Are things ok at home Steve? What you said doesn't make sense but it has the undertone of wanting to share your misery and I don't understand what I did to you my dude.

I explain at the end of the video I need to develop a tune for the platform, personally would love an sf90 over the 296 style wise

I want to engage with this, but if I repeat what I read, I'm sure this fledgling page will be shadow banned lol. Taking everything in me to not talk at length about the education and healthcare industries and go down this rabbit hole with you

Get out of the pool, Axel

Yh

The throttle limit depends on the software version, it exists on R8's as well and some do not have the throttle limit, but still gain a sizeable amount of power for an NA car. The OEM's do this for various reasons, an AWD car is less likely to spin out with an unskilled driver making it safer for mass consumption. It is also lighter without the AWD system, so it doesn't need as much power to go as fast, and the OEM's, especially VAG will always sandbag and make a more powerful version of the car each facelift. If you watch our SF90 video, I explain that the Aventador that was made for over a decade has had many revisions with more and more power with the only major difference being the RPM limit. It's just a way for them to achieve economies of scale, make the same engine but have multiple power levels to give a different driving experience. You can get an R8 that can beat a Huracan, a Porsche Cayenne GT that can beat a Urus, etc. With the same hardware and software they have the same ceiling of potential power output regardless which sticker is on the hood. There is a great video that expounds on the philosophy of why manufacturers utilize this trick to achieve maximum sales with minimal diversity of engines/chassis, none have done it better than the VW/Audi Group. It's very interesting, look up the Ferdinand Piëch video by Hagerty

That's the c63 black series wing

Jack of all trades is master of none, I'm the same way, I prefer to stick to what I'm good at. I'd be lost tuning standalones but Winols is home to me. Very cool E type restomod btw! Was hoping for a sound clip

@@hdtuning yes exactly you gotta know your limits and focus on what you’re good at!

Usually we look at whp compared to advertised crank to find out what the drivetrain loss is. Then use that percentage to calculate a new crank HP number. The problem is factory turbo cars choose turbos that are tiny to limit lag, so they lose steam high rpm. The majority of gains are made low and midrange so measuring acceleration as a function of average HP and average torque is a better litmus test of a tune's performance rather than Dyno numbers. This is just one metric and it's the most widely accepted and understood method. If we were using the same marketing numbers the industry players use, we'd claim it's a 1200hp car. I'd rather not play that game and just show the power gain at the wheel was 120hp 145tq.
