IE POWERlink DIRECT PORT FLASH TOOL

IE's own in-house developed POWERlink cable gives you the control to unlock your engine’s true potential from your own garage or driveway. Enjoy the freedom to quickly reflash your car’s engine control unit (ECU) or transmission control unit (TCU) with IE’s line of performance tunes. The cable simply plugs into your vehicle’s OBD-2 port delivering instant access to choose different IE Tune stages to match installed hardware, take advantage of different fuel octanes, flash back to stock, perform engine diagnostics, read/clear codes and gather high-quality operating data via logging.

This listing is for the IE POWERlink Flash Tool only, IE performance ECU and transmission tunes are sold separately.

FLASH YOUR OWN CAR

Simply plug your IE POWERlink cable into your car's OBD-II port and the USB port on a Windows-powered laptop with the included IE Flash Wizard software. The software will automatically detect your vehicle's ECU and show you a list of compatible engine ECU and transmission tunes available. Choose your tune and in a matter of minutes you will have added serious power to your VW or Audi, it's that easy!

Mobile flashing support is not available for VW MK5 or MK6 generation 2.0T or 2.5L (includes 3C, B6, 8P, 8U, and 5N chassis). These engine ECUs require a Windows 10 or newer laptop for tuning. For a full list of supported mobile flashing vehicles, click here.  
Important note: Existing POWERlink V4 owners may need to update dongle firmware to enable Bluetooth mobile flashing
