APR Transmission Control Unit (TCU) Remap - DQ381

Optimized part throttle drive and sport maps
At lower throttle input, the system doesn’t race towards the highest gear. In doing so, we keep the turbo spooled between shifts for a more enjoyable driving experience.

Optimized wide open throttle drive and sport maps
Shift strategy matches the output of our tuned ECU upgrades. In doing so, each gear will shift at the ideal point for the fastest acceleration.

Increased clutch pressure
Maximum targeted clutch pressure is raised to 17.5 bar / 255 PSI giving the transmission the ability to continue raising clutch pressure, as needed, to help prevent slip in higher torque situations.

Increased clutch torque limits
Clutch limits raised, allowing the transmission to function properly at higher torque levels. In doing so, the TCU does not artificially reduce torque.

Manual downshift lockout limit increased
In manual mode, the transmission will allow you to downshift so long as the next is below redline. This includes removal of the first gear lockout.

Lightning fast paddle response
Pulling the manual paddles results in a quicker shift with artificial delays and lag times removed and reduced.

Lightning fast shift times
Shift times are reduced to be as fast as physically and mechanically possible by the transmission. During cruise and light throttle, shift times are transitioned to a slower comfort mode.

Reduced pull-away delay
We’ve reduced the delay experienced when pulling away from a stop for a more natural driving experience.

Customizable auto up-shift behavior
When flashing the transmission, you can choose to have manual mode auto up-shift at redline or stay in gear and bounce off the limiter until you manually shift.

Customizable 3-step launch control
When flashing the transmission, you can choose your maximum launch RPM, which includes 3 launch RPMs that are selectable depending on throttle position.

Lightning fast launch control
We’ve greatly reduced the delay experienced after you release the brake pedal for a quicker reaction time when using launch control.

Launch control enabled with ESP on
Launch control can be used with ESP on. In some situation with the right setup this may improve your launch, although ESP will get in the way with too much tire slip.

Launch counter
There’s no software limit to the number of launches possible on the transmission.

Gear display active in drive and sport
Drive, sport and manual mode all display the current gear in the MFD, digital dash or virtual cockpit.


Notes:
- Only compatible with 2.0T Petrol Vehicles

Gwent VW Delivery Information

Do we ship abroad?
Yes, we do! Gwent VW can ship to most destinations worldwide. Please note that international postage costs can vary, especially for large or bulky items. We typically use trusted couriers such as DHL or UPS for overseas deliveries.

However, there are a few countries we do not currently ship to, including Israel, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Russia,Nigeria, Macedonia, Syria, Ukraine, and Lebanon.

For reliability and safety, we only use reputable courier services so we can track every shipment and ensure it arrives securely.

These charges are determined by local authorities and are not covered by Gwent VW.
