DSG Gearbox Tuning

Top Tuning also offer DSG (Direct Shift Gearbox) gearbox tuning. The DSG is a semi automatic system that has two clutches. When a gear is selected the next gear is automatically pre-selected allowing for much faster gear changes. This system is more fuel efficient when compared to single clutch systems as less energy is wasted when transferring the power to the wheels.

DSG Gearbox Benefits

DSG Automatic Gearboxes have maximum torque limits set by the manufacturer. We can increase this value allowing the vehicle to perform at its maximum potential. We raise the DSG torque limiter to match the engine torque being produced resulting in much better performance. We can also adjust RPM limits and shift set points resulting in overall improved performance. Other benefits include:

  • Up to 20% faster gear changes

  • Reduced Lag

  • Improved acceleration

  • Smoother gear changes

  • Modified and improved shift points
