I would say put the tc off as it holds back the power a bit too much so just get used to launching the car with it off and you should see better times :happy2:

I'm trying to see where my car is at with the 0-60. I'm using torque pro app with the OBD plug in, do I need to turn the traction control off? My wheels seem to spin a little even with TC, well I get the TC light pop up on my dash when I put my foot down so wouldn't this just make them spin more?

My best so far is 7.5 so obviously a little off the mark for a DSG

What tyres have you got? Good ones, might make 1/10th or a little more?

Could it be down to using regular unleaded opposed to V-POWER?

Just want to make sure theres no problems with turbo or anything etc

There...you've nailed it. You should run 91 octane = 95 RON at all times.
But your best 0 to 60mph et will be 'without TC on' and your ability to throttle just before the point of traction loss.
