Show original supplier description
The Racingline PCM (Power Control Module) is a plug-in tuning solution designed to enhance the performance of vehicles equipped with the 2.0 TSI EA888 Gen.3 IS38 engine. Developed by RacingLine's in-house calibration experts, this module communicates with the factory ECU to safely increase power and torque levels. The PCM is housed in a billet aluminum case with a carbon fiber mounting bracket, and it comes with a full install kit including a wiring loom. Installation is straightforward for those with basic mechanical knowledge, involving connections to existing sensors. The unit mounts above the battery. For those concerned about warranty, the PCM is completely removable without altering the car's original hardware or software. A PCM blanking unit is included to revert the car to stock settings without removing the hardware. While the PCM provides a significant power boost, RacingLine notes that it is not as sophisticated as their full OEM+ ECU calibrations and power levels are kept lower for smoothness, safety, and reliability. The manufacturer claims a PCM output of 359 BHP and 370 lb-ft, compared to the factory output of 308 BHP and 280 lb-ft (figures may vary slightly based on conditions). RacingLine also offers a free upgrade program to their OEM+ calibrations for customers who purchase the PCM from an authorized OEM+ dealer. This PCM is compatible with various MQB platform vehicles including the VW Golf 7 & 7.5 R, Golf 7 GTI Clubsport, Golf 7.5 TCR, Passat B8, Arteon, Audi S3 8V, Audi SQ2, SEAT Leon Cupra III, Ateca Cupra, and Skoda Superb.
