I know taka has a 35i, but he found that the best launches was with DSC off and DTC on. May be give that a try? I also found that even though the light is not flashing, the engine do bogged down a when both are on.

How were you shifting your Auto? Manually or auto switch? Did you remember it launches in 2nd and you'll have to physically move it to M1?
