You sound exactly like I was when I was about to order mine mate.. Didn't want to order the wrong box and when getting it have a another one with the oppisite box come whistling past you..

When I spoke to Revo, they said that the map on the DSG ED30 has the torque pulled back a little (which had me a bit annoyed

) but when on the rollers, mine kicked out 360lb/ft on 2 seperate occasions, so if that's holdng back, i'd love to see what it would be like if they didn't...

The reliability issues/rumours seem to of been squashed with a number of seriously high powered cars running safely with no issues on DSG.
Mine has just Revo map and full TBE and Hurdy (the mod nutter) quite a few bits more (Fuel pump, FMIC, Intake, amoungst others

) and both seem to be running mint at min..
Like you say though, even if the DSG did have a very slight disadvantage in transmission losses, it's more than made up through the shifts..

What car you got at min mate?

Running a Bora TDI 150 at the moment, slightly modded to 247 BHP and 360 LBFT, so quite a bit off a mapped Edition 30's but quick enough for a Tractor. Looking for a change in job/location so if that comes to fruition, I would jump at getting back into a Petrol car early next year. I would buy used, always do and the only cars I really fancy are a 135i / 335i or Golf Edition 30 - The other half would fancy a TTS in Ibis white, but dont think they will depreciate enough to be in my price range.
