Well.... It's been some time since I installed the Astro.

Been using the box for 3 months. Mainly street cruising, 2000-3500 rpms.
One quick test at a autoX, no problems.
Some 6000 rmp burn- outs, nor problems.

But this weekend I went to the track.

What I experienced was not good. By going to 7800 in 3. and into 4. is nice and then 5. a little more troublesome, then DOWNSHIFTING to 3. at the end of a straight was PITA...

The A5 is not made for downshifting (intended drag use )?

Even the stock T5 shifted into 3 better than the A5 (but I often missed it and got 5. instead).

So far not satisfied, but in the long run- who knows?
