Change your air filters after removibg charcoal and set it to sport plus. That might help

It may be your traction control kicking in, i had similar problems till i changed the tires

Make sure you're in S3, Sport+. Also, if you bought your car used, does it have an aftermarket rear section exhaust? If so, check the vacuum lines and make sure they're plugged.

Also, I'd hate to insult your intelligence, but make sure you are in a lower gear. Or try driving in D3 mode with the DCT and see how it goes. Being that you are new to the DCT it sounds like, you may need to get used to it. The programming in D3 mode is actually very good and will get you going quite nicely.

I've installed the turner Muffler Delete so I'll double check the vacuum lines

If you are trying to corner and accelerate, look and see if the yellow light is flickering. If so that 's the issue. You can turn that off in the settings and cut that nanny in half (but then very easy to oversteer)

Turns out the vacuum lines weren't plugged. After I plugged them with rtv and a hose plug the car feels much much better now
