Title: dsg remap essential with stage 2
Post by: oak_grun on July 06, 2016, 10:04:45 am
Hi, after getting the bits fitted i have finally got it booked in for a stage 2 map at R-tech.  :driver:

When i booked it in they said that i need to get the dsg mapped aswell  - i wasn't aware that this necessary tbh...

Is anyone running a stage 2 edition without a dsg remap?

Thanks

think its to up the torque settings on the clutch packs more than anything.
if r tech say it needs it then it probably does, not the type of people to try and sell you things you don't need.

seen loads of people ask for stage 1 with dsg map and they've told customer not to bother with dsg map and spend there money elsewhere instead

If you go stage 2 without DSG map, your car will break.....

No joking, a DSG map increase the torque limit as the shift quickness. I don't think ive met anyone who regretted a DSG map tbh

That's for stage 1 as torque isn't as high as stage 2  :P

I ran stage 2 Revo without a DSG map for a while with no issues. Probably a less aggressive map.

Stage 2 is renouned for being a less aggressive map that stage 1.

iknow I was just using this as an example that r tech don't tell you your car needs something unless it actually does
