Need an ID-ten-T form
A Focus ST weighs 1317kg, not 1850kg.
Looked at Total Mass and not jerb weight
Still ST doesn't weight 1317kg its 1392kg on a 3 door or 1437kg on a 5 door.

TDi have more torque but less BHP but I think the peak torque and rpm are low down the rev range, therfore achieving there max sooner than a petrol.
So when a TDi has reached it maximum output a petrol could be 2/3 thirds of the way to its max power, then the desiel will require a gear change to restart the power band while the petrol can keep going until it reaches it max power, this is why TDi's have a lower rev range compared to a petrol.
Thats how I see it.
Probably wrong.
Would be better if I had a graph.

So basically, the petrol is slower due to the diesel having the torque early on, unlike the petrol, meaning it will get to 60 quicker, on a remap that is. I no standard they are 0.3 or something slower. which is nothing really. that comes onto the drivers expertise.
and if anybody wants to reduce the weight of there cars at all i know a company that will make anything out of carbon fibre, all your bumpers bonnets,boot, wings even doors and wheels, so if you guys want to reduce the weight for better power to weight let me know and i will find out prices

petrol vs tdi tdi has more torque yes thats pulling ability. but because its got more than the petrol dosent mean it will be quicker. the wahy the tdi works is they usually have a really long stroke more than the petrols. petrols usually have less of a stroke and more bore giving better bhp. think of it in the way a runner with short fast steps compaird to runner with long powerfull strides. both have advantages dont they.
yeah they do but coming onto a motorway down a slip road i would think the tdi would be ahead until the petrol got to about 80ish then it would reel a tdi in
depends on the comparison
in gear acceleration or through the gears???
80ish along side a cupra R in a 130 standard ibiza, 6th gear ibiza pulled to 110 before the leon started to get away. then i was history!!!!
My audi topped out at 137 without remap. not had chance to get off road and see what difference the chip makes. certainly more responsive
