out of interest do you guys have someone starting and stopping the logging for you or do you do this yourself whislt driving? I have found you need a very long straight to carry out this FATS log. I tried it the other night and ran out of road, redline in 3rd is shifting pretty fast. Any tips appreciated.

[MarkB]

Leave it logging. Files don't get that big

I have found you need a very long straight to carry out this FATS log.

I found this out too, whilst accelerating hard in 3rd round a bend in the S4. Things happen so much quicker in the RS, you only need half the distance to do a 3rd gear run.

i normally have my laptop with the cursor over the marker button, when i decide i can do my 3rd gear run i just reach out my hand and click the buttonso i get a number in the first column to find it later

[Nige_RS4]

The spacebar acts as a marker trigger too!

[buzzard]

3rd gear fats is quick enough on local roads
i think i'm right in saying that dippy also did it in 4th gear earlier in this subject --yes 4th!!!
he was probably doing 125 ish

Nige, thats interesting, learn somethin every day

pretty bored so I dig up my best run about a year ago. It was 0 C and I ran 100oct with 1.7bar to 1.5bar. Straight K04's, CATs and #36 injectors at 5bar and homebrew stg1 software.

Since that I installed rs4 gearbox so I cant compare my times anymore.

When you say homebrew software... How?

[smurfbus]

well, running stg1 code with stg3 is considered homebrew. I just adjusted fueling channels to compensate maf/fpr/injectors changes.

[MarkB]

Cool. I see now.

Do you have info on what channels do what? I'm interested in changing things like fuel, boost and timing...

I would first buy wideband airfuel meter before changing any fueling parameters and even then you need to fully understand what you do. Its too easy to blow your engine making wrong adjustments.

Great I'll take a read...

I make your fats time under 3 seconds

[SimonS4MTM]

So i finaly got around to doing my first FATS runs.

I logged channel 002.

My first time was 5.02, and my second time was 5.14.

How does that sound?
