, I saw this kind of thread regarding a remapped fabia vrs and thought it would be a good idea to start one for the Octavia. Please, sensible answers, I already know it's as fast as a formula 1 car and a scud missile! Lol

Torque to weight?

Torque to weight?

torque may get it there quicker but then power would take over to make it 'as quick as' I think.

A 120d? Aren't they slower by default, let alone against a remapped CR!

so they are, just had a look! Quite suprised as I always thought they had pretty poor engines in them, but I guess they weigh nothing.

 

 

According to Parkers, the 120i M-Sport is SLOWER than the 120d M-Sport, did not realise this!

I think you got that the wrong way round, fantastic engines in a heavy car for its size.

Yep, good old monday morning. The 123d has a 200hp engine as well, I honestly only thought these were about 140/150 before I looked at them today

I always fancied a go in a 123d however they are old hat now, its a 125d with 218hp. Shame the msport is 27.5k without any options at all.

The BMW 525D has a 2 litre engine now. Its not far off as quick as the old 530d.

But sounds like a bag of spanners.

 

130i MSport are a fantastic bits of kit, 6 cylinder N/A engine with bags of character and return nearly 30mpg. Only for small kids in the back though and you will need a roof box if you need to carry more than 6 bags back from Sainsbury's
