Transmission Control Unit (TCU) Calibration Software

TVS Engineering offers a comprehensive range of DSG software solutions designed to enhance the drivability, durability, and performance of vehicle transmissions, catering both to tuned and stock vehicles. Their pioneering software upgrades, developed since the company's inception, not only offer powerful 'off-the-shelf' options but also customisable solutions for specific needs, addressing common issues like excessive clutch wear, shifting problems, and potential gearbox breakdown due to improper data reception by the transmission control unit (TCU).

By fully reprogramming the DSG software, TVS adjusts and optimizes a multitude of parameters, including shifting strategies, torque capacity, and thermal management, which significantly improve responsiveness and extend the transmission's lifespan. Special features like customizable RPM setpoints, advanced clutch management, and tailored launch controls enhance vehicle control and performance, ensuring a harmonious balance between power and durability, thus making every drive both exhilarating and reliable.

Engine Control Unit (ECU) Calibration Software

TVS Engineering is renowned for its expertise in chiptuning, optimising the software of the Engine Control Unit (ECU) and Transmission Control Unit (TCU) to enhance vehicle performance, drivability, and fuel efficiency. By developing these custom software enhancements in-house, they ensure seamless integration between the engine and gearbox, which improves responsiveness and smooths overall operation.

Their tuning strategy not only focuses on maximising vehicle performance but also includes sophisticated management systems to maintain optimal engine temperatures, enhancing durability without compromising performance. Furthermore, TVS tunes are tailored to improve fuel efficiency, adapting each vehicle's settings to the specific needs and conditions of the driver. With a wide range of chiptuning solutions suitable for everything from daily commuting to performance-focused driving, TVS's offerings are ideal for drivers looking to elevate their vehicle's capabilities while maintaining high standards of reliability and enjoyment.

Gearbox Hardware

TVS Engineering is at the forefront of DSG hardware innovation, specialising in the development of DSG Racing Clutches for wet clutch DSG transmissions. These high-performance clutches are engineered to enhance drivability and maintain a factory-like feel while significantly increasing both torque and thermal capacities. Designed to handle high-demand driving conditions, TVS clutches ensure that performance enhancements do not compromise reliability or driving comfort.

By focusing on critical aspects such as the balance of friction surface area, materials, plate designs, and clutch pack shimming, TVS creates clutches that deliver optimal performance while avoiding common issues like reliability concerns and drivability degradation. This attention to detail ensures that each clutch performs seamlessly within the existing transmission system, making TVS clutches a top choice for enthusiasts looking to elevate their vehicle's capabilities for both everyday driving and competitive racing scenarios.

Gearbox Conversions

TVS Engineering specialises in DSG gearbox conversions, offering robust kits which allow select gearboxes to be converted to either a DQ250 or DQ500. These kits are designed to enhance both the performance and reliability of vehicles by upgrading the existing gearbox system with new, high-performance components including a new gearbox, clutch, mechatronic unit, and specially tailored TVS conversion software.

The kits are engineered to overcome the mechanical limitations of standard DSG gearboxes in high torque scenarios, making them suitable for high-performance and racing applications. The DQ500 conversion kits are especially valuable for DQ250 and DQ381 vehicles that demand greater power outputs and are subject to intense operating conditions. Meanwhile, the DQ250 conversions are a beneficial upgrade for DQ200 vehicles that may benefit from a stronger gearbox to handle increased power demands more reliably whilst overcoming the known shortcomings of the DQ200.
