DQ500 DSG Sport clutch pack, Bar-Tek

Description

Reinforced Clutch Kit for DQ500 7-Speed DSG Transmissions

Planning a serious upgrade? DSG transmissions can handle surprisingly high torque with proper software control, but at some point, the mechanical limits of the clutch pack are reached. This is where Bar-Tek offers a cost-effective solution – a DSG clutch kit that supports torque up to 1000 Nm.

DSG Transmission and Torque Capacity – The Basics

Proper professional software control for DSG transmissions is the first thing to address when factory settings need improvement. This enhances shift speed, shift timing, heat management for the transmission and clutch, and with higher clutch pressures and more precise shifting, also increases torque capacity. With just these adjustments, this transmission type can handle significantly more torque already, but eventually, limits are reached. For this, there is one top choice in the industry if compromises are not an option – it’s developed by the experts at TVS Engineering in the Netherlands, and in Finland, these solutions are available through our ECU Helsinki Customs location in Vantaa.

When all possible adjustments have been made on the software side and the absolute durability of the hardware becomes the limit – it’s time to upgrade the clutch.

For Heavy-Duty Torque, up to +1000 Nm

The high-performance DSG clutch from Bar-Tek provides fast, slip-free shifts even with high torque. However, it’s not just designed for the track; this kit is fully road-ready. The kit is engineered to withstand 800 Nm of torque, though transmission software settings also play a big role in determining torque capacity.

The clutch kit is a complete set, ready for installation, and includes an optimized clutch basket with calibrated components. Simply replace the original part with this set and carry out the necessary DSG software optimization. To extend the life of your new clutch, we recommend pairing it with an efficient DSG oil cooler.

TVS Engineering’s transmission software, or similar, also helps to keep your new clutch cool and safely manage overall gearbox temperatures.
