K04.............at last.
« on: May 18, 2014, 09:20:51 am »
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.
