Yep have a guess.

its a manual conversioned UK TT from '93.

Det Sensor is By Passed and i have now got a Apexi Filter on it.

 

come on have a guess

3456??? Am I close?

230 at the wheels

280 at the fly

What 0-60 times are you getting now?

237.9 @ the wheels :D

if its running correctly now then (223hp @ wheels) (or 274hp @ fly) is my crazy guess

232 @ wheels

 

are you having it dyno'ed?? i wanna win a prize if im closest!

280 at the fly

What 0-60 times are you getting now?

 

 

about 6.3 i'd say.

realistically though how fast should it be as its pretty much standard like

232 @ wheels

 

are you having it dyno'ed?? i wanna win a prize if im closest!

 

Do you know any dyno places near to sunderland??

you need to buy a G Tech off us bud :D

I dont know Bird but mine is pretty standard. I have the LWB with stainless steel exhaust with megaphone pipes and the apexi filter and mine is about the same time as yours. Anyone who knows how fast they should be 0-60 please pipe in.

Twin Turbo (Euro and Jap)

280 bhp - 300bhp

283 Ib/ft

0-60 : 5.5 secs

0-100 : 14.5 secs

1/4 Mile : 13.8 - 14.2 secs

Top speed : 170 mph + (Uk restricted to 155mph and Jap to 112mph)

 

Although, Car and Driver in 1992 got the following figures from a Manual SWB TT :

0-60 mph: 5.0 sec.

0-100: 13.1 sec.

Quarter Mile Time: 13.7 sec.

Even 15 years on. Dont cars loose hp over time. I thought I saw a Top Gear about this.

Does anyone actually have their standard car this fast though?

what is a G Tech mate?

Fifth Gear had a show with a E30 M3 and an Integrale. I think they were both about 25% down on the power they made when they were new.

and the 'supercar' challenge ;)

Dont see why not. They are just guides. Every car is different, every driver has different abilities and all depends on conditions.

 

Car would of lost some power over the years (only seen one stock zed dynoed, and that was Gio, who got 284bhp @ fly with a mongoose exhaust), but tyre technlogy has moved on offering greater levels of grip.

 

Quite a few owners have posted 0-60mph times under 5secs, with just basic mods(exhaust, filter, 1bar boost).

 

Its all approximate, but a 0-60mph time is'nt a true indication of performance anyway.

Oh i know that but would like to know these things :dance:

who cares it aint as fast as mine :tongue:

who cares it aint as fast as mine yet :tongue:

 

It will be soon enough, especially if you decide to break it, Becides the only thing you have on there (at the moment) that i don't is an exaust (i think) so i would watch out for the Bird flying straight past lol :tongue:

an exhaust a decatt, a lightened and balanced flywheel and a rps street clutch

 

soon to be added is a chip and boost controller, you will soon be chuffing on the smoke from my blown turbos lol

Good evening STATO........... :duffer:

:shock: the clutch wouldn't make a difference, decatt, ill get one soon enough, god knows when/if i'll do the lightened and balanced flywheel like.

Chip, dont have one yet and boost controller will come my way too :)

 

its cool though, you'll still be wheel spinning through third while im pulling away man :tongue:

Cars do lose BHP as the engine wears out....

 

.....so if it has been looked after all its life with regular oil changes and never thrashed each and every day, then there's no reason why a 70k miler should have much less BHP than it did from the factory when new.

 

Each and every car is different - and regarding the "Top Gear" supercars, they were all bargain buys. Tremendously underpriced examples of rubbish near the end of their useful lives. Buy a top priced, nurtured example and the results would be different......(Except for the Italian cars - they are all crappily made :tongue: )
