Volkswagen Audi Group (VAG) DSG Transmission Remap
Most argue that the Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG) is one of the finest auto gearboxes available on the market today. Its ability to change gear in a fraction of a second and predict the drivers next move is a masterpiece of engineering. However, like with all OEM systems, it can be restrictive. Our custom DSG Remap is designed to remove these restrictions and adjust the settings to complement the more performance minded driver.
Our custom DSG Remapping service will alter the following parameters / options:
Increased Torque Limiter
When tuning the engine management system, torque limiters are increased. However, if the vehicle is equipped with a DSG transmission the engine output will be limited by the torque limiter set in the DSG module. We raise the DSG torque limiter to match the engine torque output.
Quicker Shift Speeds
Shift speeds can be increased by up to 20%, this reduces lag and improves acceleration. The quicker shift speeds will also give a smoother transition between gear changes and improve paddle shift response time.
RPM Limits & Shift Set Points
RPM limits and shift set points can be adjusted in drive and sports mode. Adjusting the RPM limiter as part of the engine ECU remap is not enough on a DSG transmission type equipped vehicle. The DSG TCU (Transmission Control Unit) will determine at what RPM the gear shift takes place.
Launch Control
Launch control can be activated (model specific). Launch control will allow your car to make the perfect launch every time, reducing your 0 – 100 time and increasing the fun factor.
Full Manual Mode
Even when in manual mode, stock DSG software will force the gearbox to change up or kick down etc. With our custom DSG Remap we are able to give the driver full control by preventing auto changing when in manual mode (model specific).
Is DSG remapping legal?
Yes, it is legal to remap a DSG transmission. Although you should inform your insurance company of any alterations made to your vehicle.
What Manufacturers’ vehicles are supplied with a DSG type gearbox?
Audi (S Tronic), BMW (DCT), Bugatti, Lamborghini, Porsche (PDK), SEAT, Škoda, Volkswagen Passenger Cars; Golf, Passat, etc, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles.
