Prehaps we should think about a web cam and live link  :popcornsoda:


....Are you sure about that? Do you really want everyone to see me giving my one-finger salutation?

Thanks to JKM and his Redness for today. Enjoyed meeting faces both old and new.

Much respect to the boys that travelled the distances.  :notworthy:

Whsts your spec

K03 DSG Revo Stg-1, b8t5f9


 :surprised:
Thought you had the super dooper new Revo stage 2+ :stupid:

Nope - just stg1, set as above.


Jim (?) suggested wastegate issues, and that I should check for a crack in the turbo housing near the wastegate. He also said he'd bet that if I logged boost target versus actual there would be discrepancy. I've checked and there isn't, and the N75 isn't ever hitting 100% except when spooling at low revs, so I don't think there is a wastegate problem.

e.g:

revs      requested      actual
5400      1950      1920
5600      1890      1870
5840      1810      1830
6040      1730      1790
6240      1710      1740
6400      1720      1710
6560      1700      1700
6680      1050      1680

The car drives fine, so I'm inclined to ignore the dyno figures. Hell they theoretically make my insurance cheaper!  :grin:

As a slight aside, I logged the g/s whilst on the dyno, and the car was consuming about 20g/s less than it does on the road.

Can you get a full log of actual vs requested?

Yeah I will do at some point, on turbo logging rather than normal rate... though I've never tried that - does it make much difference??

Here's my car's attempt to draw table mountain with a power curve:

Tbh ignoring peak figures that's a strong graph. Strong midrange torque and a nice plateau of power.  An intake would give you a nice result

Hey! Thanks for all the Thankyous, guys!  :drinking:

No sweat, and I enjoyed doing it and seeing folks enjoying themselves. It was good to see some I hadn't seen for a while too. There were some very tasty cars there today.

I'll post some pics tomorrow.

.....APR Golf being an R and '4WD' - No, JKM don't do '4WD's on their dyno.

Not cold at all with thermal longjohns, high neck long sleeved vest (from my cycle racing days) plus extra layers and hat.
