This Audi RS6 came in for a Racingline Stage 1 engine ECU tune and ZF auto unlock and tune.

Yes, we can now unlock your latest ZF auto and tune it!

Stage 1 is all about delivering a transformative power and torque gain, but with no mechanical changes needed.

These are the gains from stock to Stage 1*:

600 PS ---> 697 PS
800 NM ---> 984 NM
591 BHP ---> 687 BHP
590 lbft ---> 726 lbft
441 KW ---> 512 KW

In this upgrade, we also supplied and installed a Racingline panel filter to allow better air flow over the factory air filter.

*All figures as tested on Racingline Superflow 4wd dynamometer (DIN corrected) running normal 98 RON pump fuel.

Twenty years ago, two mechanics looked at the dealership experience and thought: “there’s a better way to do this”...

Robert and Manny built Volkstech on a simple idea: VW Group vehicles deserve specialist-level care, without the dealership price tag or the run-around.

Two decades, thousands of cars, and multiple generations of the same families later, that idea has become Melbourne’s go-to independent workshop for Volkswagen, Audi and Skoda.

Same owners. Same hands-on standard. Same promise.

Here’s to the next 20.

When it comes to unlocking real performance from your VW, Audi, Cupra, or Skoda, one name leads the pack: RacingLine.

With over two decades of motorsport heritage behind them, RacingLine isn’t just another tuning brand. Born in 1997 as Volkswagen Motorsport UK Ltd, they remain a Tier 1 supplier to the Volkswagen Group today, working alongside Volkswagen Motorsport, Audi Sport, and Cupra Racing. That’s motorsport DNA in every calibration.

As an authorised RacingLine partner dealer, Volkstech has priority access to their industry-leading tech, so you get the real deal, done right.

Why OEM+ is different:
Most tuning software just overwrites your factory calibration. RacingLine builds each one from scratch using the same OEM techniques the manufacturers themselves use to reprogram the engine controller at its core.

The result? Genuine power and torque gains, without sacrificing smooth drivability, factory safety margins, or fuel economy.

Ready to unlock your car’s potential? Get in touch today.
