The dealer just called me and told me the have a map upgrade for me - for free! Even more horses and VMAX unlock
Great news! I have a automatic as well and it definitely feels "choked" as you said. For me both dealers (Mcchip-dkr and BR-performance) are within a two hours of driving, but with a €600,- (+/- $680,-) price difference in favor of BR-performance with the same warranty agrement and service level.
