The vRS is actually quite fast!

[Svedenblad]

Have had my black vRS estate (or combi as we say here in scandinavia) for about 6 months now, and still like it alot!

 

Got a piece of empty road (well almost empty) and tried to put the accelerator to the floor for as long as i dared. All I can say is that this car moves quite fast for an "cheap" estate chunk of metal.

[Svedenblad]

Yes it's the TSI DSG, works quite good actually

Now put a remap on it and just hold on       

 

Great engine in stock mode and mapped mode  :clap:  :clap:

As i usually have the backseat loaded with my pesky children the stock car is more than i actually need, so i will keep it that way atleast for now.

Can the dsg hit 60mph in 2nd?

Unseasonably warm in Sweden today was it?

Change up from 2nd to 3rd occurs at ~57mph within Sport mode. However, with DSG there is virtually no loss of momentum when jumping between cogs, and there is no real point in revving beyond 5750rpm because the torque curve is heading steeply downhill by then.

Recorded in october, 200km/h now would be suicide
