    Got 201.9kw and 455.2nm I don't think the guy knew how to use the DSG on my car, he said he can't keep the gear on 3rd. Was abit disappointed with the numbers because I'm sure other people got higher power with the same mods as mine.

    ^ theres a trick with the DSG's.....you need to hold the paddle shifter down (on the steering wheel) for the duration of the dyno run and it locks the car into that particular gear.

    OHH!! I didn't know that. Hold the shift up or shift down? This is a really good info for when I do my next one.

    Could not be as bad as my run with a stage 2 and downpipe - 166kw!

    Getting it sorted now.

    Sometimes getting a bad result ends up with a good result in the end

    That's the value of running on a dyno day and having other cars to do direct comparison on the same day and same dyno.

    Hopefully it doesn't cost too much to get sorted...

    Waiting for the tuner to go through all the data. Looks like I will be going to another tuner regardless. Try get some money back from them.

    What does it go like on the road? Was it idling for ages outside before being run. Heating up the intercooler?

    I did a dyno day years ago and my well modified G60, barely made std power. Along with 2 other modded G60s with chips from the same tuner.

    We just laughed it off, dyno lottery...

    I believe you can hold either - but i hold the shift up paddle. As long as the paddle is depressed, the car will not change up a gear and also should not kick down a gear.

    No it was not sitting around running - was off for about 2 hrs.

    On road it seams to be ok - sometimes if feels sluggish. Sometimes it really wakes up and hammers. It is quite strange that it does this.

    I think I might just be used to the power ATM.
