I don't have a clue about the accuracy of the DSG wikipedia entry, they show the Audi DQ250 is has a max torque rating of 350Nm
The same article also claims, "Torque handling capability constraints perceive a limit on after-market engine tuning modifications (though many tuners and users have now greatly exceeded the official torque limits.[citation needed]); Later variants have been fitted to more powerful cars, such as the 300 bhp/350Nm VW R36 and the 272 bp/350 Nm Audi TTS."

Are we gonna have any problems with our DSG if tuned? We have two clutches in S Tronic tranny. I am not worried about motor but DSG is kinda fragile. Are you confident about putting around 400 ft lb, which I think this is what the tuned S3 is actually generating at crank.
Ryan, I disagree with your disagreement (sorta)… what burns-up in an auto ARE the clutches and bands… in a way you are right, and incorrect, IMO.

if you have convenience pkg - you get storage pkg.
if you have storage pkg - you got a pair of deez!
if you got a pair of deez, you have one set of two. on the D side of the car.
not a set on each side, which you would think!
cheers
