I have indeed tried everything. Uninstalled all parts (power and trans). Reinstalled power parts, reinstalled trans, altered power limiter. Then when that didn't work, reset to default which did nothing. Uninstalled trans, reinstalled with power limiter at requested level, still different. Anybody else have any issues or is it just me?

@Motor City Hami .....I see you put a "competitors view" with your tune, but what if all we see is the front bumper in our rearview mirror?........as you lap us of course
@Otaliema - check out burnished brown/red, 69 Camaro SS

Buy a new one. They are not expensive and we don't have to break them in anymore.
If you have yanked everything and reinstalled and its not matching than its one of three things, your car is glitched, you have the wrong car or @Motor City Hami typoed when posting.
I'll build it here in about fifteen to check if I can match up.
Edit;
I was able to match up to with in .001 of posted numbers but I had to take the engine upgrade off....
RPM max needs to read 7200 RPM to get the transmission to match.

Maybe I need to buy a new one? I did a lot of testing. I will check the build tonight.

Bought a brand new one.
Installed Engine 1 Sport Cat, 6 speed numbers as follows.
1st 2.896
2nd 1.999
3rd 1.481
4th 1.149
5th 0.933
6th 0.793
Final gear 4.062
Changed Sport cat to Sport Exhaust
1st 2.856
2nd 1.972
3rd 1.461
4th 1.133
5th 0.920
6th 0.782
Final gear 4.062
I think maybe you changed parts on the car and the transmission didn't get reset, as the gearing matches the sport exhaust, but the Power limited listed in the tune matches the sport cat.
The transmission numbers where identical to the one I did all my tuning with that had over 100 km on it. as my posted tune suggests I liked the '06 over the '13 so not a ton of distance on it.

Pffffff, I'll have another look at the car tonight, but in all likelihood, I'm going to pull my entry. I'm not in the slightest bit happy with the car(s), it's proved to be hugely frustrating trying to get the car to just feel comfortable, let alone drivable
Not sure if I should lower my expectations or raise my game...{Cy}

I vote fore raise your game, Your Evo tune was fantastic. If you have time to tune today, treat the focuse like it's a FR for suspension set up, just flip your normal damper settings.Pffffff, I'll have another look at the car tonight, but in all likelihood, I'm going to pull my entry.

If any power mods alter the RPM redline (anything in the left hand column of the tuning screen) it alters the gear ratios.
I believe its something to do with the fixed ratio boxes aiming to meet a specific pre-set speed limit and needing to alter the ratios to adjust for RPM change.
Its a bit odd but thats just the way it is unfortunately, transmissions should always be reset when altering power tuning parts unless otherwise stated by the tuner 👍

Not totally sure, would think if the numbers have changed it should right? But, with PD........

Resetting defaults does the same as uninstalling and re-installing the transmission, so it saves a few button hits is about it.

2.896 does seem low for the first gear, I think the lowest I remember seeing was 2.905. Can't remember what addition I made to get it to that. Are all of the other numbers adding up?
Tune built as posted, all other numbers are spot on, except for gear ratios.

@Bowtie-muscle Thank you on the suggestion, not quite what I was looking for.

I did find one one finally, (i think anyways) I wont blame anyone if they don't buy it, it's 1.32 million credits

Which car have you been tuning, the 2006 or the 2013? I posted both cars that I tuned but selected the 2013 to enter. I cannot believe how similar the two tunes ended up.
You should enter a 2013 along with @NEWDRIVER2 so that the car count will be even. That will help me to think that I haven't chosen the wrong car.

Thank you, Sir. I'm going to have a sly pint with my wife first, then I'll fire up the PS3 and see if the cider might inspire me
I've tried all sorts of combinations of dampers, springs, etc. Each time I drop about 0.250 off the pace and within a couple of laps, I'm right back on it. Desperately annoying...
I had been tuning both, but the slightly better weight distribution and the looks of the 2013 have had me testing that one more than the '06. If I find the aforementioned inspiration, I'll be sure to post the 2013 👍Which car have you been tuning, the 2006 or the 2013? I posted both cars that I tuned but selected the 2013 to enter.

Toe -0.75/-0.95
Wow, You weren't kidding. That's bucket loads of toe right there.
I have a question about the transmission - Does it change if you install it first, before all the power upgrades? Because that's the way I did mine. I had no idea it changed if it does.
