But on a car with modded VTG's as another member said, for the tiptronic to fail its a matter of time.
I thought you had modded VTGs...So your tip might fail...

cost is 3,950 + VAT.

Then the gearbox can handle upto 1300nm/tq

The technitian is a Greek guy called Panos, i can give you his contact information if you want to.
Yes they add discs change the valve and some other staff that he didn't want to publish.
For sure they know best at MKB, since they do Merc cars and they know which parts are best to use.

I have created a thread if you want to know more i'll post everything i went and will go threw

MKB does not guarantee you that you can be doing brake launches all the time. But for sure it will handle better than the stock. Some people have upgraded their transmitions and then brake them, because thei thought they became bulletfroof.

Its the same when you add a racing clutch on a MT modded car, if you do hard launches all the time you might brake the flywheel, an axle etc.

In my case i didn't upgrade to do brake launches, but because my tip was spinning between 3rd to 4th gear changes
