Wow marcos they are very different FDR's to what I ran a 17.5 at - quite similar track size i believe from the setup sheet.

Are you putting max timing and boost into the 13.5 as well?

I have been running 6.1 with great results for a 17.5, but you suggest trying around 4.8 interesting.

well i will be running the 13.5 this weekend and would have expected to be about 7.1, but might also try going to your FDR of 6 to see what happens

I could not get the file to work, it is just script.

I went out this morning and ran the new software and it was pretty fast, I would like it to kick in earlier on the straight. I was running a 5.40 and was just gaining speed all the way through the sweeper. The car is still wanting to push out and not hold through it as much now that I have all this speedbut my laps are faster so I really cannot complain. I just need to figure out how to hold this all now.

Here is a picture of our track. We are getting ready to lay new carpet and there have been some renovations going on also. It is 75x40 with decent grip most of the time

I was doing testing with 100422 at a 100x48 indoor asphalt track. Not sure what your settings are. I ran the same settings as Marcos except #14 was set to #1 and #15 was set to #1. FDR was 6.15. Dropping #14 should kick in earlier. SP17.5v3
Hope this helps.

I'm running a photon with the 422...

11.5 T with FDR 7.5

Settings on 422:
9 - 7
12 - 8
13 - 4
14 - 5
15 - 4

After a 5 minute run, motor temp is a whopping 88 degrees celcius (ambient temp is approximately 33 degrees celcius)

love the new software... but apart from adjusting s/w to bring temps down (at the expense of infield punch and speed on the straight), what else can I try? Or is there really something wrong with my settings?

Try my set up that I posted and also I would go to 6.5 to a 7.0 ratio.
