In the past I've mapped a vRS (manual) and to be honest, never thought twice about the torque limits of the clutch, just drove it nicely. I now have an MY2018 superb 280 and am tempted by a stage 1 map, but I don't want to wreck the DSG :) This looks interesting - I used BSR in the past without issue - but the claimed gains are pretty big.. http://www.bsr-tuning.co.uk/products/t3085/ which, assuming the figures are real, begs the question: can the DSG box handle the torque? I've always heard it said that DSG boxes are good for lots more torque, but wikipedia shows this: List of DSG variants[edit] Name Orientation Ratios Max. torque (N·m) Clutch type DQ200 Transversal 7 250 Dry DQ250 Transversal 6 400 Wet DQ380[19] Transversal 7 380 Wet DQ381 Transversal 7 420-430 Wet DQ400e Transversal 6 400 Wet DQ500 Transversal 7 600 Wet DQ511 Transversal 10 550 Wet DL382 Longitudinal 7 500[20] Wet DL501 Longitudinal 7 600 Wet my car is MY2018 and i don't know if it;s DQ250 or DQ400e but either way that table says 400Nm while the map claims 487Nm... So, if all the above is true then the answer is in the question: the map is way too much for the DSG box... but I suppose I'm wondering if anyone has actually put a map with this kind of output on it with the standard DSG box and has either a happy or sorry tale to tell?
