Post by: silverariel on 01 October 2013, 11:35

Ok so i have golf mk4 TDI 4motion, 150HP, ARL engine, and i sometimes can notice that front wheel arl's are faster is it the weight or is it my car only? Here is my acceleration i guess from 10-100 KM/h

Er...remapped cars will be quicker with the same engine...but then a remapped car with a better turbo/manifold/exhaust/ etc etc etc will be faster.  Presume yours is standard?

the 150bhp is at the flywheel you will loose a few ponys through the 4wd
