Default 3.5 FATS is unpossible with 2+...right? Just did my first logs

and one was 3.46 and the other was 3.53 on Tom P's calc. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. Please point out the error of my ways :-) I can email them to someone if that helps. I'm such a noob at this. Computers on the seat, pushing buttons and flooring it in 3rd doesn't seem natural. Need to do more I guess. Oh, GIAC X, 91 craptane, 60 deg. and a full weight fat *** wagon on stock rims and snows. Like I said this can't be right...right?

Default That was my thought. I'm sure I did something wrong, just waiting for the experts.

BTW, how is your stg 3 doing now?

Either downhill or you were in 2nd gear.

Default It was dead flat, but would the "G 0002" mean 2nd?

From the log:

Sunday 9 April 2006 23:05:10
8D0 907 551 M 2.7l V6/5VT G 0002




That would seem right since I was flailing at the buttons trying to hit start right before I hit 4200. Do I have to be in 3rd when I hit the start button?

Default I think Chris hit it. I think the program was logging in 2nd.

Funny thing is I did'nt floor it in 2nd, and look at the throttle angle is at 100% during the Fats section. Believe me, though I've not been in a stg 3 car, I have a hard time believing this time as the car does not feel "that" fast, + the fact that I'm on 91 and a heavy avant.

Who is "Tom P"? Yeah, those logs are likely in 2nd - most stg3 OTS kits are ~3.9 in 3rd

Default I concur with the 2nd gear theory. Looking at the rpm/sec, which usually

matches pretty well with acceleration, you're peaking around 5000-5500 rpm. Kind of unusual since most plots I've seen show max acceleration around max torque, and that typically occurs at a slightly lower rpm. I doubt the K03's make maximum torque at that high of an rpm.
