**Please Note: Type III hard anodizing of aluminum is considered as a functional surface coating process. While we always aim for color consistency, color variations may exist from batch to batch due to the nature and variables in the anodizing process.
034Motorsport 2-Piece Floating Brake Rotor Upgrades for BMW G20 M340i and Toyota A90/91 GR Supra are a complete replacement brake rotor, designed to work flawlessly with the factory calipers. Upgrading your rotors will increase overall braking performance in street, track, and HDPE driving conditions, as they keep your brakes cool and strong all day long!
With our lightweight design, the rotors retain proper thermal mass in the rings to adequately capture, and dissipate heat.
The central hat portion of the 034Motorsport rotor is made of 6061-T6 aircraft specification aluminum. The disc is constructed out of a proprietary metal alloy that can withstand immense braking temperatures while holding form. The rotor utilizes 48 directionally curved vanes to forcefully flow cool air through the rotor to dissipate heat.
The face of the rotor utilizes J-Slot slots to clean the pad and surface of contaminants and allows hot pad outgassing, all while reducing overall braking noise compared to a traditional slotted rotor.
The rotor and hat have a floating mount system that utilizes high strength alloy steel bobbins. The pins take the load from braking actions while maintaining the axial and radial float between the hat and disc, allowing for safe expansion and contraction from heat.

034Motorsport 2-Piece Floating Front & Rear Brake Rotor Upgrades for BMW G8x M3/M4 are a complete replacement brake rotor, designed to work flawlessly with the factory calipers. Upgrading your front rotors will increase overall braking performance in street, track, and HDPE driving conditions, as they keep your brakes cool and strong all day long!
Our lightweight design retains proper thermal mass in the rings to adequately capture heat while utilizing directionally curved vanes to forcefully flow cool air through the rotor to dissipate heat.
Advantages of J-Slot over Drilled Rotors:
Typically, OEM rotors that are drilled are first cast and then drilled, which creates additional stress points that weaken structural integrity, making them more prone to cracking as they go through heat cycles and wear over time. To address these concerns, 034Motorsport engineers opted for a J-Slot design over a drilled rotor, which effectively clears contaminants from the pad and rotor surfaces while allowing for hot pad outgassing without reducing the structural integrity of the rotor.
True 2-Piece Design:
While BMW employs a 2-piece rotor design utilizing pins in which the rotor ring can slightly expand and contract compared to the rotor hat, the rotor ring is not fully floating. Additionally, the outer friction surface cannot be replaced individually, adding unnecessary cost to brake services.
034Morsport employs a high-strength steel bobbin-style floating 2-piece rotor design versus the BMW OEM pin-style design. 034Motorsport’s 2-Piece Rotors allow the rotor ring to “float” on the central hat while the rotor ring expands and contracts, preventing the likelihood of cracks and rotor warpages in high-performance driving scenarios.
The central hat on 034Motorsport 2-Piece rotors is crafted from 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, while the brake disc is made from a proprietary alloy that is able to withstand extreme braking temperatures while maintaining structural integrity. The high carbon content of the brake disc also allows for the rotor to take a lot of heat and dissipate it quickly. The brake disc utilizes 72 directionally curved vanes within the rotor itself to channel cool air through the rotor, significantly improving heat dissipation and thermal efficiency without reducing thermal mass.

The high carbon content of the brake disc also allows for the rotor to take a lot of heat and dissipate it quickly. These rotors improve thermal capacity by utilizing directionally curved cooling vanes to forcefully flow cool air through the rotor and are profiled specifically to improve heat dissipation compared to the OE rotor vane design.
Note: For F8X M2 CS, M3/M4 Competition/CS, or M4 GTS owners with the factory M-CCB Carbon Ceramic Brake Package (2NK) looking for a much more cost-effective brake rotor alternative, the 034Motorsport 2-Piece Floating Rotors are a direct swap for your factory carbon ceramic brake rotors!
The brake calipers and dimensions of the carbon ceramic brake rotors are identical to the calipers and iron brake rotors in the 2NH Brake Package found in the M2 Competition and M2 CS, making them cross-compatible.
034Motorsport 2-Piece Rotors have been thoroughly tested in high-intensity motorsport events, proven to significantly improve braking and thermal headroom and for extreme performance street and track driving, making them the perfect replacement rotor for your BMW F8X.

Performance:
Stock: 264 HP / 279 TQ Stage 1 91: 307 HP / 348 TQ Stage 1 93: 334 HP / 370 TQ Stage 1+ E85: 357 HP / 396 TQ (Coming Soon!)
Dynamic+ ECU Features:
Thermal Management Safety Strategies:
With increased power, comes increased heat. With increased heat, comes the need for additional management. For charge air temperature, 034Motorsport has implemented key safety features to keep your engine running optimally and safely in virtually any condition - just like the OEM calibration. Substantial effort was spent on balancing the trade off of charge temp for power, and improving the compressor efficiency so that it doesn't generate too much charge temp.
