I need some informations about Scirocco 2.0TSI 200hp for some reason.

I can't find the boost pressure. I only know it's 1.2bar for Scirocco R.

Other thing I need is gear ratios. I found this:
http://exchange.goo-net.com/ca ... SWAGEN__SIROCCO/10058625/
But 5th gear ratio doesn't make any sense, it's not even possible to set such value in LFS while 4th gear is 1.078. 5th gear doesn't seem to be very short if you look at acceleration videos at YT, for example:

I doubt it's a mistake since 4th and 5th gear ratios for every VW or Seat with 2.0TSI engines look that way

Another thing is suspension type and - if possible - the recomended tyre pressure.

Thats for now.

The "0" in 4th gear should probably be a "2."

AVG( 1.464, 1.093 ) = 1.2785

Boost is 0.8 bar. Or so I'm fairly certain it said in the manual
Suspension type? It's McPherson as usual, if that's what you're asking.

I'm sorry I can't remember tyre pressures in my head

ah your making the scirocco mod now.oki

This is because there are two final drive ratios. Apply the correct one for the corresponding gear ratios, and the overall ratios will fall in order.

They don't list values for the Scirocco but the closest Golf should run the same pressures: http://www.thetyrepressuremoni ... action=step2&maker=29

Manual? Do you own a real Scirocco?

I know it's McPherson at the front but I don't think it has McPherson at the back as well. I remember someone talking about multilink suspension at rear in that 150pages big Scirocco thread, but I'm not sure.

So, for example to get the 5th gear ratio I have to do this:
1.093 x 3.136 ÷ 4.058
?

Had one, yes.
You are actually right about the multilink rear suspension, never thought much about that. Apparently so does the new VWs like the 2011 Jetta.

It also has a heck of a lot of electronic driving assists. Any acronym you can come up with, like ABS, ASR, EDTC, EDL, EBD and ESP. Maybe it's hard to recreate some of these, no idea VW should supply their code/pseudocode for this stuff IMO.

I dug up a few more random numbers..
Front track - 1,569 mm
Rear track - 1,575 mm
Ground clearance - 133 mm
Turning circle - 11 m

I believe in the cast of the VW twin shaft gearbox, the numerically larger final drive ratio applies to 1st through 4th, and the smaller one for 5th and 6th.

Since I'm not so smart about suspension, could anyone tell which suspension type from the ones currently available in LFS is closest to multilink? McPherson Strut, Tralling Arm or Double Wishbone?

Quote from RasmusL :

What happened to it? Did you do the LFS vs Reality barrier crash test?
BTW are you good at making setups?

Thanks.

Double wishbone. Essentially with multi-link I think you'll just be missing out on any dynamic toe effects, if you otherwise get the geometry right. But I'm not quite so hot on multi-link either, so could be wrong.

Quote from Bob Smith :

Double wishbone.

I thought so. Thanks. I did some work today and got the double wishbone installed, that's how it looks like:

stock height


minimal height


maximal height


Is the shocks and wishbones placement acceptable? Handles pretty well

Another question - what kind of differential should I use?

Did a tyre on a Scirocco on Tuesday and the sticker on the petrol cap said the pressure is 33psi both front and rear (18 inch wheels) It was a TSI but not sure if it was the 200bhp version

u should of blacked out the data too,its clearly the scirocco specs :P

Specs are easy enough to change with LFSTweak. Although suspension specs are not. And it's "should have."

Quote from Amynue :

Looks sensible as a base. I don't have any data for what is correct though.

Quote from Amynue :

The standard car has an open diff but no idea about the faster one. In any case, traction control is probably essential.

Quote from Forbin :

Only because the developer never added them. They're no easier to change than any other part of memory. Getting them right is of course a little more difficult.

Maybe this is helpful in any way? Shows at least different values for fuel capacity and weight ...
