Custom-Code DSG tuning

Thanks Paul :D

RoccoR PM'd you.

Gavin

Ditto what ForceFed is saying, Gavin tweaked my ride with a Stage 1 on the ECU and the DSG last week. Makes everyday driving far smoother and in Drive hangs on to third gear to use the new down low torque in lieu of changing down to second gear as before. The amount of extra torque down low in any gear is amazing, it all feels so effortless. Highly recommended, thanks Gavin.

And did I read that right - we'll get launch control with this? (probably includes spinning wheels and wheel hop I guess). Does this also change down earlier in D to avoid driving under 1700rpm where there's no power?


Thanks

We get LC standard on Tigs with 7-spd DSG (hardy, har, har) ;)

Hey Gavin,

Any update on when DQ500 7speed is coming out for us Tig owners?

Shall we expect it by this Christmas or next? ;)

How quick does she get to 100kph with it?

I'm pretty sure Tig comes standard with launch control. I think with the DSG upgrade you can increase the RPM at launch.

Though why you'd want to do that in a Tig I'm not so sure. Sitting at the lights with the engine at 4,000RPM in a Tig? :confused:

If you wanted to put it down the 1/4 mile then I'd understand it but I prefer to drive my Tig in stealth mode and take them by surprise.

Hi mate,
haven't actually done a proper timing run. Apart from lack of facilities up here (read none) - I don't have a copilot to time while I drive. I did a 0-100 using Torque on smartphone (no LC but) and got 7.9s without really trying (ie. in "D").
Took my brother for a spin recently (he has hotted up EF Falcon) and his response when I used LC was "holy sh*t", so guessing it's not bad :P

Yup - would be nice to know, but more about driveability than bragging rights IMO :)

Having said that - am possible coming to Brissie next month, and might do a speed run or two. Can anyone turn up at Qld Raceway (Ipswich), or do they only do them at certain times/events?

I have been leaning on them this weekend mate and no commitment on a release date :(

Well then I wouldn't be too worried if you have LC or not since I'm in mid-high 6's. :)

No doubt it feels faster in a bigger car. Or is it the other way around :confused:


oh btw I did actually buy the HP DSG tune last week, so far so good (review is in his thread)
