Title: 2.0t fsi wotbox with launch?
Post by: s3dubbin on January 15, 2011, 10:35:15 am

Hey peeps! Can the people in the know tell me a little on the cons of the wotbox/flatshift if there are any? Any known probs/damage to mechanicals? I obviously know that launching the car hard is not good for it but i am more after the electronic gizmo side of things. What is that little box of tricks actually stopping/cutting when on shift? Thanks a lot. Stevie.

Johnny C used to have one IIRC. Maybe some threads by him about it.

Yeah sure he has one on the tt aswell but i'm a daily driver too, if they are that good and there is so many petrolheads on here surely they would be everywhere??
