the Audi RS3 8Y (2021+) with the 2.5 TFSI EA855 Evo engine. The latest 8Y generation RS3 cannot yet be tuned using traditional methods, making the PCM ideal for owners concerned about warranty or those who want a safe, reversible power increase while full ECU calibrations are not yet available.

What It Does

• PCM stands for Power Control Module — a standalone PCB that communicates with the factory ECU to safely increase power and torque.

• Developed by RacingLine’s in‑house calibration team over the past 12 months, the module delivers smooth, linear gains across the entire rev range, not just peak power.

• Expected output gains: 400 HP → 452 HP and 500 Nm → 601 Nm, depending on engine variant.

Key Features

• Two PCM versions available:

  • VWR030001‑RS38YOPF → for DNWC engines with OPF/GPF

  • VWR030001‑RS38Y → for DXHA engines without OPF/GPF

• Complete installation kit included: billet‑aluminum PCM case, carbon‑fibre mounting bracket, wiring harness tailored to RS3 8Y, and plug‑in disconnect for easy removal.

• Designed for perfect OE‑quality fitment at the front of the engine bay.

• Works seamlessly with a standard RS3 8Y but is also calibrated to complement additional hardware upgrades like intake, intercooler, or exhaust systems.

• Reversible and non‑permanent: module can be removed at any time without trace.

Free OEM+ Calibration Upgrade

• RacingLine offers a free upgrade to full OEM+ calibrations when available for all PCM owners who purchase via an OEM+ dealer and register their unit online.

• Eligible for Phase 1 and beyond updates, allowing the PCM to be swapped and updated with the latest optimized calibration.

• Installation fees may apply from OEM+ dealers, but RacingLine does not charge for the calibration update itself.

Recommended Use

Ideal for RS3 8Y owners who want safe, reversible performance gains, improved throttle response, and smoother torque delivery, without permanent ECU flashing. Perfect for daily driving, spirited driving, or track use.
