Master Part 34 in Need for Speed Heat! Get the optimal tuning setup for Aerodynamics, Tires, Brakes, ECU, Turbo, Nitro, and Suspension to dominate the track.
Alright, let's get your ride dialed in for Part 34. This section is all about fine-tuning your car's performance parts to get the best out of it, especially for drifting. We'll go through each component, so you know exactly what to aim for.
Aerodynamics: For this part, you'll want to max out both your front and rear downforce. Setting them to 9.98 for the front and 10.00 for the rear is the way to go. While this won't affect your dyno run, it'll make a noticeable difference when you're out on the track, giving you more stability.
| Front Downforce | 9.98 |
| Rear Downforce | 10.00 |
Tires and Brakes: You're aiming for maximum grip here. Set both your front and rear tire grip to 10.00. As for the brakes, the guide suggests you shouldn't really need them if you're handling things right, so the Brake Bias setting can be anywhere between -0.50 and 0.50.
| Front Tire Grip | 10.00 |
| Rear Tire Grip | 10.00 |
| Brake Bias | -0.50 - 0.50 |
ECU: The goal here is to get a lot of torque at high RPMs, specifically from 4000-5000 RPMs. The numbers below represent settings for different stages of your ECU tuning. It's not an exact science, but aim for these ranges:
| 0-1 | 130-135 |
| 1-2 | 140-145 |
| 2-3 | 150-155 |
| 3-4 | 160-165 |
| 4-5 | 180-185 |
| 5-6 | 180-185 |
| 6-7 | Maximum |
| 7-8 | Maximum |
| 8-9 | Maximum |
Turbo: Similar to the ECU, you want to build up that torque at high RPMs. Here's how you should set your turbo:
| 0-1 | Nothing |
| 1-2 | Nothing |
| 2-3.1 | 10-15 |
| 3.1-4.3 | 26-28 |
| 4.3-5.4 | 50-53 |
| 5.4-6.5 | 70 |
| 6.5-7.6 | 88-90 |
| 7.6-8.8 | Maximum |
| 8.8-10 | 78-80 |
Nitro: For nitro, you're looking for a setup that's powerful but also lasts a good amount of time. The guide suggests a setting near 4. From 0, press right 4 times on your controller. This should give you a good boost when you need it.
Suspension: For this part, especially if you're focusing on drifting, you'll want a low stance with soft springs and shocks, but stiffer sway bars. The steering ratio should be medium.
| Front Lowering (in) | -1.30 |
| Rear Lowering (in) | -1.29 |
| Front Springs | 0.00 |
| Rear Springs | 0.00 |
| Front Shocks | 10.00 |
| Rear Shocks | 10.00 |
| Front Sway Bar | ... |
Tips: Remember, these settings are optimized for performance, especially for drifting. Don't be afraid to experiment slightly if you feel something isn't quite right for your driving style, but this setup should give you a solid foundation.
