Hey Ben

For some part numbers VW offer an changeover program. If you havent asked yet it might be worth investigating. You trade in your faulty mechatronics unit on the new one and it can save up to $1000 from memory?

Just put it back on the dyno with the new DSG box in it.

Pretty happy

Glad you got everything worked out.

Definitely some of the best numbers/smoothest curve I've seen on a pump gas k04. I believe dyno dynamics reads ~12% lower than a dynojet.

yea The Dyno Dynamics is known throughout the industry as being the "heartbreaker" dyno

PS this was with W/M ?

Raced the car last night. Felt really strong and went harder than I thought. We were aiming for a 12.5 to get the Aus record but it went 12.3 straight out of the box and ended up running 12.266@113.64

Next steps are to try and run an 11 on pump gas. No one has done that anywhere in the world.

Changes we're looking at:
- Addition of WMI
- Slightly more boost
- DSG tune from GIAC
- Less weight (car and driver)
- Drop the exhaust for less back pressure

With all that it should be able to shave two tenths. See how we go.
