Initial round of road tuning complete.
Running a low boost (~23psi) file on Caltex 98 (behaves like 95 under boost).
I’ll stick it on the dyno soon to tune a higher boost file and “proper” 98 (BP Ultimate).

I'm running the TTE475 now but just with a low boost file. I'm really happy with how responsive it is even running at 20psi. Yes there's a bit more lag than with the stock IS20 but the thing I was most concerned about was ending up with something that is really laggy.
I'm thinking that a good DSG tune will also sort out the responsiveness also as it should keep the revs in the right range to maintain boost and fast shifting to complete the package.

That’s with LC and DSG tune. LC is set to 4,000rpm but they have taken a fair bit out of 1st and 2nd gear for mechanical sympathy so it actually doesn’t launch quite as hard as stock. Also it was mildly moist last night so traction may not have been the best.
It’s going on the dyno at the end of next week so should have a before/after comparison soon.

Does the TCU tune have adjustable LC ie you can dial in higher RPM depending on amount of throttle- mine is set to 3000 at 1/2 throttle, 3500 at full throttle and 4000 with kick down. So depending on the conditions you can pick a suitable launch RPM.
What sort of power do you think you’re running? 250 kw atw?

Not sure on adjustable launch RPM may have to try that out later.
I’m nowhere near 250kwaw at the moment. I would say more like ~200 is my guess.
There’s 3-4 psi more boost to put in and each psi will give you 10kwaw give it take. Plus the fact I’m running a low spec/grade 98 fuel means I can’t run anywhere near as aggressive timing.
