Torque on new Ibiza?

[joonspoon]

Hi folks.

I may have missed something here.
Just read the short review in this link.

Am curious to know if the torque figure quoted (310 lb/ft) is what the new FR runs at or is the figure optimistic?
I've got 275 after a remap and 310 seems a bit high particularly with 130bhp.
I'm also thinking that the clutch has had a serious upgrade since I bought my car!

Regards Guy.

article does say lb tho, typo maybe lol, altho remappped dervs make 300lbs easy

Typo, they're 310nm standard which is 229lb ft

310 Nm!

So I'm guessing a typo.
If I've worked it out correctly that's 225 lb/ft yes?

Guy.

Note posts 3 & 4 were not there when I started typing! I'll go with 229.

Roughly, handbook says 229lb ft

fun idea tho but yes it would need a clutch upgrade and a few other thing modded, ie a half decent TCS wouldn't be a bad addition
