Tuned at Laguna Seca for Driving Force Pro. 1'33.946... very Fumes-ish :0)

I supercharged this one without a N/A Tune and found the supercharger pulls more torque in lower rpms than would a turbo that has to spool up. Makes it a nice driver without any unexpected power surges from a turbo hitting its "happy place" mid apex.

OK, I need a DFP. This setup has waaay too much understeer using the controller. Best I could manage with a Turbo was 1'42.643.
This had nothing to do with what you think, if you even think at all.

DS2 setup
Post #2 - Updated 07/05/2005 9:24 PM
Neon Dragon,........ DFP is definately the way to go...... much more smooth and precise. How do you have your DS2 setup? I used to use "X" for gas and R1 for the brakes leaving it possible to remain under power,..... important to keep the turbo spooled up,..... while allowing a micro adjustments with the brake. If you go with the Driving Force Pro, I built a great race stand for about $15.00 worth of materials and would be happy to share the plans,....... lemme know. Check Overstock.com for the deal on your DFP.

I’m behind that one hundred and ten percent! I built my racing stand out of PVC pipe, a few pieces of scrape wood, an old driver’s side seat from a scrape yard, and last of all a really nice seat cover that is two tone and sports “NX Racing” on the back. In all it cost less than a $100 (includes painting it) and took only a few hours to do (most of the time spent letting the paint dry). If you want just drop me an email and I will shoot you some pics I took of it. My email address is in my profile, it is a bogus account just for GT4 needs, so there is no worries that I will loose someone’s email as I weed through the spam my real address gets.

I've heard nothing but high praise for the Driving Force Pro, unfortunately, I'm on a tight budget. I've got my eyes open and my ear to the ground for a good deal, though. My dual Shock 2 controller scheme is conventional. (X for gas, suare for brake, etc)

If you care to give it a try,....... go into setup options for the DS2 dualshock and change the Brake to R1 and the e-brake to R2......... rotate upshift and downshift to L1 and L2. Give it a whirl , I bet you find your driving much smoother. L8tr, Brian

crazy good
Post #10 - Posted 03/16/2007 8:42 AM
Nicely done, i just ran a 1.27.179 on my 1st lap(with a lil nitrous) at leguna seca, i have no idea what that dude was saying when he said this setup understeers, it's crazy good. I had no understeer or oversteer and I don't use TCS. I have not tried the setup with any traction control so i don't know if that somehow made him understeer. This car is crazy fun with this setup, thanks dude.
See you in my rear view.
