Hi guys,

Thank you all for voting in my previous thread on selecting the right car.

I have made up my mind on the Evo 10.

Initially, I would have wanted a manual.

However, my parents want me to get the semi-auto. They think its better to drive and will have better resale value.

If you were getting the evo x, which transmission would you get?

Please place your votes above.

Luv u guys.

Dr Dan

yeh i think their semi-auto box is like the vws and audis, DSG, you can hardly feel the shifts but its an awsome drive. Id say semi auto but then if you wanted to take it to the track maybe a manual?

edit: good choice on the car btw :P

its not an auto, its a dgs... ie clutchless manual. when in auto mode it uses shift logic, when in "manual" mode it should not change at all unless you tell it to engage.

google DSG for indepth information.

If it is a road car then the DSG gearbox is far more superior than a manual.

If you plan to track or rally the car then a manual will be a better choice.

Listen to your parents, they are correct and if there is any problem, it has a 5 year warranty.

How do you guys find the DSG transmission in the Audi/VWs?

I have never driven one before.

Also, if I were to sell the evo in future, which would sell better? DSG or 5spd manual?

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      Update Got turbo back from hypergear, installed everything etc. Bled coolant, wasn't smoking so I thought beauty she's sorted now. Went on a drive, car up to temp, let it idle for about 15 seconds, gave it some gas...nice puff of smoke again. Fml No doubt my turbo was pretty worn anyway but nonetheless frustrating that the problem persists.

      Lol, yeh sure. But I'm not changing the head on this engine. Turbo is the current mod im looking at; as the VCT-2.6L  engine im building is getting the turbo setup i posted so the old built RB25DE needs a snail

      New setup just needs a VCT enabled head and it will come on so much earlier. At least 500rpm of added response, if not more.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Something to note, on an aftermarket BOV, it's quite possible to end up with the worst of both worlds, where on light throttle, there isn't enough force to open the BOV so you get small reversion and driveability issues, and with the venting to atmosphere, it dumps a lot of fuel on shifts. Realistically, dumping to atmosphere under power isn't a major driveability issues, compared to the issues of stalling from reversion. If you're getting up the throttle, then putting the clutch in, say on a shift up, but then don't release the clutch, yes, the engine can and will stall, but, just drive around it, and that's easy, let the clutch out in the next gear and the car rolling will keep it all running / going.who wants a hard hit of throttle and then to just let the motor idle anyway?   Main issue for driveability is blipping throttle and it wanting to stall, like when parking or trying to move in slow traffic.
