It was time to go one step beyond :
Bye-bye stage 2+........ :innocent:
Hello Stage 3............... :driver:
Wednesday I'll be at the local Revo dealer to update the software so..........
any advice (such as T/F/B settings, change of driving style, cold starts, turbo pressures ext.) from the more experienced ones will be appreciated.
-
Settings will be unique to the individual car mate, I've done tonnes of research on best settings etc and the best way to set it up is either on the rollers or data logging with VAGCOM if you wish to do it at home with SPS.
If you haven't got a Uprated clutch and LSD I'd be saving for those next as stage 3 tune will eat your clutch very quickly like mine did. So I'd drive it pretty safe until they come, that's of course if you haven't already got them fitted.
I recently turned my boost down as the clutch slips and won't be able to get it replaced till end Of June.

Since I was on Stage 2+ for the last 4 years the upgraded clutch was a must.
The LSD is my next mod... :wink:
You can't drive this road at Crete with a 330+ hp FWD without it...... :wink:

As for the settings you are absolutely right.
I just want to have an idea.
-
That road looks the nuts :driver: take it you've been or going?
I'm currently on settings B7 T5 F9 as my default but then have a softer setting B4 T5 F9 and also a full blown neck snapping setting B9 T6 F9 :evilgrin: my default settings are a nice easy to drive around town and back roads mode with also easy cruising on the motorway for long distance.
-
I'm going for a short vacation at Crete and this road is 5 minutes away from the town that I'll be staying.
So........... :driver:
From my research B7/T5/F7 is the average settings for the K04.
-
Be a good day out while the missus is sunbathing round the pool mate :driver:
it'll be a ' be back in half hour ' and be back 3 hours later lol
-
:signLOL:
-
I love Crete. Think I'm getting a bit old to be staying in Malia now though :ashamed:
-
Malia is banging :drinking:
-
Nobody's too old for Malia.... :drinking:
-
Mike seems to think he is :P
-
B9/T6/F9 all the away........... :grin:
-
I used them settings for about a week then turned it down :ashamed:
-
B9/T6/F9 all the away........... :grin:
I think most richen the fuel by running F7 or F6.
-

You are right.
-
What setting are you using at the mo?
-
B9/T6/F9 at the moment but I'm sure I'll turn it down at the end.
-
Yeah I turned mine Dow. when I fitted the s3 cooler because didn't want the hoses popping off during the test drive lol will crank it up again when stage 2+ happens :evilgrin:
-
In the SPS User Guide these are the adjustments given by Revo...

Range 7-9 Unleaded Race Fuel over 100 Octane
Fuel Adjustment:
Range 0 Stock Air-Fuel Ratio (AFR)
Range 9 Performance Air-Fuel Ratio (AFR)
so..........
B9/T6/F9 all the away
I think most richen the fuel by running F7 or F6.
You are right.
..........maybe we are both wrong bacillus... :confused:
-
Nah, even revo themselves set up their stage 2+ cars using F6.
-
Here in Greece most (if not all) Stage 2+ cars are F9.
I'll contact the official dealer tomorrow (because last night when I went for a fast drive I saw 2 bar - 29 psi :scared: and I have to turn the boost down)
and we will have our answer for good.
-
According to Revo - Greece F9 is the richest.

According to Revo - Greece F9 is the richest.
Actually F9 is the leanest setting and any setting less than 9 i.e. F6 or F7 richens up the fuelling.

I misunderstood............... :ashamed:
bacillus is correct.................F9 is the leanest

I'm Revo Stage 3 and (after lots of work & tweaks by Alex at AKS) am set up running B9 T7 F9, and she feels strong.
As stated elsewhere, the settings seem to vary hugely between cars.
Hope you're enjoying Stage 3 :driver:

I also kept 969 and you are absolutely right.
She feels really strong.... :happy2:

this is old topic but still hot :)
did you log after putting those settings? car will feel.great, but it will not be great once you log lambda actual vs requested, lambda regulator, both boosts, maf g/s. you will have situation between 5000-6000rpm. i speaking on revo stage 3 map.
cannt speak generally for all cars, but few of them had same thing. nothing bad will happen, but lambda actual cannt meet requested at that rev range, and few other things.. and I preefer to have all parameters spot on
