right, i was on my way to Leeds centre a bit back from the dentist (had a gold tooth fitted :huh:) i was on a dual carrage way coming into the city in the MK 4 GTTDI 150 when some fit bird in a audi 2.0T A4 decided to try and race me, i just let her go, but when we came to a roundabout she had hung on, im guessing waiting for me :grin:, anyhow i was in second gear round the round about, we both dropped the foot as we moved on the the dual carrageway, the golf left the audi (after a brief moment of been side by side), i was pretty suprised, what bhp are the 2.0T Audi's??, the golf was deffothe much stronger of the two...
-
Think they're about 200BHP. Suprised you left it in a mk4 TDI, but you Golf's always suprise you. What's quicker your mk3 GTi, or the mk4TDI?

the mk 4 is faster than the mk 3, although the mk 3 can be left in gears alot lower down in the rev range where as the GTTDI can catch u off boost if your not carefull
My mk3 is have a 20vt transplanted and then remapped at some point soon tho
-
I'd say the mk4 feels a lot quicker!
Anyway it was a bird driving the audi... that says it all :laugh:
-
she was giving it some....and enjoyin it but yeah guess so, the TDI's are really powerfull things tho
-
Ah fair play to her! But yea they are.. Had a go in my mates a few months ago and was very surprised with how well it went tbh!
-
DERV FTW :grin: :grin: :grin:
-
It's all about torque and mid-range grunt in the TDi's That things got 235 lb ft of torque ffs! :cool:
-
The tdi will have loads of low down grunt, but in a drag race the 2.0T should win.
-
The figures for a remapped PD150 is fantastic! I really want one :D
-
A remapped tdi would be a different matter, but then so would be a remapped 2.0T :laugh:
-
Obvious problem, it was a woman driving the Audi :laugh:
-
^^^^^^yeah guess so, but not hard to boot it in a straight line??, still not impressed by the audi, just goes to show unless you mod the 2.0t lumps etc they aint much cop!
deffo gonna have to remap the 20vt engine once i get one in the mk 3, worrying that the tdi found it soooo easy, just to clarify, the stretch of road was around 200 meters long and dual lasted this long so it wasnt a really short run, the only saving grace for the audi is it was a woman driver, i really do hope this is why.... :undecided: :undecided:
-
I'll race your golf in my audi :laugh:
-
that big thing...ok yeah hahaha, (a very cool car that is u have btw) but ill drive my swift GTI instead, 160 horses of 1.3 twin cam power :evil:
-
When are you guna stick a 1.8t lump in your mk3 then Kells?!
I'm considering doing the same thing but unsure atm!
-
still not impressed by the audi, just goes to show unless you mod the 2.0t lumps etc they aint much cop!
true, 200ps, 0-60 in mid 6's, very poor. :grin:

-
yeah was deffo pathetic if those are supposed to be the figures for the car in question

dam....dont say that she was very fit...right up my street :tongue:
-
unlucky lol
-
wonder if she wil be driving down the same road at the same time next week... :grin:
-
That 2.0T you talk about is the same thing us MK5 owners have under out bonnet :) 197bhp 207lb ft as standard. Does the job :)
Was it badged as 2.0T as there is a 2.0 SE model.
-
it was badges as a 2.0T and had 2 x exhaust outlets, was a black saloon A4 qith 17 inch rims, black and as said before a very sexy dark haired female driving and looked to be loving it haha
my tdi is a 150, took my mate at the dealer for a lift in it and he thought it had been remapped? but i aint remapped it.. is it deffo 197bhp and not just 158bhp, someone told me it could be that, and if it was it would explain why the Tdi left it, im not trying to say the tdi is a faster car, it dont bother me akll that it was just a real shock, and seen as im dropping a 20vt in the mk 3 it was a little worrying
-
the 2.0T engine in the A4 is the same as the MK5 GTI as mentioned before is 200bhp. There is no 158bhp variant of the 2.0T. No idea what the torque is on your derv.
I would seriously be doubting this womans abilities by the way lol
-

236lbs ft torque
