The fats are only to gauge where my car is at compared to where it was previously. When I first got the car it was a 2.9 fats. 2.5 fats when I ran 11.9

Leakdown tests are fun on an rs6. You have to put the car in service position because there is so little room between the crank bolt and the core support.
When we did the leakdown, the crank would move once we put air into that cylinder so the only way we could get a reading would be one of us trying to hold the crank still so the cylinder would be tdc. My readings were about 15% on most, 19% on two of them and 7% on another.

Also, I have a shorter 3rd and 4th gear with the b5 rs4 trans. This supposedly means my fats times are actually .2 seconds slower than what they read on another car with a b5 s4 01e with standard gearing. I don’t really compare my fats times to others but when I post pics of my fats times other places it always seems to turn into a debate about the gearing and if the weight of the car offsets that or not

The B6/7 S4s have the same problem with no space to turn the crank by hand. We’re you sure that the pistons were at top dead center? Also did you go in the firing order?

Okay, I asked because if you have the piston at TDC on the exhaust stroke then the air pressure will spin the crank. Also if you go in the firing order, it is easier because that way you don’t spend so much time spinning the crank to find TDC.
