    That's not rolling launch, that's just the gearbox kicking down. As someone who tunes the EA888 there is no rolling launch options at all on the dsg boxes. For rolling launch it would require building boost thats flooring the throttle and pressing the button at the bottom of throttle to get it to kick down into gear. Lovely example of a golf r tho not me being a asshole at all with what I put above but don't want people messaging MRC saying can I get rolling launch when its not a think on any S3 8V or MK7 or MK7.5

    I know on the Mk6 it was for the HPFP upgrade which gave you loads more midrange torque.

    • @blower1
      @blower1 4 роки тому +3

      Intercooler - that's it on a 'plus'.
      Really it's just stage 2 - but in recent years people have decided that if you upgraded the intercooler then it's now a stage 2+.
      All stage 2's should have intercooler upgrade, but since that's expensive a lot of people have had a detuned stage 2 map to account for the stock intercooler.
      407 bhp - on a happy dyno. Most dyno's nowadays are 'happy' - i.e give you a somewhat inflated crank hp figure to keep the customer happy.
      It won't be far out tho, probably around 390bhp on an accurate dyno such as the surrey rolling road.
