DSG remap on sale in the USA

^^^^
Lots of people say they find S too harsh sometimes but I don't - Probably because I don't stay in S for long and shift to Manual.

Robin, my understanding is that the DSG will not change up automatically in manual mode with the remap. It will do in sport and drive though. :smiley:

--- Quote ---Raise the launch control to a specified RPM
Raise the rev limit to 7500RPM
Allow full driver control of up-shifts, no more automatic change up at the engine limiter
Disable the HUGELY annoying kick-down feature
Raise the torque limit to 500ft/lbs and get rid of the pulling back that high power/torque DSG cars experience
Sets the shift speed at max for all throttle openings
Speed up the response time from clicking the paddle to the box changing gear
Quicker downshifts

This is the biggy for me, can be so annoying on mine. Do you not get it Jonny, just after changing up about 4500-5000rpm under hard acceleration?

makes you wonder Ben what your car would run 1/4, with the reduction removed and a faster change !!!!! :evilgrin:

I don't know if I'd want or need most of the remaps features, but still I find myself falling back to the one real benefit..
I'm not interested in launch control - totally understand why it's required for the S3/R32 owners though.
There's no point raising the limiter on mine, as power is tailing off by then - K04 stuff I'm sure it's a benefit.
I use D mode for economy, so I don't want that playing with. I have a boring 13 mile drive to work and get an average of 37mpg, I'd rather save fuel commuting to burn enthusiastically elsewhere.
But to be able to have 100% control over manual mode is exactly what I want. I wonder if the control box they're planning will allow you to spec individual features?
