Traction Issues Revo Stage 1

[Poppa Dom]

Less tyre pressue, better traction???

Agreed!
not necessarily, I have found the PS2's prefer to have higher pressures (counterintuitive but seems to work) 

[Rob GTI]

Got my pressures at 37psi al round. (as per VW recomedations). What you guys running?

[Poverty]

woah, that seems a bit high, do vw really recomend that? Im running 30psi at the front, 29 at rear.

[CarrG]

Mine are at 33psi.

Try tracking first and go from there.

....Label on the fuel cap : -



2.4 bar = 35 psi (as near as damn it).

^^^^ isnt it more for 18" alloys though, Robins were factory fit 17's and be different pressures?

Im running Vreddesteins, and they reccomend set pressure of 40psi for their assymetric tyres

Yeah i was told that about the vreds. but surely that pressure depends on the weight of the car, not just a gineric  pressure for all. I dropped the pressures on mine though to about 34psi

i dont think there is any thing wrong with the car at all , my CCstage 1 ed 30 would spin the wheels in 5 th gear in the wet / greasy roads its just the torque and front wheel drive thats 1 of the reasons i went for the S3 it was that or vwr lsd , S3 intercooler , S3 brakes etc......

....Yes, my GTI was originally on Monza 17's but I think that the label inside the filler cap is the same on Monza 18 cars ex factory.

I'm running GY Assymetrics on OZ 18's at 37psi and all is very good.

Mine says 2.6bar all round for normal use.

^^ mine is the same as Hedges, so there is a difference robin between 17's and 18's

Actually it could be between GTI and Ed30. 

[Phil Mcavity]

I very much doubt it, need someone who has 18 monza's factory fit to confirm this case

  Are you forgetting the fact we have to carry that bigger turbo around.

I was actually gonna say Big ego's but id get shot for that
