04 SE tiptronic shifting
When I like to drive spirited, It seems when I change into tiptronic and upshift to get the rev's higher, it will shift automatically and seems to get up to its sweet spot quicker.
For spirited driving purposes only. Would it be better to go into tiptronic and upshift and let it automatically shift? Or just leave it in D. |

 You do get a better get up and go when you use the tiptronic. Each setting will "lock" the ratio within a narrow range so for that setting you do experience a higher RPM and more "pull". The computer however still has full control and will override the setting if engine rpm becomes excessive.
