i find this amusing ( not in a bad way)

but its a hot hatch...

a c4s is going to be significatly faster than your golf mate..

0-60
0-100
30-70

in fact over every measurable distance/speed.

the only time your car would keep up is if they rolled off a cliff at the same time... :laugh:
Er.... No!
I can more than belive what matey is saying mate..
Basic power /weight for a start..
C4S Cab 1500+kgs and 350bhp = 230bhp/tonne
Modded Ed30 1350kgs and 310bhp = Guess what...... 230bhp/tonne.
So funny enough, there won't be a lot in it. When speeds get north of 100-120mph, then yes the Porker will pull away. As the old saying goes "There's no replacement for displacement"  :wink:.. But general driving the Porker would struggle to go anywhere.. I for one am looking forward to suprising a few M3's, Carrera's etc with my hammer map..  :evil:

make sure it is dry

dont think even dry would make a difference...getting 310 down through the front wheels is tough.

in a straight line and already rolling, wtih good tyres and 98 ron fuel, you might, and i mean might hold the initial 4wd launch gap...for a short period of time

go round some bends and it would be good night.

loving the dub mentality though..have a friend with a 350 bhp corrado..and he's convinced it will beat a 997 turbo....

0-60 3.5 seconds.....
0-100 sub 8 seconds.... :shocked:

the corrado is real fast dont get me wrong, but you have to be realistic about things....
