Im not entirely sure.
Its a mk3 1.6Cl Golf.

so i think its something like:
75bhp (pathetic i know)
0-60 in 13.5 (factory stats) - somehow ive done this in 11s, in the wet, with wheelspin ... even if the speedo is showing a little more than the actual speed this seems a little strange. the car had a very easy life its first few years (before i got my hands on it and apparently this makes the car run very well.. i dont know how true this is)
ive taken it to 115mph on the speedo so id say maybe 105-110mph actual speed. felt like it could do a little more, though not much.

cheers,
jay

1/4 Mile: 14.6 @ 98MPH.
0-60: 6.6 seconds.
Top Speed: 143 est.
Horsepower: 205
Torque: 225 ft/lbs

I honestly have no idea how fast she can go. The speedometer oly goes up to 125 but I have managed to burry the needle and get it back up to the 30MPH mark before I reached the redline. My guess would have been around 140-145MPH. My car is pretty much stock.

If 60 takes 7.3, your car must pick up speed extremely well after 60mph to achieve 15.2s for the 1/4mile.

ok here it is:

12.8 @ 110 mph

60' was 2.2 !

all 4 wheels losing traction when boost came on full, and that is only 13.8 psi! Shyt tyres but will sort that out before I wind more power into her.
