Just out of boredom ive got thinking in a remapped fabia vrs 170bhp 295lbs ft torque what do you reckon the 0-60 time is??

Edited 12 December, 200916 yr by adamg30

the standard time is 8.5seconds, id say about 7 - 7.5seconds

Standard time is about 9.5 seconds isn't it? So I would say remapped stock would be about 7.5 seconds with a good technique. Mines nowhere near stock, and I've yet to get better than 6.3 to 60.

If you are interested in 0-60 times why do you have eyes on a deezil? I would say to actual 60, not indicated best part of 8 seconds. The vRS is all about mid range preformance.

If you want good 0-60 times, your better off going for the 2.0.

These will see off a Mustang no problem.

lol

It spins away most of the power when you launch of the line anyway...

The 'standard' time quoted in magazines etc. is measured with two 85kg-ish adults in the car. You can knock about a second off that if you ditch the passenger. I'd say with that much extra power you're probably looking at about 7.5-8.0 seconds. The biggest problem with getting good 0-60 times in the Furby is the short second gear which means you need 3rd to hit 60mph (certainly on mine) so you have two gearshifts which makes for a longer than necessary 0-60 time.

i can get just under 7 secs im my remapped furby with 340 torque. thats with a gtec performance meter

i did a 6.5 at york raceway on timing gear,that was with 176bhp/346 ft lbs

And no back seats, right?

Best I got with my standard vRS (154bhp 290lbs/ft Trq) was 8.4 seconds timed using GPS gear, with just me in the car, managed a 6.2 in the 'Teg so far :-)

I'm sorry but did you just type 290 lb/ft standard?! ouch!

This is where the magic of 2nd gear starts come into play. If you can get a decent launch off the line in 2nd then you only need one gear change to achieve 60 and you will shave time off your best 0-60.

Best figure i've got recorded from the skip is 5.85secs. According to Gary (oilburninut) it ran quicker than that on that day with shifty behind the wheel.

No, no! They were just laid flat...

Standard time is about 9.5 seconds isn't it?

9.37 Rubbish take off too

Yup, 290. Car was bought new from Skoda and rolling roaded with about 5k miles I think, the 1st te anywhoo. With it having a warrenty I didn't care whether the clutch went or not (Which, surprisingly, it didn't).

Anyway don't have it now, on to some other chap :-)

I've managed 3.2 seconds 0 to 60, but then again that was in a Westfield with a 2.0 Pinto lump
