Ready to race!
I have a K04 and in trying to decide which DSG tune to go with, I have seen that most tunes offer improvements in shift points, launch control, display options, auto up shifting in MM and so on. The one major variation seems to be whether or not clamping force of the clutch packs is occurring or not and to what degree. Some offer various stages of clamping force to hold the added torque output for bigger turbos.
The questions I have regarding this:
-While increasing clamping force will help prevent slippage, does that create more heat and wear on the rest of the transmission such as the mechtronic unit?
-At what point is the clamping force increase too much for the stock cooling system for the DSG?
-Is clamping force increase a preventative measure for clutch wear or should one wait to encounter slippage before moving to a DSG tune with extra clamping force?
