Yes it can work out 0-60 0-100 60-100  and 1/4 mile drag times which should reflect near on actual road going results, but this all depends in the information we put in to the dyno laptop, weight (not hard to do)  and front drag area of the car which is a pain to work out.  (we even have a light tree like the one at santa pod..lol)
We have worked the  front drag factor out on a WRX track car but not a mk4.  I will have it worked out for the rolling road day. but I dont think we car drag start and dyno run every car on the day.

Obviously petrol car's will get priority seeing as they are performance derived. Diesels can drive around the estate for the day to see how many mile's they did to a tank of fuel, far more beneficial for there 'pub' talk ....   :smug:

So if you had an AUM with stage 2 and an AGU with stage 2 would they both be about the same or do the extra sensor's and DBW help squeeze a little more out of the AUM lump?

Bobbarley, i picked up my KO3s for £101.65 (£1.65 cash machine charge at the local esso  :angry:) so can be had for reasonable money if your patient. Seeing them go for £225 on Ebay makes me laugh!

The AUM will make more power hands down, because the ecu if far more advance on the dbw engines,  but if both where on stand alone or the both used the same ecu the AGU with the ko3s would get the best results back to back.   Like Topher said the AGU has bigger ports to allow greater flow.

Cheers for the reply Nick. Don't suppose an ECU upgrade is a viable option though is it, woould be easier just to stick a big turbo or similar on?


Cheers, Sam

M3.8 to Me7.5 would be a huge task to carry out.  If you have the money to spend the best option for the non bdw engine is the Omex ecu systems.  Not cheap but well worth it.
