Thanks Pete
I'm sure others will address this also, but first how big is the track? What motor are you running?

I would start with 6.8 to 7.0 on FDR
40 Boost
2000 (on the low side) to 2800 on the RPM
0 deg on the endbell
Then check temp...
If you need a little more, then 1 or 2 marks add on the end bell.
what is your ramp? start around 2.0
What is your turbo delay? start around .14
What is your THROTTLE PROFILE? start at 4 or 5
What is your Throttle Minimum?, this is very nice feature, this is punch when you apply throttle, and it can help you get out the corner...

This is an excellent read: http://www.teamtekin.com/hotwire_RS.html

Also the Tekin thread is here: http://www.rctech.net/forum/electric...ml#post9360453

Hope this helps...
