All Things Mk5 > Mk5 General Area
Just had the GIAC DSG software fitted!!!
Hurdy:
What can I say....bloody great bit of software that makes the DSG what it should have been from the factory
7k+ shifting ftw.
Faster shifts up AND down the box
Smoother shifting up and down the box (didn't think this was possible)
Better "blipping" noise from the zorst
Manual mode is now a manual (but if you push it continuously it will push through the rev limite to the next gear if you want it to)
Faster set off from a standstill
Better torque handling capability
Torque limiter relaxed in 1st and second gears
60mph is now possible in second and 90+ in 3rd
It now releases the full rpm power potential of the K04, so no more RR days with the box killing the power just over 6200rpm
Option of launching with up to 3,700 revs with launch control (and 4,500 for the R32 boys, which must be handy )
There are other companies who are developing DSG remaps, HPA, Revo etc, but they will find it hard to better unless you are able to customise the settings yourself with a handheld programmer
Even though it is damp out I can tell the difference. I reckon it is good for probably 0.3 to 0.4 off the standing quarter :jumping:
Honestly, if you have a DSG and want to get the best from it, a DSG remap (whoever you choose to do it) is an absolute must have
Roll on my Quaife arriving now to knock a few more portions off the QTR mile. :evilgrin:

If this had been around when I was speccing my GTI, then I would have definitely gone for DSG!!
Very exciting modification! You must take me for a spin in your car one day John so that I can feel it!
