Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before.
We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

Variations in tyres obviously will cause some inaccuracies. Plus the rev counter isn't all that good compared to pulling the engine speed with vcds.

not sure whether this is just smoothing or if it does come on this strong at ~3,500rpm

And this is where it gets tricky looking at dyno charts. 2 charts same car and the low rpm "response" looks quite different between the 2 runs:

It would be really interesting to see the same curves for the IS20 and IS38 standard turbos for comparison (tuned and stock).

For example the snail is making 350nm below 3000rpm on the graph above which is stock torque. Would need to do an apples with apples comparison though as a dyno measurement by itself is hardly reliable.Last edited by Psych101; 10-03-2019, 09:36 PM.

If you look at the graph, regardless of the boost threshold target, you're already making 1 bar of boost by 3000rpm, at 4000rpm you're making 1.75bar of boost.
People on the internet need to stop look at when a turbo reaches "max" boost at whatever RPM, if that car only had a target boost of 1bar, then you would be saying "wow that's a responsive turbo, it comes on at 3k rpm".
It's not laggy by any means, if you're fixated by numbers then you'll never be happy. Look at that torque wide torque band, and the very linear power, another reason why tuners/dyno operators don't show RPM - you're just priming your customer's thoughts.
When I tune cars for people, I don't even bother putting the boost plot. Just power, derived torque and AFR.Last edited by Dose Pipe Sutututu; 11-03-2019, 02:04 PM.Daily 2018 Tiguan MK2 Sportline (Drag & Drop Tune, 12.9s @ 108mph)

And now if you only look At the torque of the 10 or so graphs you've sent, the other dyno graph you so called laggy doesn't look "laggy" anymore does it?
You can make a turbo come on earlier with cam timing and low ignition timing but you sacrifice torque output.

These ones come on 500-1000rpm sooner which I think should be a benefit to daily drive ability.
Obviously tuning and other hardware make a difference to the response.
