Greetings,
I’ve bought a scirocco 1.4 TSI DSG, and now awaiting for it’s arrival.
I would like to mod it with ABT but most of the 1.4 TSI tuned are manual shifters.
Mine is a DSG base and I’ve read many forums stating that the maximum limit of
Torque is 250NM, while stock is already 240NM. Any excessive tuning will damage the gearbox and engine in long run. Please help me clear my doubts as this are the few key things that I’m worrying about. Thanks
yes your gearbox will damage.
put a gen 2 cluth in an it wil be good.
we do dsg mods on that type of gearbox so the gearbox stays in one pice.
