Re: Big turbos anyone?
If they were any good, I would have poss taken a punt for a laugh at that price, but I already break traction on command at anything below 70 currently (really, really wish I was lying, can't put the power down properly...) when I mildly mash the pedal and the wandering torque steer that nobody can dial out at all tells me no way.

Re: Big turbos anyone?
MPS4s is the way forward. Awesome grip. I had MPSS on my M5 (700bhp) then changed to MPS4s and could not believe the difference.Mr Footlong wrote: ↑Wed Jan 16, 2019 8:48 pmIf they were any good, I would have poss taken a punt for a laugh at that price, but I already break traction on command at anything below 70 currently (really, really wish I was lying, can't put the power down properly...) when I mildly mash the pedal and the wandering torque steer that nobody can dial out at all tells me no way.

Re: Big turbos anyone?
They won't make any difference to the wandering steering and back squatting down/front lightening up when on any sort of power. Three different good alignments, MRC's experience with her and two different sets of tyres tell me that. Once I am back on summer tyres, they will be the 4s and we can at least see regarding breaking traction then.

Re: Big turbos anyone?
I agree, in your post you said traction not torque steer, MPS4s will 100% improve traction.Mr Footlong wrote: ↑Wed Jan 16, 2019 9:46 pmThey won't make any difference to the wandering steering and back squatting down/front lightening up when on any sort of power.

I have had 2 with Air and my current one is DRC. Although DRC corners flatter there is little or no difference with torque steer. Pretty <beep> for cars costing over 80K. My RS6 was stage 1 and a bit of a handful. S7 was also stage 1 but behaved much better (RS6 was 2015, S7 was 2017). My current RS7 is stock and although it does not have that weird tail end squirm of the RS6 it deffo has torque steer. I hoped going DRC would eliminate much of the issues unfortunately it has made little difference.
DRC = flatter cornering. AIR = lovely comfort / drive. pity we could not get the best of both worlds

Re: Big turbos anyone?
The squirming/torque steer is awful imo and not acceptable on a car like this. My C5 is absolutely planted when you mash the pedal.
My bum tells me it is down to down to the back dropping too much on hard acceleration, but if the DRC ones bloody do it too, then I don't think I can be bothered to throw out the air and try aftermarket. So disappointed, wish the bloody wife never crashed the Cayenne, wiped the floor with both 6's in the handling department .
Anyhoo, back to turbos.

Re: Big turbos anyone?
Nick, only 888nm here but mine doesn't have any noticeable squirming or torque steer. I have the little wobble when accelerating / overtaking and crossing over the middle of the road / camber change but totally in control on the straight.
Re: Big turbos anyone?
Mine is a 2017 on air and I also experienced this quite bad, Center of Gravity have improved it greatly now. I still get a little wiggle when crossing the camber in the middle of the road but not at all on a straight. Front still gets light as back squats, but traction is absolute and I am on MPSS (will be swapping to 4S as needed and expect it to get better).Mr Footlong wrote: ↑Wed Jan 16, 2019 9:46 pmThey won't make any difference to the wandering steering and back squatting down/front lightening up when on any sort of power.

Re: Big turbos anyone?
Same here. I had a C6 mapped to around 700bhp. 100% planted, awesome car. in terms of dealing with the power these are definitely a step back. I wonder if a limited slip diff in the front would help things?? Not sure anyone even produces one?Mr Footlong wrote: ↑Thu Jan 17, 2019 8:22 amThe squirming/torque steer is awful imo and not acceptable on a car like this.

Re: Big turbos anyone?
Done a good bit of driving over the last week or so. My RS7 does not squirm around at the back like my RS6 but deffo has torque steer. What I have found is, if I put the rear diff in comfort it more or less eliminates the torque steer. Anyone else found this?? I am still stock, going stage 1 might out me back to square one though?Mr Footlong wrote: ↑Thu Jan 17, 2019 8:22 amThe squirming/torque steer is awful imo and not acceptable on a car like this.
