Need Help with R8 '09

[BertDeal]

I have the R8 2.5 FSI '09 @842hp.Every time I hit the brakes it goes crazy,back end flys out. And pretty much any hit puts me out.

Parts:
Weight Reduction - Stage 1
Engine Tuning- Stage 2
ECU Tuning Chip
Sports Intake
Racing Air Filter
All top Exhaust Parts
Turbo- High RPM Rang kit
6 speed Trans
Twin Plate Clutch
Semi Racing Flywheel
Fixed Sports Suspension kit

Upgrade your tires and adjust your brake balance.

That's all .Ill try it.

Get a LSD.

Test to see if it happens just from lifting off the throttle or if braking is needed to cause it. If just throttle lift off causes it then increase locking on the coast of the diff (called deceleration sensitivity or something stupid like that).

If its braking then shift bias forward.

For both cases you could also stiffen front bump damper or rear rebound damper, but be careful this is only if the problem is the very initial weight transfer is too quck. Nvm, fixed suspension kit. Still could be a cause though.
More diff preload could maybe help.

Ok did that and added a wing seemed to help. But now I'm only going 187mph top speed is that all I'm going to get out off it right now. Do i need the full custom trans to go faster?

Yes, you'll need a transmission to change the ratio. The car will run well into the 200's.

Maybe adding a rear wing will help out generating some downforce.

 

[BertDeal]

Yeah I did that it helped .Put the new trans in ans now @220mph +, nice.

 

[Ratel]

If it is just on turn entry or when you brake then adding rear wing is a bad idea. Only add rear wing if it is oversteery almost everytime you turn when over (about)120 km/h.

Ya, what he said. Ha! Just got this car for the German series. Silly fast stock, can't imagine what it will be like after spending some money.
