Cupra 280 Dyno Figures

[RabRS]

Anyone else near you with a 280? I'm a bit far...........

Yes, we need to do a back to back test. With someone.

Did you get a graph of the AFR ?

yep, headlights are misting up just like that. It is common and not just to Seat - I'm told by a friend in the trade that its a common thing with LED lights.

I've noticed that there are very few 265s around - none when I searched ebay motors, or the local dealer used network. I'm pretty sure mine has the specified number of horses under its bonnet, it's significantly quicker than my vRS which was around 250/400Nm

Where are you?

 

[Stever750]

I've only ever seen this vid, which implies that the standard car puts out 297PS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmiJq_UJxJ8

Looks like that would be a handful in the wet. If I get mine remapped, this is precisely what I do not want the curves to look like.

when filling up when its in the red how many litres do you get in? its possible the fuel sensor is out of alignment. When filling my car up (184fr) i get in around 44L out of 50 max.

Last full tank cost me £59, at £1.22 a litre. What's that? 48 litres?

What you running it on, 95 or 98 octane?

On REVO's hub dyno my car made 269 (At the Hub not Fly)

On a local MAHA it made 234 at the wheels, 292 at the fly, 318 corrected.

The car was stock apart from VWR intake and 99ron fuel.

I have seen graphs of two other cars up north both making 300+

 

[RabRS]

Momentum 99. Regular unleaded is £1.16 up here!

My wheel power was much less than yours, 220.

 

[AndrewJB]

Firstly I would take it to another RR! it is possible for RR's to underread, but you did mention that Golf R's have been seeing 300+

Could be possible that factory fitted a 265 ecu you your car by accident or its got a leak somewhere.

 

[kazand]

Sorry I meant 99. Going on what AJB says, it looks like you do have an issue.a second, different RR would give ( if it reads the same) you more evidence to take to Seat.

Anyone else getting this?

I was told that the misted up front lights are normal as now they are not sealed units so will mist but when they are on the mist should go which they do on mine

Regarding range, I filled up in Camberley the other day, drove to my mum's house in Windsor and then home. I then went to Tesco in Trowbridge last night and still have 270 miles range showing on the DIS. I reckon those trips add up to around 130 miles or so.

 

[Stever750]

400 miles in a cupra 280? That's going some!

 

[golf gti dude]

I so want a 280 cupra

One of the things I like about the car is its frugality on a long run. I wasn't hanging around in places either, including a wee tussle with a mk1 Leon that was rather nippy!

That's about 36mpg then, pretty good over that distance.

 

[jcbmally]

I'm not convinced tbh.

Just take the wife's car to another dealer, bulls**t about wanting a 280 and go from there. You will defo notice an extra 20-25 horses no probs if yours is around 260ish.
You can always try Consumers Direct if your argument is sound.
