LS1 Edit - RWTQ parameter? 99 WS6 w/ A4
On one of the tabs there is a spot to change the max RWTQ value. The default is 350. Does anybody know what this is for? Is it a limiter? Will bumping it up allow more TQ transmission by taking out some TQ management? Anyone know?

Re: LS1 Edit - RWTQ parameter? This will make the computer take out timing to reduce power when shift occurs and RWTQ is higher than the inserted value. I assume this is to save the transmission.
You won't like the effect if you are putting out much more torque than this value.
Mine is set to 600. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">

Re: LS1 Edit - RWTQ parameter? Yep, this is the breakpoint at which calculated engine output torque triggers the torque management protocol. Your best bet would be to log a run, look at the greatest delivered torque value, and set the value in this table to ~100ft-lbs higher.
