Why Zero 2 Hero
The hardest part of building a Mk8 isn't the power, it's figuring out what you actually need, what works together, and what supports the next step. The Zero 2 Hero Kit answers all of it in one place.
Up to 550+ WHP Capable
Capable of up to 550+ whp on ethanol (E85) with the components in this kit and a properly dialed custom tune. Exact numbers vary by car, dyno, fuel quality, and conditions, but this combination is a proven recipe.
Bundle & Save
Every component in this kit is selected to work as a system, and bundling them together saves you real money compared to buying piece by piece.
Installation
This kit is DIY-friendly if you're comfortable working on the car as most of the install is straightforward bolt-on work. That said, this is a big build. If you're not confident wrenching at this level, a competent shop is the right call.
The Zero 2 Hero Kit removes the guesswork. Every component is selected to work together, supports the same power target, and lines up with the custom calibration the build is designed around. Buy the kit, plan the install, hit up to 550+ whp on a proven recipe.
EQT Vortex XL Turbocharger
The turbo that takes you beyond where staged tuning ends. Built for serious power on the EA888 Evo 4.
EQT MPI Kit
Multi-port injection to support the fuel demand a 550+ whp turbo setup requires.
EQT TMAP Sensor
Big boost requires accuracy beyond the stock sensor limits.
Do88 Intercooler
Proven cooling upgrade to keep intake temps in check under sustained boost.
Blaze Intake
Big turbos need to breathe, make it easier with one of the top performing intakes.
Miltek Downpipe
Less restriction, more flow, and Emissions Compliant, no more pesky CEL
What's Included
Custom Tune for a Custom Build. A 550+ whp build doesn't run on an off-the-shelf tune. Every Zero 2 Hero Kit includes a full custom calibration, developed one-on-one around your exact hardware, fueling, and goals. Flash the base map through the SMD, send a datalog, get a revision, repeat until the tune is exactly where it needs to be.
EQT Sauce Management Device (SMD)
The flash tool for your tune. One device, full control, every map at your fingertips.
Custom Tune
A custom calibration developed one-on-one around your exact build. Required at this power level, and included with the kit.
Got questions? Here's everything we've heard before.
550+ whp is a conservative floor on ethanol (E85) with the components in this kit and a properly dialed custom tune. Exact numbers vary by car, dyno, fuel quality, and conditions.
Most customers running this setup land comfortably above the 500 whp mark.
Yes, this kit is DIY-friendly if you're comfortable working on the car. Most of the install is straightforward bolt-on work. If you're not confident wrenching at this level, a competent shop is the right call.
Yes. The Zero to Hero Kit is a configurator, not a fixed bundle. Pick the options that fit your build, leave out anything you already have, and the bundle pricing adjusts accordingly.
The configurator lets you build the kit with the components you actually need. If you already have a few of the parts, leave them out and the kit price reflects only what you're buying. Bundle pricing applies based on what's in the cart.
The Zero to Hero Kit currently supports:
- Mk8 GTI
- Mk8 Golf R
- 8Y Audi S3