Charge Air Temp: When the charge temp exceeds 80*C there is a reduction in power output. When the charge temp exceeds 85*C there is a more significant reduction in power output. This charge temp limitation is there to prevent knock events, which can severely damage a motor. With these safety measures in place, you can confidently drive your car, from the top of Pikes Peak to Death Valley, knowing the factory ECU has optimal performance and safety covered..
Coolant Temp/Fan Strategy: From the factory, Volkswagen likes to run hotter water temps to reduce fluid friction losses from cooler, more viscous oil. While better for efficiency, this strategy becomes a safety issue when loads and heat are increased. 034Motorsport calibrators have rescaled the coolant temperature targets and fan control strategies to target lower coolant temperatures when in higher heat conditions, allowing the car to run within a safe heat range rescaled for the added heat that comes from tuning the engine. Once again, this means that 034Motorsport calibrators have kept your confidence in safety fully intact from the OEM configuration.
Start/Stop Button Memory:
Dynamic+ Tuning for the EA888.3 2.0T retains the Start/Stop engine functionality, but allows users to set the memory for the system based on preference. If you do not want the Start/Stop system to run, turn it off via the in-cabin button and the car will store that selection even after key cycling the car. If you would like it to stay on, select it to be on via the in-cabin button. This is done in a completely OEM fashion, helping enhance the overall experience of driving your car!
Free Revving in Neutral and Park
The rev-limiter is now removed while in Neutral and Park. Impress friends and annoy those around you with limitless ease!
Accurate Boost Reporting
For vehicles equipped with the digital boost gauge, your vehicle will now accurately scale boost levels!
Optimized for Manual & DSG Equipped Vehicles!
034Motorsport calibrators spent equal time refining the ECU calibrations on DL382 G1 & G2 and 6-speed manual transmission equipped for optimized performance and smooth drivability without compromising the reliability and safety of your engine and transmission.
Dynamic+ TCU Features:
Stage 1 TCU Tune:
Note: The 034Motorsport Stage 1 TCU Tune is available for G1 DL382 equipped vehicles only. G1 DL382 Transmissions are found in 2018-Early 2019 build-date vehicles.
Torque Safety Strategy Enhancements: The Dynamic+ ECU Tuning accurately reports torque values to the TCU to ensure that all safety systems are intact in both control units, and the added torque from tuning is properly adjusted for when driving/shifting, including all safety systems designed to protect the engine and transmission. This results in better shift quality as the transmission is not having to reduce engine torque or having to adapt to misreported inputs.
Clutch Pressure Increases: In order to safely apply the increased horsepower and torque, DSG Clutch Pressures are increased in all drive modes. Expect to feel firmer and more solid shifts!
Optimized Shift Points: In order to take advantage of the increased powerband from the turbocharger, Dynamic+ Tuning optimizes the shift points in Drive & Sport Mode to maximize acceleration while retaining smooth drivability.
Improved Shift Speeds: To further enhance the acceleration of your Audi, the DL382 shift times are dramatically decreased in all driving modes, which ultimately results in quicker acceleration.
Launch Control Optimizations: From the factory, the DL382 launch control strategies used are very neutered and designed for a vehicle on a non-optimal surface with low-grip tires. 034Motorsport Engineers have optimized the launch by raising the factory RPM stall to take advantage of a better surface and a grippier tire. This ensures that your vehicle will 60ft much more effectively and efficiently, bringing down your 0-60 and 1/4mi times!
Kickdown Switch Disabled in Manual Mode: When in Manual mode, you no longer need to worry about accidentally pushing through the kickdown switch on the throttle pedal!
Gear Display in Instrument Cluster: From the factory, the instrument cluster only displayed "D" or "S" when in Drive or Sport. Now, your instrument cluster will let you know what transmission mode you are in, as well as the gear!
Dynamic+ ECU Software is only for 2017 - 2020 EA888.3 2.0T equipped vehicles. If you have a 2021+ vehicle, your vehicle is equipped with a EA888 Gen 4 engine which we do not currently support. Dynamict+ TCU Software is only for 2017 - Early 2019 DL382s, as later models are currently unflashable. ECU Tuning can be run safely on all 2017 - 2020 Models with or without TCU Software. 034Motorsport Dynamic+ Tuning is also suited for rare 6-speed manual transmission equipped B9 Audi A4 & A5!
The wait is over. You can now upgrade the failure-prone and inadequate PCV Hose system on your Audi B9/B9.5 EA839 V6 Engine with the 034Motorsport PCV Breather Hose upgrade, and for S4, S5, RS4, and RS5 owners, take the upgrade a step further with the 034Motorsport Catch Can Kit.
034Motorsport has spent years reverse engineering, designing, and testing a comprehensive line of PCV system upgrades for the EA839 V6 Engines found in B9/B9.5 Audi's to fix a critical design flaw in the factory PCV hose system that could lead to catastrophic failure. The 034Motorsport PCV Breather Hose cleanly and perfectly remedies these design flaws while offering superior crankcase ventilation for all stages. Whether you're stock or tuned, the 034Motorsport PCV Breather Hose is a critical safety and reliability upgrade. See the product page for details on this design flaw and how the 034Motorsport PCV Breather Hose is the perfect solution.
