Default Re: MD Titanium Petrol or Diesel?

If you're trying to get off the line quickly in the diesel, don't floor it. Get it rolling, then open the throttle.
even better Stage It. foot on the brake, slight pressure on the accelerator, lift off the brake this all can happen within 2 sec. There's no movement in a dsg trans so no detrimental affects and it's like being launched. I can go a little harder on my trans as it's a slushbox and it's nice when needed.

Good call on the ecoboost having a slushbox forgot about that, it's quite pleasant and a sharp shifter, it rolls and roooooooooolllllllllsssssss for ever.
