Ron- I don't go into drivetrain tab. Just go to engine 01 from main VAG screen then Adv. Measuring Values then select what you want to log then click turbo and click group similar requests.

I suggest taking some logs around town to make sure it's working right. Not all the boxes in the advanced measuring values are valid on all cars. Log the minimum things you really want, as this will affect your sample rate.

I would suggest a few:
G23- Vehicle Speed (Km/Hr)
G35- RPM
G332- Engine Load
C436- Absolute Manifold Pressure
G508- Accelerator Position
G???- Timing (I don't remember which block)

Bruce, OK I will try that... I did click turbo but forgot to mention that... Maybe it is because I went into the drivetrain tab? Who knows... Will test your steps in the AM.... I'll let you know... Thanks Ron

So going to these correlation equations:
http://www.stealth316.com/2-calc-hp-et-mph.htm

With your 3950 lb car and 115.93 trap speed:

The equations are spitting out 480, 506 and 507 horsepower equivalent.

You're certainly building a beast there..

Dissappointed with the 60ft and ET but the 1/8 mile speed and trap speed had me encouraged.... Car was very warm on this run... IE I just got there and made the pass 5-10 minutes later.....

I have never tracked an AWD vehicle but I think your 60 ft times are very respectable given street tires. My primary focus has always been MPH when moding then working on the launch. Great job on both!

In that train of thought, what are the times you have recorded with the MTM on your car, or have you taken it to an official racing strip for true times and speeds?

Bruce, I got it now.... Just did some runs... Yeah, I am going to get in trouble with this thing! LOL WOT runs at 9am on Sunday.... Here are some interesting numbers I found, after 2 WOT runs.... Just testing....

G508 Accelerator position never got over 99.91 but I am positive I was 100%... maybe I can't acheive 100%?

G332 engine load was 99.61 on the same line.... Again, not 100%....

G35 I shortshifted each gear and shifted at 6614RPM... I thought it was closer to 7K but oh well.... next time I will let the tranny do it's thing...

Now the interesting one... I also choose G652 Engine tourque which on the same line hit.... 588.65625nm or 434.17tq.... WOW! That means since were rated at 325tq I am up 109tq with tune, exhaust and intake... Nice pickup eh! LOL

Also, ambient temp was 12 celcius or 53.6F... intake was only 11 or 51.8F.... that tells me our intercooler is pretty efficient as I made sure the car was up to normal operating temp and then some before going WOT....

Didn't find the boost one but will have to look closer as there are a lot to choose from... Will do some research online....

PM me any other tips if you don't mind... I really appreciate the help. later Ron
