Mk6 GTI DSGs don't have Launch Control activated do they?

I find that without LC, DSG has a lag on initial take off..whereas a manual held on the biting point of the clutch, has no delay.
Then the manual has a delay whilst changing gear...whereas the DSG does not.
Overall, I think you'd be hard pushed to actually detect one being faster than the other, if such a gap actually exists in the real world.

The mk6 DSG GTI models do come with Launch Control but I only ever use it at the strip (and very rarely at the lights when I'm feeling evil).

To be honest it really comes down to the driver.
