Hi Gordon mate,

Saw this thread yesterday and thought I would join in the fun on the way home last night.

Did 3 runs in the manner suggested , times :

8.2s

8.1s

8.3s

Rather dissapointed as you can imagine
...

However .......................

I then realised that I had forgotten the trailer was on the back with the Radical on it and the boot was full of tools
and spares etc.

Will log a more representative time later this week after trip to Oulton Park tomorrow !

:biggrin3:

Prawn .
I think we should all try this new test, Why don't we call it:
"How fast will it go with your lightest weight, track car and tools in the back test"
So far:

no 1 Prawn 8.1 sec Fmic 500bhp (apx) mtm stage 3.
:shock:

What next?


John Blade, that is an awesome time 7 sec .
My car is in the Garage getting new cam timing sensor and gasket .
When it comes back I am going to make it do this test in 7 sec.
I'm sure it did it once in 7.3 and also 6.8 but at the moment the best I've had is 7.5 maybe my last test was into the wind :piss:

Just for a change eh Gordon ?

I swear your car does more miles back and forwards to the Audi garage than anywhere else!

Remember it becomes very easy to hit the watch on the favourable side of the start and stop points. There is a competitive element here after all! So that's half a second deviation already. Add to that trying to do all this at 110mph with one hand off the wheel...

So the margins for 'error' must be reletively huge.

Hi Bob,
Nice to see you're finally abusing your car.
I'm not really surprised that the 'stage 3' cars are running similar times as the 'stage 1' cars.I suppose the extra power the stage 3 cars have is mainly noticable at the top end.So all cars should have very similar times as long as the timekeeping is being done correctly.I had a passenger timing me....Mr Lambo (Known to various members of this site....) so am quite confident of the recorded times.

How about a side to side test one of these days.Would be interesting to to campare Revo stage 1 with Miltek cat bac v stage 3.....obviously on safe grounds.

PS Have you finally moved out of London ?

I knew you were up to something John Blade.
In court your figures would never stand up.
How can the passenger have an accurate idea of the revs if he is sitting at an angle of 45' . :ban:

Seriously I would think most chipped cars should do the test in similar times that is why it is important and interesting. But the results are mixed. and deservedly so.
Look at Prawn :FIREdevil:
And also Steve smee :bigblink:
Then look at me :dung:

Further reporting will follow on my times,
Lets all be accurate and careful I use a nokia mobile and use the lap timing in the extras menu it is ace for this.

Seriously, private roads or Autobahn only for this test .
I Do not mind nor I'm sure does anyone else, if some people want to just make up there times as these jokes are always amusing.
It would also be nice if we could get some of those fast S4's on again but this time in the right gear. :biggrin3:

My 7.5 is defo made up, I'm sure my car is faster than that really, some day I will prove it . :x


I will do a new thread soon for a vag com test.
We will set the parameters and we will try that one also if pos.
Don't worry if you do not have vag just phone a friend.

Hi John, would gladly have a run with you, but unless we could close part of the A3, I think we might be asking for trouble. You'd certainly stop faster than me. Yup I've moved out of shitsville SW11, and am nicely nestled in the cotswolds. Sods law I'll get my car nicked now, but what a joy, no more speed bumps, or 'mums on the run'...

update:

Now that its colder (3C or ~37F) I tried more boost which gave really nice power. time from 3000rpm to 6000 was 6.76sec from vag-com on 4th gear.

Didn't watch the boostgauge at the run but on 3rd gear its 1.7bar to 1.5bar

I just did the test to compare,
its a S4 with mrc remap, conservative though roughly 315bhp. 19" rs6 wheels other than that standard.
i made sure i timed exactly on 3k + 6k
my figure is 11.1 seconds which i dont think is too bad for a pretty stock s4
Ol
S4 B5 - MRC
