S3 Performance Figures

[DavidT]

Can someone post figures for 0-60, 0-100 and qtr mile for standard and modified cars please ?

It was interesting that the chipped S3's were the same as my standard S4 down the straights at Castle Combe, so I wondered what the stats say.


Cheers

David

David, I believe they are 265bhp, but are running slightly less torque. Not sure on timings though.

IIRC Al B and Moff got around 14.5 for their ¼ miles if thats anyhelp.

Mac did some timings in S3Bangs car and was getting about 5.9/6.0 0-60's with an AmD remap.

Got the dynos for my remap somewhere, see if i can dig them out.

Yep. Moff and I achieved 14.5s 1/4 mile at Santa Pod last summer. Speed on the 1/4 wad 93mph.

Moff recently bettered the time at Santa Pod, with 14.42 and 95 mph. I just spectated this time around.

A video was taken of my run against Daz. I'm sure its hanging about somewhere...probably on Gaunty's server if thats still alive. But counting the seconds to just after the 2nd gear change on the vid (not very accurate I know), I reckon my 0-60 was easily in the low 6's.

Ahhhh hello there AL,

How is the motor going? [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/s3addict.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/clap.gif[/img]

[AL_B]

Riz,

Good thanks. Performing quite well except for that bloody hesitation (very intermittant) when on boost. It performed very well during last weekends Buxton meet, with Julians S4 needing to be worked hard to keep with me through twisties.

How's yours?
