I think adding power mods then using the powerlimiter still gives you more torque.Can anyone else see if this is right.
^ I'll try this now. Thanks.
Don't try this!... Unless you have already
It does indeed up your torque, the downside being;
When you use the power limiter, you effectively give yourself maximum power over a longer band of rpm. This will in-turn up your PP reducing the maximum power you can have.
For example, the 430 Scuderia you drive can have 470BHP (IIRC) with stock mods and 1380kg and gives you 470BHP over about a 1500rpm range. If you then go and add mods, your torque goes up (marginally) and you may only be able to have 450BHP but it will be spread over a band of 3000rpm plus. This may sound more attractive, but is actually slower because if the Scuderia is geared correctly you operate over about a 1750-2250rpm range (IIRC again), effectively wasting 750rpm of peak power but still getting hit with the PP rise that comes from it. I have tried this with the F430 and found that an untuned version was faster than a tuned one for this exact reason.
My 458 I used had all the mods and I have no doubt I could go substantially faster if I bought another one fresh with no mods other than bringing weight down to the required level.
Problem being, with my B-spec drivers stuck in cyber space, I'm too lazy and/or cheap to invest in a new 458...
As for the tune of a Scuderia, I will give you my 458 tune (IIRC yet again) and that should not be too far wrong, although the Scuderia I believe has more understeer so you may need to work on that, try placing ballast at +50 and see if that helps... 👍
Aero: Minimum or Zero
Ballast: ~150kg @ +15 (but depends on how much you have)
Transmission: 280-90 (Gears to suit driving style)
LSD: 10/30/5
Suspension:
Minimum +8/Minimum +5
8.5/10.0
6/7
5/6
5/6
Camber & Toe:
0.5/0.0
0.00/0.00
Brake Balance: 4/3
Give that a go and see if it helps. I ran ABS=1 and nothing else with that setup or, at least, very similar to that! Can't remember... It has been over 5 days since I ran this challenge last...
