Needle must have jumped if you lost traction?

That's the same 0-60 as a mapped DSG MK7R

Maybe you did 0-60 kmph

Your measurement apparatus is incorrectly calibrated I'm afraid. You've given us a laugh though which is great :drinking:

Hey guys, some 0-60 time to be a little surprised at.

GTI mk 5 (standard) - revo stage 1 - revo air intake - full tank of v-power +

My mate was in the car with me on a flat dry quite road

1st run 0-60 = 5.66 secs
2nd run 0-60 = 3.70

3.70 seconds! Can this really be correct?! Its deffo under 5 secs for 0-60. The car does feel super quick! but under 4 secs for a standard GTI with stage 1, can't be?! :signLOL:


As you can tell I was well chuffed with this.
  :laugh:

Any thoughts?

I geniunely pissed myself laughing when I read this, thank you, no really, THANK YOU!!  :signLOL:


I doubt your car was even under 6 seconds but great story!  :signLOL: :signLOL:

I timed my Revo stage 2 GTI DSG to 60 in 5.8 seconds, crappy start but that's a more realistic figure.
Also had a full tank

3.7 seconds is dream world and i think you know it, lol.  :happy2:

My stage 2 Leon FR ran a high 5's as a manual but that was with a half tidy start on a dry day with decent boots on.

Sub 4 seconds is just silly

My old stage 2+ DSG ED30 could just do it on 5 dead, maybe a smidge under. But that was with a perfect launch.

There's no way a mapped GTI is doing it in the same time. Haha.

Mate it just wasn't, isn't and never will be  :grin:

The new golf R400 is a claimed 3.8 seconds to 60 and thats with 400 bhp, 4wd and launch control under perfect test conditions!

Regardless of bhp and mods etc no fwd car will ever achieve 3.7 seconds to 60mph the physics of traction simply wont allow it

yes this is true  :jumping:, allthough heavily deflated drag tyres on some huge FWD cars can get decent results

If the speedo reached an indicated 60mph, it could only have been down to wheelspin, which is understandable in a mapped GTI...
