Not sure on the red dot displays but the white dot ones also do it based on WHEEL SPEED MPH (which is the ACTUAL speed - Speedo overreads by about 4-8mph depending on your Speed Impulse number on VCDS).

For example mine will show cruise control at 30, dial would be 30, MFD speed readout be 26.

Ergo if you timed Rich's 0-60 on a video camera it would be ever so slightly quicker, the time it takes to pull the extra 4-8mph.

What he said. ^^

Its got a timer on it so you can do XXXmph - XXXmph timed runs, you can set what speeds.  :smiley:

How much are they? And how easy are they to fit??

I've noticed the speed reading on the climate control display, in the hidden menu, reads lower than my speedo.
Might be more of a true reading

It's the same reading PolarFIS give on red dot MFA+ and that white dot MFA+ give from factory. It's the ECU speedometer. :wink:

That's easily doable.

I have a Mk2 Leon Cupra with stage 1 and my 0-60 time is just under 3 seconds!  :signLOL:

Stage 2+ Golf R DSG (360+bhp) only does 3.6s. Hopefully that puts things into perspective

I am guessing that is a MK6 R you are referring to instead of the MK7?
A MK7 R at Stage 2+ would be over 400+BHP wouldn't it?

Yeah 6R (Hurdy's build thread  :signLOL:)

7R as stock does 4.6 as tested by Autoexpress  :jumpmove:

7R stage 1 (370-380bhp) does 3.7 (although GIAC recon they can beat that with their tune  :jumping:)

Manual around 5 seconds??.. DSG at 4.6 is very quick !
