ED DSG FLASH / DSG HP Limits

Does anyone have 1st hand info on any info about the different dsg flashes for ED30, plus the limits of what the DSG box can reliably take.

Hi,

I know that JD Engineering in NL have tested DSG quite extensively with quite high power and torque and I believe they are pretty happy with DSG (with uprated clutches) on even 500NM of torque.

I've recently had the GIAC DSG flash.

Works well with the right mods.

GIAC claim that the flash uprates the torque handling capacity to 500nm. My car is running over 510nm and is perfectly fine. :driver:

There are a few guys in the states with GT3071R kits on standard DSG with no problems what so ever..

Mine is stage 2+ fully modified K04 turbo on a standard (mechanically) DSG system and its fine..

The same engine spec on a manual and the clutch would have sh*t itself about 20k miles ago! Thats why its funny when you hear people talking about the DSG being soft..

No one has actually managed to break a DSG box yet through anything other than neglecting to service it. With proper care you can run big power / torque through the DSG no probs!  :smiley:

I might turbo the R32 one day and have DSG. Would be hoping for around 500-600bhp if i do, so hoping they can take it  :laugh:
