I was running a novak ballistic until it cooked ( 2 runs @ 70'c, then 3rd came off at 110'C ) and it was lacking in brakes too :-(
these were my settings:-
7.4 FDR
1. Running Mode -For/Brake
2. Drag Brake -0%
3. Volt Prot -3.0v/cell
4. DRRS Punch Level -9
5. Brake Force -100%
6. Reverse Force -100%
7. Initial Brake -40%
8. Neutral Range -6%
9. Boost Timing -40
10. Turbo Slope -fastest
11. Overheat -Enable
12. Turbo Timing -24
13. Start RPM -8000
14. Turbo Delay - none
15. Timing ACC -250
I would run a delay especially with a 70 meter straight turbo is on instantly from start to finish of the straight and that would make the motor very hot as its at its end of the gearing top end .
drop the punch level to 8
boost timing to 28-32
turbo timing is ok maybe 22-24
start rpm 4000
turbo slope say 18 as your ramping up the turbo to quick .\\
try that and let us know .
