0-60 in mapped 150 Leon...

[glynnd]

and who is 'them'!!

You are the partner in crime to the claim!
I happen to think my car goes pretty ok considering everything.
However there are lots of us that have had a remap on a130/150 and nobody else has piped up to say hang on strugers and co are correct because mine does it too!
But as stated earlier I cannot get close to 6.8 let alone 5.8 and possibly a bit quicker at the pod. You either need to get some or tell us what mods you have really had done if any!

This hasn't ended in the Scrap Yard yet! I'm surprised....

Ibiza Tdi Weight 1177 kg
Fabia Weight 1315 kg
Leon Weight 1333 kg

Does anyone else have trouble believing that a Leon Tdi is only 18kg heavier than a Fabia and that an Ibiza Cupra Tdi is 138kg lighter than the Fabia and the Leon?

What the hell is missing from the Ibiza ( apart from sound proofing) and what the hell did they burden the Fabia with to make it almost as heavy as a Leon!

 

[Nathanio]

Depends on the engine Pat. I know the vRS is heavier than a 100BHP Fabia for some unbeknown reason. Might be a combination of

From Wisebuyers:

Ibiza FR TDI 130 07 - Unladen weight 1180
Leon TDI Cupra 05 - Unladen weight 1308
Fabia vRS 04 - Unladen weight 1315

Not quite sure why there is a massive difference! Might be that the Ibiza is 3 door versus 5 door? Heavier interior?

You can feel the lump over the front axle when you accelerate out of corners in the furby as it sling shots you round Liz hates me doing it and I love it

Mine came in at 1050KG's give or take the off KG and I have since taken out all my I.C.E

Target weight of 1ton and 260+bhp I like the sound of that power to weight ratio!

 

[UncleFester]

I still can't work out why there is so little difference between a Fabia and a Leon!

And you have an extra 20 horses

Its easy...

3 Door Ibiza
5 Door Fabia
5 Door Leon

I'd say its your doors

Also lack of sound deadening and cheap thin plastic might get it!

Different car like but...

I had a 106 Gti with 163 bhp and 137 lb/ft.

0-60 was timed at 6.4 and i did a 1/4 mile at santa pod in 14.523 @ 94.8 MPH.

and that weighed around 920 kg.

I find it totally rediculous that someone can claim and believe they are capable of 5.8 to 60 then do a 1/4 mile of 15.2, shouldnt the 106 get a quicker 0-60 then the torque of the ibiza pull the 106 in?

Your stats are laughable i'm afraid...

5 Door Bezza FR - Unladen weight 1205

5 Door Fabia

Right so if you want to belt down the track ... just remove all 4 doors before your run! I wonder if you could get carbon rear door inserts ......

We all know 3 doors are faster

After all, 5 doors are for family cars

I got 5.44s at Brunters last year, but then maybe thats why I am picking up the car from the dealers today with a new clutch and flywheel in it at 12.6k miles. Notice how they put 0-6mph instead of 0-60mph. Car was full of camping gear and I over held 3rd gear hence over 14s for the standing 1/4.

 

[Nathanio]

What specs you running Coxw?

[jonjay]

I think unless you got a diff and some serious mods your going to be hard pressed especially on a diesel and the way the gearing is to get a sub 6.5-7s time.

To get 6.5 in a tuned derv Leon your going to need a Diff, engine mounts, strong clutch and a talented driver to properly launch the car and get as much of the power down as possible.

Since Slick has got himself engine mounts, the way the car can be launched is incredible but even then no way sub 6.5.

 

[glynnd]

I think its right to say the sensible people on here know that strugers and co are in cuckoo land with their claim (dont mean to offend with that statement) so is it best to let this one go now?

And the power would be?....

 

[warren_cox]

And the power would be?....

about 306 on (6/6)
about 316 on (9/7)

new fuel pump and exhaust should see 330+

its very difficult to get an accurate representation on quattro / haldex / 4wd cars so i am always very reluctant to quote figures.
