What 1/4 mile time at the Pod?
« on: 29 September 2012, 21:20 »
Well the Golf .:R will be stage 2+ by midweek and I will be taking her to Santa Pod for a few runs down the strip on the 14th October and was wondering what time I'd get and thought we could have a bit of fun with the times beforehand. Mods are below....

Revo Stage 2+
Evoms intake
Autotech HPFP
RS4 valve
Milltek full TBE
DSG stage 2 map
Haldex race controller
May have an upgrade FMIC on if it arrives on time.

I will be full weight including the spare and the tyres are Dunlop Sport Maxx's at 235/35/19 on Talladega's(Heavy!)

I did a 12.6, with remap and intake, I think you should add some high 11's in hurdy ;)
 I ran that 12.6 with everything in the car an unprep'd track and a full tank of fuel.

You should hit an 11.9 all day:

Can I ask what happening there On the 14th? I fancy a trip there again

It is the season closer show - GTI Festival. There should be plenty of VAG action and a fair amount of traders. I'll be on the UKMKIV's stand between runs.  :cool:

Oh and I doubt I'd get an 11.9 or lower, but it would be great if I could at some point. :smiley:

I guess a stage 2+ with these mods would be anywhere between 325 bhp and 380bhp depending on the dyno it runs on.

I went with a forge twintercooler. They make 2 variations, one for the Euro cars and one for the cars in the USA. The car is ok for the stage 2+ as it has the S3 cooler but recovery will be slower than I'd like.

Yup , can do. I will be leaving to get there early as I am on a clubstand - also need to make the most of my track time to get those times down.  :wink:

Well, some varied answers in the poll looks like the main ones are 12.2 and 12.7, with one at each end of the times. Keep those votes coming and let me know why you think I'll get the times you voted for. :smiley:
