Weird, is probably the best way of describing it. In honesty, you won't get in it and go "omg this is fast" but they're very deceptive with how they deliver power. They accelerate at the same pace at 2000rpm as they do at 6500rpm. So feel very flat, but it's because they're so linear.
To update, it's sounding like a lambda sensor has failed and is playing around with adaptions, which explains why it's such a different car from what I drove yesterday. I've made arrangements to get the car back and sort the issues.
As for the light on the dash, this vehicle has had the clock...
The few experiences I've had with them, I've not had a good one. I will add these are all customer supplied gearboxes. Every one has leaked in some way, with Robs being the worst (hadn't even put a seal in th end cap judging by the amount of oil it was loosing. It went in with a whining 5th...
Lifters are here, head is back with my machining guy to have the clearances set. Should be back this week. Bottom end is together, but waiting on the sump (4 week wait from forge!) that's about it. Too busy with work to even look at mine currently.
These cars are strange in the sense that they look at the closed loop corrections then apply the fuel trims globally. Which gives the difference in duty cycles.
Yes the Matched OEM inlet with KTR IK certainly flows well at the midrange, only really over 6500rpm where the rs2 comes into its own...
Sadly that's the risk taken. The rs2 has made more power, but it'll be how it holds the torque. In driving them back to back you could certainly feel where one was better than the other.
It's not so much about peak numbers, it's the delivery. The rs2'always lost torque (peak) but gained it...
