    New Prosport Rolling Road Day 25th October

    From my experience the TFSi doesn't suffer so much from heatsoak as quickly as the 1.8T's do. I would probably like to see some larger fans being used at ProSport too though. Yet my own car produced very repeatable figures at Prosport to other RR's it had been on including Awesome GTI where...

    Denser colder air won't necessarily mean the map can deliver more power, but sustain that power for longer across the rev-band. But it would have to be a fairly substantial temperature difference between the morning and afternoon to make much of a difference to the results. Most track days...

    The other thing to bear in mind is, Superchips say non come under 300hp on their rollers, but your only 2hp down on Prosport's. As I said earlier, RR's +- 5hp either way should be expected really. Superchips own graph on their product pages indicates they hit peak power increase of 42 hp at...

    Here is some comparison RR graphs from my car. This is an early graph from Awesome, when it was standard and brand new in May 2007 with just over 1000miles on the clock. Then again in April 2008, only additions being a Forge DV and Carbonio. It lost some power. Probably due to the...

    7200rpm seems a bit high for these engines. They do rev well, better than 1.8T's do, but to be honest i would expect to see peak power on most TFSi's before 6500rpm Rolling Roads do differ on how they operate, they all have a slightly different take on working out the figures. Which is why...

    Glad your happier IGGU, your car is making good power and torque across the mid-range. Which as i think were all accepting, is where you need it most and benefit the most. The torque is producing figures very similar to my own stage 2 map and with the uprated pump. I think mine is able to...

    To set your minds at ease, mine is a 2007 Cupra, built around February/March time. Awesome inspected mine at 5000miles when they installed the APR pump. They had a cam bucket on stand-by, but found it wasn't neccersary as mine was unblemished and black. Plus the cam-shaft was a newer...

    Not seen this to be honest until today about the pressure limiting valvebut reading into it it seems there was something uniquely wrong with this car whether it be due to the installation or a part malfunction independent of the pump. I've certainly not heard of this being a commonly seen...

    Good powerband, but its in the wrong place for me at least. Every one I've driven seems to demand to be ragged to do anything. Great fun on a track, but not so much fun on the roads.

    I'm no expert and I'm not always right, but I just read a lot and research stuff and chat to others in the know, that is all out there to find. :readit: Well SEAT are pretty much managed directly by Audi now, so were probably more closely related to you than we are to our VW cousins. :salute...

    Basically the fuel pump upgrade whether it be the APR solution which is a full replacement pump, or an Autotech or KMD solution where you change the internals of the stock pump is designed to increase the fuel pressure across the mid-range. The stock pump is driven off the camshaft lobe, and...

    It's difficult to be sure, as some of the engineering differences are still somewhat shrouded in mystery. :think: The S3 is believed to run a different compression ratio, may have some internal differences. Though i've yet to see evidence of this fact. There was also word that the S3...

    As i say, I'm no expert or engineer. But the many years i've been going to rolling road events around the country it's the kind of debate we often see after a meet like this. I've picked up a little bit of knowledge through experience and chatting to much smarter people. If you take the...

    Seen so many threads like this over the years. They are entertaining and in the most part irrelevant. Having been to a fair few rolling roads over the years, one way or another you'll never find a rolling road that is entirely accurate. Different software, different manufacturers of...

    Bit more power and a bit less torque. I think Awesome's is reading very high torque figures at the moment. But hey it's a Dyno Lottery™ :arco: You can see on a lot of these maps though, though they are achieving peak figures above mine in most cases (APR have tended to map over cautiously...

    Thanks for organising this Leon, and the folks at ProSport. Thanks to the rest of you from Audi-Sport for a warm welcome. Great way to spend an afternoon. :thumbsup: Good to see some figures for mine on a different RR too. I need to get myself an EVOMS or Dbilas intake now. The panel air...
