Dumping power between shifts? (DQ381)

My 7.5r with forged pistons/rods, G25 660 Pmax, and MPI flex fuel does a weird thing sometimes where itll completely dump the power when shifting around 6k RPM-redline. I dont suspect its bad clutchpacks as it only has 83k miles and it doesn't feel/smell like its slipping when this happens. A few things I was suggested by friends were hot charge air temp, bad TCU tune, torque limiter and fuel pressure/injection timing. Has anyone experienced this before? Thanks.

Which one should I get?

OE MAP doesnt like the 37psi coming from my Pmax on my 7.5r. Anyone have experience with these? Is the IE one worth the almost $100 extra? Thanks!

Can I run this on my G25 660 Pmax?

I found a brand new one for an absolute steal on marketplace. Let me know. Currently just have the Garrett DV that came with the turbo on my 7.5r.

BOSCH vs OEM coilpack?

7sp DSG shifting slow/slipping??

My 7.5r will randomly start shifting very slowly instead of instantly with the DSG "fart". Almost feels like when youre clutch is slipping in a manual car. Recently got my haldex/DSG service done. I was able to fix it a couple of times with the gas pedal in ACC trick but now it doesn't seem to be working. Is my mech unit done for?? Maybe my clutchpacks? Only at 82k miles. Thanks!

Is it normal for my 7.5r to be burning a bit of oil? Its got a G25 660 Pmax s2, and built bottom end with flex fuel. I usually run between e25-e60. Turbo was replaced very recently because the shop suggested that was the cause. Ive also read it could just be because of the E content, unless theres some catastrophic failure going on with the piston rings.

Im looking to get an exhaust for my 7.5r. Im currently running the stock exhaust with my APR high flow downpipe, G25 660 pmax turbo and built motor. I used to have the Beluga track exhaust on my MK6, but I cant really find anything similar for the 7.5r. Any suggestions? Im a big fan of the deep rumbly tone, loud or not, preferably 3". Stock exhaust is just getting boring. Thanks!
