@Rainer:

That curve looks quite impressive.

But I think I'll probably still prefer to stay at...
I'm sticking with my TDI.
(It's significantly cheaper to maintain [something] here in Austria.)

What did you use to create those beautiful curves?
Does this also work with a TDI engine?

Oh, hello!

Of course, a TDI would work. If Rainer is advertising, he's not trying to sell you a car. Take a look at the online shop here.

I also have another one from a 1.9L VE-TDI engine, but unfortunately, it only has 168 horsepower.

Hello,

Questions! Questions! Questions!... especially for Rainer.

Nice feature, but how am I supposed to understand the acceleration forces?

Are the G-forces being measured along the longitudinal axis of the accelerating vehicle, or is something else entirely meant by this?

Do the dips in the G-curve correspond to gear changes, and does the speed on the X-axis only represent acceleration in the highest gear? In other words, should we use 'V' (velocity) in 6th gear instead of RPM?

Are the G-forces calculated based on fundamental principles, similar to Ulf's thrust calculator, or does the adapter use a micro-mechanical sensor system to capture them? If so, its position within the car is crucial, isn't it?

Or is something completely different meant, which is obvious to every professional, and I've embarrassed myself again.

Thank you.

Tobias.

Hi,

It's much simpler; it just logs the speed and velocity. Along with the weight, everything else can be calculated by running through an acceleration and deceleration phase.
The jumps in the G-curve are caused by fluctuations in the sampled data output values. However, these jumps are usually not very large. Unfortunately, due to the weather conditions, I am currently unable to record any more "nice" curves.

Best regards, Rainer.

Okay, thank you.

It's only logical and straightforward to calculate the value of 'G' from the difference in readings across the speed range.

Which gear achieves a top speed of almost half a G?

Ich hatte mir nämlich auch mal Gedanken gemacht, das subjektive Popometer durch ein objektives G-Meter aus dem Kunstflug zu ergänzen. Scheiterte an den Preisen, der zu langen und groben Skalierung und der Einbaulage eines entsp. Thurry.


Best regards,

Tobias.

Which gear then reaches a peak of just under half a G?

Of course, considering the gear ratio that allows for the highest possible torque to be transferred to the drive wheels.

EDIT: Assuming that the 0.44 refers to the maximum g-force that the vehicle is capable of achieving. It seems a bit low for a vehicle with that much horsepower; during full braking, it should be possible to reach just over 1g.

Thank you very much.

Seatarosa1.7SDI, if I didn't have you.

Thank you, you're welcome .

I thought 0.44 G was also very low, which is why I asked. But if Rainer's readings are inaccurate due to the road conditions, then the car's ABC to XYZ traction control systems will also be reflected in his log files, or if those systems aren't present, the wheel slip itself. That's how I interpret his statement.

I also found that 0.44 grams was very meager.

Perhaps it is a sin?

Hmm... for example, an A3, because I know the values for that one.

50 km/h = 13.88 m/s
v = v₀ + a*t

a = (v - v0) / t = 13.88 m/s / 5 s = 2.778 m/s ²

-> G = a / g = 2,778 m/s ² / 9,81 m/s ² = 0,28 G mittlere Beschleunigung bei einem Auto mit 168PS und etwas leichter. It's okay. / It will be alright. / Don't worry about it.

Please remember that 0.44 G is equal to 4.31 m/s ² .

So, nothing about trucks . If the car accelerates at even half the speed of free fall, that's already quite impressive. Also, this is certainly not the maximum acceleration value, because during the performance test, it wouldn't make sense to shift gears.

How else do you usually get around, in a Starfighter or an F16?

What other vehicles do you typically use, Starfighters or F16s?

Well, I'm certainly not an advocate for such high G-forces, especially since they aren't supposed to be good for the cardiovascular system and capillaries.

Therefore, I prefer to keep the 10-cent tuning disabled on my AKU. Who knows what else might happen otherwise...

Before God and when braking, we are all (almost) the same .
Or are you not braking so that the AKU doesn't lose its momentum ?

Sure, that smiling while accelerating can potentially cause wrinkles in the mouth area over time...

Hi Joegolf,

"That thing about smiling and the wrinkles forming at the corners of your mouth is really no joke! I once got to drive a 430 HP RS4. The most powerful car I had driven before was my 100 HP PD-Golf. I actually spent two days just walking around with a grin on my face. (A comment from a colleague the next morning: "What are you grinning about? New girlfriend and had a lot of fun last night?")"
I'm currently trying to get an RS4 prescribed by my health insurance company as a treatment for the depression I experience when I'm in my Golf and something new starts rattling again!

Regards,
Micha.

P.S.: I would still appreciate a solution to this issue.

Okay, I'm ready. Please provide the German text you want me to translate into English. Just paste it here, and I will give you the translation.
