Technical Grande Punto Turbo Gone

What about the rest of the gears? My car has similar figures to yours and has never, ever gone like that no matter what you do.

Did Yours As Standard Do 0-60 In 7.9-8.1 'cause That Is What Confused Me About It ??
 
those are all such different cars.

A3 2.0 TDi i have no idea about but the Civic type R, assuming its the older model is around 198bhp and a bit gutless until on vtec, i would expect your punto to be similar to it.

Audi S3, no chance in hell would you keep up with one, talking from experience as my brother owns one, £30k car with 4WD & 270bhp it is very fast, scary fast in the hands of said brother :eek:

Ry

S3 Was In Town So Yeah On A Motorway He Would More Than Likely Beat Me, Well More That Definate With Those Figures And As For The Type R They Do 60 In 6.2

It's Always Been 1-1.2/3 Seconds Faster Than It Should Be, Before The Re-Map [Suppose To Be 9.4] After The Remap Suppose To be 7-7.5 =S
 
OMG, put your handbag away who cares if your punto is faster than joe bloggs civic. This thread is irrelevant! You blew your turbo through abuse and ull pay the price! Boasting about does make you big.. Go out and get a girlfreind!

Also don't think they can't remap the A3 Tdi?
 
No, and it still wouldnt now with the remap. Im not stupid :rolleyes:



:yeahthat:

If Your 1.9 JTD Hasn't Nocked More That 1-1.5 Seconds Off Get On The Phone To Red Dot If It Wasn't Them That Did It .. He Said It Will Knock Around 2.5 Off Which Yeah I Know Would Take It To 7 .. But It Already Did It In 8, Check My Other Video On YouTube Before Re-Map

Lol Got One Mate .. Been With Her 4 Years In 2Weeks =D [Off The Subject Even More] .. And It's People Starting This, It Did Start As A Thread About My Turbo
 
I dont care what your other video says you wouldnt do it in 8 seconds dead. Just under 9 i would believe but 8 seconds standard no chance. This is getting really boring now so please just pissing leave it.

Take it to Santa Pod then. I was told nothing like that when I had mine done and I dont think they would make such claims. Book 0-60 is 9.5 secs, so 1 sec would make 8.5, which is about right.

As 1.8 Stilo said, you abused your car and you will have to pay for it. I work in the turbo industry and realise how important it is to look after these parts.
 
I think mine re-mapped at amongst the highest outputs 193.8 Bhp and 261ft lbs torque, but I would never push it as hard in such a way to damage it.....:p

I dont feel I have to prove a thing to anyone...

I Know But I Felt Stupid For Saying It Could Do 0-60 In Such A Time And That's The Proof But I Couldn't Edit It Down Without It Messing Up :(

Use the report button to get a mod to edit it for you.

I'm outa here before I get and infraction.... :bang: (n) :tosser:

Sorry Mods... :-(

Dont get infractions for opinions........unless they are different from mine;)

Don't be so stupid. It was on a rolling road. I managed 150 on the A11 in a Rover 220 Turbo the night my dad died & it would have terrified me had I not been pissed. At 150 the roundabouts come within seconds - not minutes. This guy is a troll - & not very good at it either.

:chin:that you Mike(z)

Hi T :wave: Hello & WB Mike....?
 
The GPS 130 seems to average high 8 seconds 0-60 standard...autoexpress clocked it at 8.9, that's with a passenger on board.

I reckon a decent map will take off around 1.5-2 seconds tops... I've been silly enough to try a couple of timed runs and have managed mid 7's, even with pretty crap launches... It is so hard to get the power down properly until you hit 3rd.

I reckon with a good take off I would hit 7 seconds (If I could get decent traction)

I respect my car too much to be doing anymore of those though...and I want it to last.. ;)
 
The angle the video is taken at would not give a true representation of the ACTUAL time, and spedos are 10% out, and I had a 210bhp 172cup weighing at 985kg's 220bhp/ton which oficially done 0-60 in 5.4seconds and 13.6second 1/4mile@101mph all official at santa pod. So I doubt your car very very much does 0-60 in 6 seconds. with a weight of around 1200kg at 182bhp wpuld equate to a power to weight ratio of 150ish bhp and a rough 0-60 of 7 seconds, your 0-100 is probably right at 16's though.
 
First time in a long time I've ever seen anyone so happy to admit to doing 140 on a public road and post video evidence of the speedo, stating where it was filmed on a forum frequented by more than one member of the police...:chin:
