VAG 2.0 TFSI ECU + DSG Tuning study

Here at Dj's Custom Remaps, we are always looking at enhancing our world-famous 2.0 TFSI performance tune, DSG has given us the perfect opportunity to do just that. All Dj's Custom Remaps DSG tuning files have been predeveloped by Viezu. Viezu decided that there would be no better way to do this than to run the vehicle on their state of the art Mustang MD500 AWD dyno, and show the effects of the calibration changes had to the power output and the gearbox shift speeds.


Combining the industry standard power runs with their unique ability to run ¼ timing runs on the dyno. With a full drag tree setup and extremely precise timing system, They are able to accurately measure the real world improvements of the DSG remap. We start the development by getting a baseline of the vehicles stock timings over the ¼ mile dyno run. This showed consistent readings with the drive gearbox setting being taken as the marker for the base and modified testing with the most consistent timings over the ¼ mile runs. Below you can see the original timings for the DRIVE setting on the gearbox over the ¼ mile timed runs.


The Kess3 is then connected to the DSG communication port and the data was read from the gearbox control unit. With this we were then able to make the necessary modifications to the software to optimise the shifting of the gearbox within the capabilities of the ECU and most importantly within the thresholds and capabilities of the gearbox itself.


Dj's Custom Remaps are able to recalibrate a range of DSG parameters, everything from RPM shift points, torque monitoring and threshold limits, RPM limits and of course? launch control!


Following the modification of the DSG bespoke remap only, your Audi will improving the ¼ mile times by over a tenth of a second. Running the car in normal DRIVE mode doesn’t truly show the fullest extent of the improvements that can be felt when running in triptonic or SPORT mode, but due to tyre slip in the more aggressive sport and tip Tronic settings we had to use DRIVE for consistency.


And if we uploaded our performance tuning file too on top of the DSG remap you'll truly see the improvements that Dj's Custom Remaps can offer. This time the car will be over 6 tenths of a second quicker nearly over ¼ mile. Your Audi will have run over 1.4 seconds faster if the additional power could have been put down on the rollers. Unfortunately the 50 hp increase to the engine over powered the tyres and equalled a lot of wheel spin. The feedback from one owner from on the road testing really had to be heard to be believed. “Phenomenally quicker to shift!” “the launch control is sooo addictive!” “I can’t believe how much nicer to drive the car is!”
