Thanks
No, my car is a 2010 and doesn't have LC w/o a DSG tune... IMO Audi LC doesn't help it actually hurts short times and the GIAC one hasn't proven to be too good either, seeing as I can still cut better 60's than any other B8 S4 w/o it...

Yeah, the short shift will hurt your times/performance... Yes, APR is working on a DSG tune not sure when it will be released... I want the increased 7200 RPM redline more than anything to be honest...

I've used the LC once...literally neck snapping...at least to me! Regardless, concur on the need for more RPM. I talked to a gent by the name of Victor about a week ago at APR. Gave zero opinion on any date for the RPM modification.
