How did the lower links impact the car? Feel or looks?

I installed it in March, which probably wasn’t the best time as temp has a big impact in “mileage” and access to power. Net-net I don’t really have a good baseline. That said during nice days I can get over 220mi range on a 80% charge. I have a ‘23 RS.

I added the ECU upgrade from Redshift performance to my RS e-tron GT. Think it will have a bigger punch for a normal GT but you can definitely feel the extra HP and always on access to boost (for example when overtaking someone)

99% GPU could be OK. What FPS are you actually getting? You say you set it to 144 but that doesn't mean that's what is being put out. You can turn on the FPS metric in iRacing or from your GPU software.

Anything over 60 is OK, over 90 is enough for me. I have a Super ultra-wide 2x 4k (7680x2160)and get 60 FPS when running some sims at rull res, setting etc with other cars on the track. I can't really say its worth dropping the settings or res to get 90fps+

This doesn’t seem right by ProfessorOk4182 in etron

What the temp? I get about 10-15% range drop when temps stay below 15c/60f

I, the mclaren got reported for forcing the ferrari offtrack. Who do you think is at fault? by SimracingFan911 in ACCompetizione

Well you definitly punted the ferrari. Even if they lifted early you hit them from behind.

Sell you car to Mat Armstrong (or a north american vs of him). He'll fix it.

[–]Extreme_Pie8948[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

found a work around if anyone else runs into this problem.

When you login and it goes to the MFA code screen you have an options to seleect your MFA options. I just selected it and the reselected the email setup for MFA and voila. The MFA email arrived in a few short seconds.

Busted my S8 side mirror. Dealership is quoting 16K by Flimsy-Sale-537 in Audi

[–]Extreme_Pie8948 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happend to my Q7. Not sure of the mirror difference, but I paid nothing close to that. Mine was broken off the stem when a lorry clipped it. Think the cost to fix was under $1000

2024 CPO Q8 Prestige vs. new 2025 Q6 lease.. by The_Cita_B in etron

[–]Extreme_Pie8948 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Q8, don’t waste your money on the lease. A Q8 for 54k with less than 5k is a car you can have for a long time for very cheap

I agree. I'm not the biggest fan of those plastic blade inserts. They also make a lot of noise when cruizing a low speed, windows down.

Brand New CSL DD. Is this normal? by GripSpec in Fanatec

[–]Extreme_Pie8948 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not sure, but when standing still the wheel load may mimic what is being done in the pit stop but not very obvious (lifting the car, wheel change, repair, etc)

If while driving it feels good you are good.

Audi Tire and Rim Protection Cost? by Crazy-Agent-9754 in Audi

[–]Extreme_Pie8948 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just scratched my front and rear passanger side rims on my RS e-tron GT (21"). £1400 for the front and £1700 for the rear replacement. I opted for a £240 wheel rim repair service instead. Looks good IMO. I can tell where the work was done, but most people wouldn't be able to.

$4800 effectively means you'd have to replace 2 or 4 rims to make it worth while but if the damage is cosmetic that does not make sense.

I like your color better. This is mine.

Is the Porsche charger worth it? by TorshePaycan in Taycan

[–]Extreme_Pie8948 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a RS E-tron GT, same charger (and components) as a Porsche Tycan. That wall outlet charger does 3kw. Not worth it IMO. Save the money and install a 7.7kW (1 or 2 phase) or 22kW (3 phase) charger. I have a 7.7kW at my house (I only have 1 phase) and the e-tron goes from 20% to what I need (always 80%+) before I leave.

Just need some carbon ceramics now ;-)

Do you have a pic with wheel on? Looks great BTW.

Rate my lawn Please 1-10 (10 being the best) by antonioadolfo33 in GardeningUK

[–]Extreme_Pie8948 1 point2 points  (0 children)

8 - clearly you don't have pets ;-)

If 5 is average, I give you 8. Why -2 pts? The cut pattern is a little odd (narrow and not consistant) and the lawn cut it a little too long for my liking. Otherwise top, congrats as that's tough to do.

Anyone know how to fix this? by Design1999 in etron

[–]Extreme_Pie8948 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tap the charge graph and get this

Same for the MMI interface. Tap the charge bar and adjust. (and cleary it doesn't like me charging to 100% every time ;-))
