Bentley Continental GTC 4.0 TFSI Stage 1 Remap
On Bentley Continental GTC 4.0 TFSI turbo petrol engines a Stage 1 remap recalibrates the boost pressure, ignition timing, fuelling and torque limiter maps. No hardware is changed and the original software is backed up. The same engine is sold with different stock outputs across generations, so the gain depends on your version.
It depends on the generation and the stock output. 4.0 TFSI engines with 507–528 bhp reach 640 bhp with a Stage 1 remap; the largest gain is +133 bhp (4.0 TFSI V8 507hp). Pick your version in the table below.

GP Power ECU applies the software at its workshop in Hukou, Hsinchu, using EcuPrime-developed files; workshops can also order the file directly.
About the high-performance large-displacement petrol engine (V8, V10, V12, W12, AMG, RS)
This group covers the large-displacement, mostly twin-turbo or supercharged petrol engines of Mercedes-AMG, Audi RS/S, Bentley, Porsche, Maserati, McLaren and similar brands. They make high power from the factory and are managed with tight temperature, knock and torque limits.
How a Stage 1 remap works on the Bentley Continental GTC 4.0 TFSI
A Stage 1 remap looks at torque request, boost pressure, ignition and gearbox torque limits together. Gains are clear on twin-turbo engines; on large naturally aspirated engines the effect of software is more limited. Cooling and gearbox limits are kept.
Pre-remap checklist
- Spark plugs, coils and fuel quality (high octane recommended).
- Cooling system and intercooler efficiency.
- Gearbox torque capacity and oil condition.
- Fault memory and any previous software or hardware changes.
On these engines the result depends heavily on hardware and fuel; figures are confirmed by measurement.
