Sash came through for our Black Friday Specials to give his VW Touran a special RK touch...Whilst chatting, he also confirmed his 530d will also be in for some RKmotion peri peri....:cartel:

Car is more responsive lower gears, however the Elderly-Mobile will be dyno'd soon to compare results from previous tune :chef:

Thanks guys,

My butt dyno says there is a difference, definitely at higher speeds, while at lower speeds the car is more driveable and more responsive. I cant confirm yet, but there seems to be an improvement in consumption, but obviously dependant on how heavy your right foot is.

I hope to go back to Kar soon for figures.

Awesome figures...is dyno run in 3rd gear better than dyno run in 4th gear?
Reason I ask is because I always hear that it's better to do it in 4th gear...

The best gear is the one that has the closest to 1:1 ratio. On the 6spd auto by zf , the ratios are 1.521:1 for 3rd, 1.143:1 for 4th and 0.867:1 for 5th.

You see then that either 4th or 5th would work, but 3rd would give a different figure.
