After that, I will go to the only 4wd dyno we have here local which belongs to a japanie's tuner. He doesn't know a crap on German cars and doesn't seems to like them pretty much ether. Hopefully I'll show those guys good numbers compared to the cars they usually do...
Yup, there are a ton of options for the FX850. Material, sprung or unspring, even the pressure of the pressure plate. You can even do 1 sprung and 1 unsprung disc if you want.

If they aren't familiar with S4.. make sure they point fans to your ICs. I went to a local dyno around here one time that didn't know S4s and IATs were sky high.. figured out the fans weren't even pointed to the ICs.

No worrys. I'll probably pop off the bumper's inserts on each side to help a little bit more. I'll take care of that for sure. If he only have one fan, i'll probably wait and go somewhere else later or next year.
Right on budy. The springs help to absorbs engine harminics but it also absorbs small amount of missalignment or runout.
I had to take a lots of precautions to prevent of what happened to yours. Hope your new clutch is doing a good job now...
So I now run EPL's 2nd revision file. Now boosting 30psi when the boost first kicks in at around 3800 rpm then immediately go down to 27 psi until 7800.
The only thing I can tell so far is........WTF is that. Car pushes like it never did.
I got to log her again and send this info to the guys at EPL and see if it needs corrections and what it is.
I have some hard time to connect with ECUx. I have to change com port, lower baud rate and all that stuff. You guy's got a clue?
Thanks very much Adam BTW for your help to install it and other things.

if you have vagcom installed on your computer sometimes you have to open it and switch off "boot in intelligent mode" test and save.. mine switches back for some reason sometimes and it messes with ECUx

Thanks. I don't have vagcom on this laptop but i do have an other engine software on this one. Insite.
I'm starting to think that i should install ECUx in an other one.
Up date... Better late then never ;-)
I just get back from EPL.
First they took care to recode my cluster so that I don't get those abs esp lights anyore.
Now there's three things you have to think of....
1- I don't run meth. Why? because I don't want to rely on this. Specially when i do long travel. I dont want get into trouble if I run out of meth while i'm way out from home.
2- We only have crappy 91ish gaz Where I live. So the WHP is based on crappy 91 no meth.
3-It was raining like hell down here. 100% humidity. So that takes off a little bit of torque right there too.
Anyway.....I made 535whp and around 557 Wtorque on 91 pump. Dyno graph will show up as soon as I get the Dyno chart.
On 104 race file, We stopped at 620whp and around 629 torque. Why did we stopped at 620's? Because I decided so. The car did 0 knock at this whp level and according to Tony, we can easilly reach the 650whp bar with that gaz. I decided to stop there just to keep the engine in a kind of ''safe mod''... We never know.
620 whp is something I've always respect... And 535 whp on the streets today, is more than anough..
I'd like to thank a couple of guys and never mind the order as I go with the one that comes in top of my mind.
-Thanks to ''Rombotis tuning'' for having built the strong and reliable engine and also for your superb service when I blew a turbo on the dyno Two years ago.
-Thanks to ''Guruman'' for the great deal on the engine and all other supports.
-Thanks to ''EPL'' For the great success and good reliable tuning you did.
-Thanks to ''Dynodoc'' Even though it didn't work out with you because your computer box crash down, I know you're a good tuner too.
-Thanks to Adam ''evilevo''
-Thanks to Sebast '' Sherif''
-Thanks to all the ''AZ'' fellow. Even though I've been in the diesel engine world for a long time, I've learned a lot in this board towards the gaz side from some of you guys...
I will always be part of the Audi scene, But it's time for me to do some diesel power now. I'm probly going to buy a truck soon.
Again, Dyno chart will come as soon as I get them.

Reason: Did some corrections regarding the torque
It's great to see 535whp on 91 without meth and low/no knock. 91 is so limited without meth. That is definitely more then enough for the street. Nice to see how much it can rip with some race gas. Be nice to see what it can do with some real 110!

Thanks Max. I don't know how was the knock voltage on 91file. I was talking about the 104Wallon file. And that was without the carbone Y pipe you sold me. I feel a little bit chicken to push her farther. I want her to last long. You know what I mean. I throw too much money on her.
Thanks Dominique. Well it was actually on 104 octane no meth. We did 535 whp on 91 no meth which is
Good. Tony tuned two ECUs one with 621 whp and other with 535 whp. 535 whp is for the street and 621
whp is for race. It would be very cool to do race between your old 3L VS your new one that is about to show up
Thanks. :-)
Yeah that was a big fight. Some of my friends said I was crazy to keep fixing and throwing money at her.
But now it pays off. I remember somone saying ''keep focusing''
I'm glad to see her back on the street Simon, I hope I'll be able to drive by your side this summer before cracking some cold ones ;)
BTW, where have you been with the car to get it tuned by EPL?
I've gone directly in CT. It was worth the trip for two reasons. 1 it's nice in Vermont and Massachussets and 2 DO it once for good.
One trip and i'm tune.
