Surely you'd get about 10bhp. It was testicles anway cos I was thinking of what you get with those and cams upgrade. I really have no idea what I'm talking about - I'll keep trying though
Cant tell you it's a secret, only a few on here know about it. I had to get something faster than yours .
I drove a Tommi Makinen Evo6 back from dartford docks to St.ALbans About 60 miles and i have to say that they are awesomely quick and i have to say even with a caravan (with flat tyres) on the back of his car he would still beat you infact i reckon a caravan and a family of twenty refugees sitting inside and the Evo would still beat you! No amount of Stripping your car or adding any exhaust and filter would help you. Just say to him that youve been rather silly and that your sorry. Richgits on the other hand would probably keep up with him if he could get all the power down
A power fc? What sort of thing is that really? Pffff Apexi? never heard of them if he'd of said Peco or something then maybe id of taken him seriously. Could be worse I suppose, at least he aint got Anti lag ehh Weebl.
Does anyone know whos that Golf is that attends TOTB? Awesome machine that is, 2 20v quatro engines? Maybe he'd borrow me that, then id woop him.
Whats wrong with Peco? Ill have you know I had one on my Mk1 cab and it was cool. Gave at least 10 Bhp if I remember correctly.
Take it you used the GTD front engine mount on that Mike, with the smaller, fatter, thinner, longer bigger bolt from the dealer? Otherwise it'll rip the rear intercooler to shreds as soon as you take it down the strip?
I found this info on the evo Lancer Evolution V Type: CP9A 280ps (276bhp) / 38.0kg-m (275ft.lbs) JANUARY 1998 1340Kg Thats quite a lot of Hp.
I think you plan should read something like "Oops, I totally under estimated what your car can do and totally over estimated what my car can do. Can I go and hide in the corner now?"
well its not untill the 16th October, I figured i'd come on here beforehand and get some tips on getting some power out of the ol VW. I also thought it would be good to get some idea of the chance I stood. I'm quite shocked tbh that everyone thinks im going to get wasted. I figured i'd at least beat him by 5 secs. [:^(]
Never, I could never do that, Ill just have to beat him anotherway. I know I can beat him but maybe not in the golf afterall.
5 seconds, which planet are you from!? You might beat him by 5 seconds if it was a race to see who could fill up their petrol tank at Shell the quickest. Short of turning your Golf into rwd or 4wd and more than doubling the power you're not going to see which way he went (if the Evo spec is as you say) in a 0-60/100 1/4 mile whatever really. Even in a track race unless you spend serious on the car then you will still be behind.
The info I posted is the spec of a standard car, his has one of those powder fcs on and he says its about 350Hp. I dont think 5 seconds given my limited knowledge of the car was unreasonable.. Btw Evos have a small tank so he'd prolly beeat me at filling up.