For those looking to not only remedy the design flaw in the factory PCV system and take PCV System performance a step further, the 034Motorsport Catch Can Kit for B9/B9.5 Audi S4, S5, RS4, and RS5 is the perfect choice. Utilizing the same refined PCV breather hose design and while maintaining both sources of vacuum, the 034Motorsport Catch Can Kit offers great crankcase ventilation while also trapping any oil particulates that would normally escape into the turbo inlet and be burned off. This oil is then drained directly back into the Oil Pan, reducing oil consumption and carbon build-up. See the product page for details on how this works.
These products are released under a Pre-Order at a 10% discount as we are just finishing up production. Orders placed during the Pre-Order period will be shipped Early December 2024.

Rolling KLi-MAX
No Auto Upshift
Second Gear Launch
All New Features:
Stage 2 & 3 TCU - Rolling KLi-MAX
By flashing the "+ Rolling KLi-MAX" TCU file, you are enabling Rolling KLi-MAX! KLi-MAX shifting is the activation of 034Motorsport optimized AMAX gear shifts, something that is already used as a shift strategy during the use of launch control, allowing for the quickest and fastest shifts. KLi-MAX shifts minimize the torque reduction that takes place during a gear shift while increasing necessary clutch and line pressures to safely transfer more torque throughout the gear shift.
With the addition of Rolling KLi-MAX, this shifting strategy can now be engaged at any time, not just when using launch control! This shift strategy is now added to additional transmission modes (Sport & Manual) and will activate at wide-open throttle over 5,500 RPMUsers will audibly notice the lack of "farts" while on this file at wide-open-throttle. This strategy reduces the potential for transmission slip and allows for the fastest shifts possible, and is best used when looking to maximize straight-line acceleration from a roll.
See our How-To video for helpful tips and instructions on how to activate and operate this file.
Note: We do not recommend toggling Rolling KLi-MAX during significant prolonged wide-open throttle driving, like during an HDPE Track Session.
Stage 2 & 3 TCU - No Auto Upshift
By flashing the "+No Auto Upshift" file available in your flashing portal, your vehicle will not automatically upshift in manual mode. Your vehicle instead will hold at the engine redline until you shift your car. This feature is especially helpful when driving during HDPE or Autocross events where you want to ensure the car stays in the exact gear you want. This is a feature that is standard with the factory RS5, which we now offer to you with your S4, S5, or SQ5!
Note: Stage 1 & 2 ECU Customers must be updated to the latest ECU variant (R3.1 or Later) to run this TCU file variant. We recommend all customers ensure they are flashed to the latest available version of their ECU tune visible on their flashing portal. If your current ECU variant matches the current available file, then you are up to date and ready to go!
Stage 3 TCU Only - Second Gear Launch
By flashing the "+2nd Gear Launch" file available to Stage 3 TCU customers in their flashing portal, your will be able to toggle between launching in 1st gear or 2nd gear while in the car. 034Motorsport engineers have implemented the option of 2nd Gear Launch for Stage 3 customers as a way to help manage wheelspin in lower traction surfaces. In times or locations where you experience excessive wheel spin while launching in 1st gear, you can select to launch in 2nd gear to better apply the significant torque of Stage 3.
See our How- To video for helpful tips and instructions on how to activate and operate this file.
Note: We do not recommend using this file when grip conditions are high or optimal. In our testing, we have found that the fastest accelerating launch method when grip is ideal is to launch in 1st gear.
Why Are There New Revisions?
We at 034Motorsport strive to provide the most up to date and optimized files available for your car and continually look for opportunities to improve on what we produce. As technology advances or a platform develops, we refine and Improve files as needed. In some cases, these are very minor adjustments, whereas, in others, these updates can bring a whole round of feature additions and performance changes. More info can be found below on how to identify a large change vs a minor/unnoticeable change based on the revision number.
Revision Nomenclature Breakdown
Revisions will be listed under 3 main categories, as shown in the numbering of the revision.
Example: R7.1.5
The first digit signifies a Major Revision/version change/count. In this example, 7 would be the most recent of major revisions. These numbers change when a major feature has been added or updated (such as Advanced Launch Control or higher power output files).
The second digit signifies a minor revision/version change/count or changes to files that are not considered major but are noticeable in the overall performance and refinement of the car. In this example, the 1 in R7.1.5 would mean that a minor change was added over the base R7 file.
The third digit signifies a sub-revision/version change/count or changes that are very minor/unnoticeable. These adjustments are generally box-code specific adjustments or bug fixes that change parameters of the tuning that most will never notice in their day to day driving but refines the overall file by solving minor bugs. In this example, the 5 in R7.1.5 would be the 5th minor sub-revision to this file on this box code.
Note: Not every box code needs the same sub-revision changes. Often they are box code specific and not necessary for every box code. If there is no sub-revision number listed for your file on your portal, then there is no need for an update in that category of the patch.
