Default Level 10,Milltek Dp's, KO4's,AWE smic, Samco hoses, APR stage 2

chip, APR exhaust but no FUEL SYSTEM. I can't find anyone who has a fuel system for the tip. I asked Mike at AWE and others if I bought the fuel kit for the 6 speed and installed it if it would work . They all said no. But why? Any info would help. Also my level 10 trans shifts VERY hard inbetween first and second up or down. Anyone else have that problem. Another bit of information sharing- my level 10 trans doesn't shift very crisp. When I shift he gears, 2 through 5, it shifts very smoothly like the stock one and I can easily loose boost. I would like it to shift hard like it does inbetween 1st and 2nd. If Skydive is out there, did you have a tip chip put in or do you have these issues too? I appreciate any help or feedback.

Default you want or do not want the hard shifting?

edit: From what I remember, the current L10 ers say the rough shifting diminishes as the trans breaks in.

Default I would like quicker more instant shifting, when I

shift now it shifts slowly and i loose valuable power. I want to make it more like a manual. This new level 10 trans should be able to handle it but I can't find anyone out there that has done what i've done to a tip. Any info you can share?

Default TipChip will increase line pressure thus speeding up shifts

I suggest you give it a shot.

FYI, I don't think you are losing as much power as you think. L10 claims their upgrades reduce drivetrain loses significantly.

I just hope mine gets installed A-OK the second time around.

Default You did it shortly after I did right? What happened? I almost

had a problem. The install shop filled the trans but did not know that you have to warm the trans up to a certain temp in order for the fluid to start flowing to the cooler. Luckily I took it to Audi to double check it and they added two more quarts. Sam said it wouldn't have hurted it but why take chances.

Default I had torque converter install problems. I am not the only one.

Low ATF fluid would be have been a welcome problem in exchange for what I and a couple others are going through.
