Lol, I have had a Supercharged Civic type R and its no where near as quick as the Golf.. Look at the 1/4 times.. There running mid 13's with road tyres..

This is turning into a my cars faster than yours type of argument, im not interested thanks..

Plus its not even your car that your talking about lol..  :grin:

Just let me know when anyone with a GIAC K04 Cupra runs faster than me..  :happy2:

case closed then coz thats not likely to happen any time soon.

Which, iirc you turned it into. The discussion was all about giav vs revo, till you mentioned your car vs giac powered ones.

Never gonna happen till DSG is available in a cupra and you know that  :happy2:

You mentioned Blades Giac Stage 2+ car, Mine is Revo Stage 2+, why is that not relevant?

If you can drive then there is minimal difference between Manual and DSG.. DSG is 30KG heavier than manual and has around 5% more transmission loss..

Anyways lets agree to disagree on this one  :smiley:

Not posted on here yet although i know why my ear has been burning recently :laugh:

Nice to see my car has caused some healthy debate. Jonny,s appraoch to performance enhancement via weight saving is the way to go - unfortunately being a married man, the wife would eventually notice the rear seats missing so i,m not going to get a faster car that way :signLOL:

Your approach has really given excellent results. Is the S3 going to be treated to a diet, or are you going to indulge yourself with some luxuries. With the power its going to make i think you should be made to tow a Smart car behind it  :jumping:

Well, the TBE is on and the new map is in also. Having some teething problems which are DV/Boost related l think. But the figures are 335bhp and 363ft-lbs.

You still have the ed30? There are some charged type-r's round here who will show you whats what. They are much lighter than even your golf.

On road tyres?? What times have they ran.. I saw a mid 12 run at Pod but that was stripped bare and on huge drag slicks and skinny rears.. Hardly a daily driver..

Im just talking from experience as I have owned both.. Sorry.. I would have thought that gave me enough info to comment? Presume you have too?
