    I Love My TIP

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    All I can say is wow... I tried playing around with the paddle shifters yesterday and what a surprise... I didn't expect the TIP to be this responsive....I do have the audi select option not sure if this is a big difference to a non select car but its awsome. Im coming from an 08 BMW M5 with SMG and its the same if not better in regards to response to gear shifting... downshifting is smooth and upshifting is fast!... this car doesn't stop putting a smile on my face... No regrets going for the TIP... just got the windows tinted 20% all around. Will post pics later...

    Just think how big the smile on your face would be if you had gotten the stick instead

    Re: I Love My TIP

    I think the responsiveness comes from ADS and the new version of TIP for B8's. I know at times I get a little frustrated with the TIP in my B7. I have been trying to hold off for a manual B8 A4 Avant but that does not look like it is coming anytime soon so I will have to settle for another TIP.

    Peace

    I did mine in Bedford, Solar Solutions. Great work at a good price. Let me know I can set it up for you.
