NX Max 2 and C5... I am really starting to like what the MAX 2 has to offer as far as programability. Everyone knows how much of a problem C5s have keeping the tranny and rear in place when you really start pushing the HP envelope. I wonder how this would work...
Direct Port 300 shot
1st gear 3000 - 7400
Start 25%
End 50%
Ramp 1.5 seconds (60' mark)
Max shot 150
2nd gear 3000 - 7400
Start 45%
End 75%
Ramp .5 seconds to soften the blow to the tranny
max shot 225
3rd gear 3000 - 7400
Start 50%
End 100%
Ramp .5 seconds
4th gear 3000 - 8000
Start 50%
End 100%
Ramp .5 seconds
Direct Port 300 shot
1st gear 3000 - 7400
Start 25%
End 50%

Good lord! 7400 RPM!? 8000!!!?? I wish I could rev that high. Now, I don't have a C5, but an F-body instead and with an A4. I used end below 100% in 1st gear, but after seeing how much traction I actually got, put it up to 100%. And I'm using a 250 shot. Honestly, all you can do is try it, but as long as you're not running on bald street tires, what you have should be just fine.

C5s have a tough time with breaking output shafts and rear ends.

Phil, what you have sounds good as far as the Max 2 goes. However, I would recommend looking at setting the curve up using the rpm based program. This way if the tires break loose you can peddle it as needed. It just gives a little more flexibility to how the power comes in. Just a thought.

You can pedal it in more ways that one too with the MaxII. If you have your TPS ramp feature enabled... I believe that when you pedal it it will reduce the flow by ...I think it was 20%...cant remember. But thats another neat feature that could be combined in a few different ways in the setup. I plan to enable that feature and test it out in conjunction with the RPM based curves. I downloaded the curve feature today and its badass

383- Thanks for pointing that out, I always lump the TPS control in with the rpm-based program and forget to point out that feature. The trim amount is a maximum of 35% of the total power.
