How much will a chip improve performance times on a 2.0T? Speculate with common sense.

Re: i hope other MK2 owners aren't as dim as you...
Well I have the new 2.0T TT too and it is stock for now and when I mash the peddle I dont get any torque steer and the ESP kicks in when needed. My old FWD TT had a good bit of torque steer but with the new mechanical steering in the TT it really helps. I will be getting the GIAC chip too and cant wait to feel that extra torque and power. A little tire spinning can be fun any way.

Re: Don't listen to him, i've got a modded front track A3 and it hooks up just fine...
That must be the key then b/c I test drove a 2.0 for a while and I had the front wheels spining from 1st to 2nd. As well I did notice torque steer when I slammed the gas down.

Good question - don't have the answer - but with the exception of the clutch - the box is the same
which might mean the diff is the same. I watched Stasis install the LSD in their A3 when my TT was in their shop. Not hard if you have the right tools.

Torque off the line, HP afterwards...
torque steer isn't just a phenomenon which occurs from 0mph...it can occur at ANY speed.
come on....you're smarter than that yeah?
