Audi 016 AFC Code box?

I've got a turbo trans with an AFC code that is mated to my engine. My Audi book has no AFC code. A long time ago I made a transmission spreadsheet which I sent out to Bob and Wayne and some others. Wayne modified it and added stuff to it. Does anyone have a sheet or info on the AFC code tranny?

You posted the AFC ratios earlier...
Where did you get that info?
Last I heard...German Transaxle had (1) AFC left.

Did I? I searched for that but couldn't find it and figured I never did it. I got those ratios from the folks at German Trans and verified it with a Porsche guy who knew them too. Any link?

Got it!

So, with a 6500 RPM limit and a 25.64" tire it shows:

Box S/N AFC
Ratio Max Speed
Final 3.89
First 3.60 35.45
Second 1.94 65.79
Third 1.23 103.76
Fourth 0.90 141.81
Fifth 0.72 177.26
RPM for 72 mph 2642.63

So, it is a little bette than the 5N and AAZ for top speed and should make a good track box but not so great for cruise.

For those that are interested the 3.44 R&P really won't help much:

3.60 40.09
1.94 74.39
1.23 117.34
0.90 160.36
0.72 200.45
Cruise 72mph at 2336. But at least it makes it to 200 mph at 6500 rpm!!!!

Now, if we build a motor that can take 7500 RPM the standard AFC box can do:

Final 3.89
First 3.60 40.91
Second 1.94 75.91
Third 1.23 119.73
Fourth 0.90 163.63
Fifth 0.72 204.53

Not bad, might be the way to go.

Ron - Some time back I locatred an AFC box at the local wreckers. It was in a 5 cylinder turbo gasoline car. I inquired on the forum as to any info on the ratios but no one seemed to know of this particular one. I seem to remember that you answered my queery at the time and that you emailed the spreadsheet with the known codes and ratios - but no AFC. This is the only reference to this code that I have seen until you put up your post here. I am planning on running this transaxle in my 40 but did not know the ratios. Best regards, Orin Meyer

Did we every hear from Robert what ratio his new 5th was going to be? Just as a thought...rather than import
an entire gearbox from Europe...maybe someone could just
yank 4th and 5th gears from a Q or U code box and ship them over. This way the shipping/import cost would be next
to nothing. If used trans sell for same as over here
($ 200- $ 300), I'd gladly pay that just for the gears.

For comparison..what are 4th and 5th gear ratios
in the Mustang T-5?

Thx

The T-5 ratios can be found on my gear ratio spreadsheet. www.gt4d.com under whats new section.

Thanks Gary.
