Is your graph any different to that you got at Paramount?

No not really, but quite clearly shows there still is a problem.. Sonny was there with his car, and that was nearly 80bhp more!! I guess I'll be keeping my appointment with Audi. CHarlie from SRR, suspected it was a gummed up inlet manifold, clogging the valve, and it feels just like the throttle isn't fully open.

I'll stick the plot up soon.

Andy, please can you pm your plot, so that I can show the dealer the differences

You did better than Mike159 when he ran his old one at the AudiSRS day!

Think his was 302bhp.

oli, sorry to hear that..the thing about the janked up inlet does not make sence when you look at rob and jims results from the rr day?[only difference between the two rob had a de-coke ]but only a few horses between them..so we may be barking up the wrong tree, as this being the cause?? god knows........maybe we should try to sort out this head to head rs4 day on a airfield and compare the cars properly?

Cheers SH. First of all Audi is having mine back to investigate - It certainly doesn't have the power increase/surge @ 5000+rpm, and when I finally get my scanner to work you can see my power/torque is low all the way through, when compared to Sonnys car

Sorry to hear Oli,
Yours is about the same age/mileage as mine?
same tyres, and mine only did 343hp, what were you pressures by the way?

Factory standard pressure, almost irrelevant when my graph is so low - scanning as we speak

As promised - sorry they are faint - Not sure how to darken them up??

Corrected flywheel graph

Wheel power - I think?

Image

I believe this shows BHP as well as fuelling? Is this correct?

Image

This is my plot against Sonnys, you can see my car is lacking right from the start

Comments Audi??

No. They are brand new, put in with the major service, which has been carried out since the last dyno, 500 miles/1 month ago. The 10BHP increase is probably from the service and plugs only!

Per my pm .. this can be sorted .... you just need to be mega polite and go for a ride with the master tech ... they should be able to sort it out .. it just a logical process ...
