I've had a search and not found many 1/4 mile times from Cupra owners on here.

Anyone done any 1/4 mile timing, and whats the spec of your car?
 
my best is a 14.66sec 1/4 mile that was with 200bhp and 220lbf-ft, stripped out on 17's.

Next time i'll stick the 16's on and see what difference the ko3s has made! :D
230bhp & 230lbf-ft!! :thumbup:
 
'98 2.0 16v. 45mm ITBs, custom 285deg cams, BV head, standalone ecu, 3.94 r&p etc: 190BHP ATW. Car weighs exactly 1011kg now.

Best time: 14.1 @ just over 100mph

Clio Cup....0-100 in 14 seconds........ehemm hand over mouth 'Bulls*it'.

Thats the best joke ive heard in ages.
I want whatever this guy's been smoking.........

An impreza sti will only do 0-100 in about 14 seconds.

Sounds like pub talk to me.

I must admit that is a very rapid time. Our normal 172 will do a 14.9 but that's at 90mph.

Neil82's time is not absolutely unbelieveable, though.

However, I have 230BHP+ and weigh similar to a Clio Cup and am not much quicker than a healthy old-style (1220kg) STi
 
if you've read my post on ickle ibiza's Mustang dyno power run figures...Its interesting to add to this 1/4 time thing..

I asked them given the power to weight of ickle ibiza, what they would expect it to be able to do the 1/4 in, as my best time (last year) was 13.4 with 112mph terminal.. They said....... high 11's to low 12's.... I would love that to be true but I would guess some serious sticky micky thompsons or something would be needed for that.. Seemed a tad optomistic to me.. They said good road tyres would do better than my times.. so I must just be crap at it.. :)
