Tuned Stage 2 MK7 Golf R. Track weapon DSG or Manual?
Discussion
Thinking of buying a Golf R as my daily with a view to 'upgrade' it to a Stage 2 tune of approx 370- 400 using APR or Revo.
Question is as the OE clutch is pretty pants and won't handle these power levels (even stock clutches are known to fail) will DSG soak up heavy track usage as they can tend to overheat and cause selection problems whilst on track.....especially pre Gen VAG platforms ie ED30 Mk6R and S3.
Is there a decent reliable clutch upgrade or is the new DSG stronger?
I note the RS3 uses a 7 speed DSG....I assume it's stronger still?
