How fast (really) is a remapped ED30?

rob you have a gift, your cars always look mint

I cant confirm times as i havent timed my car but To anyone thinking of mapping the Ed30 i would do it, they are plenty fast standard even more so tweaked.I will embarass some expensive machinery.What i do like is the diversity of my car.Friday my car was on the shopping run, sunday  1/4 mile day, monday ferrying the family and luggage down to centre parcs for a holiday returning good mpg and at the same time being a track tool too, check some of the other guys - Neilm for example he looks to partial to a trackday or two.I would be amazed to see a ed30 get into 12's on a 1/4 mile though

Couldn't of put it better myself mate..
As for the 12's, I would of said the same before I ran my 13.2. But now with stage 2 (and if necessary remove a back chairs ), I don't think it'll be out of the question really..
Whether it does it on 4mm of tread is another thing though.. 
Have you ran yours again Keith? How did you get on?

I could only manage 14.5 last sunday, this is more due to me than the car :embarassed: If i get a good start then i mess up in the gear change, or if i get a bad start then i have a good gear change etc.. for instance the 14.5 time had a R/T of 1.1 but i still manged to cross the line doing 103mph and beat the Focus RS that had a way better start than me by 10mph.I reckon with a decent start i could get into the 13's.this is the car fully set up no seats or spare wheels removed lol.I do need a better exhaust though and a heat shield for the dbilas.

Al down to practise bud.. There is definately room for a lot of improvement there mate.. You should be running at least mid 13's (like Al).. Need to get myself up to Crail one day me thinks..

[k4ith]

13.6

To be fair though, the car had new tyres on, and the biggest difference was the 60 foot times for me with 0.2 seconds off. As quick as I may be able to change gears, I aint as fast as DSG, although I do believe if I did strip the car, 13.4 is do-able.

Remember when they tested a DSG and non DSG car that 0.4 secs was the gap between the cars on the quarter mile.

Still a awesome time mate..
Was at Pod today and wasn't going to run as tyres are shot, but couldn't resist in the end... 
Should've saved my £20 (although fun), as couldn't better 13.4 today but my terminals improved slightly even though it was fairly bloody warm and runs were ruined by sh!te traction...
Will certainly be back though... 

[Ryan_s3]

alright ben saw you at pod today ,my old evo did a 13.2 at 106.5mph as i wasn't willing to destroy the clutch to get a 12 
Still was impressed with your car ,what was your 60ft time on the 13.4 and your best of 13.2?

[Vtec Abuser]

Now then mate.. Which Evo were you in? As I went down with a load of Evo lads yesterday...
60ft's were 2.4's mainly and have done a 2.1 before.. Fooked up a couple of my runs too (especially when double clicking on the paddle and going straight to 3rd from 1st   :embarassed:, that was on the 13.4 run too  ).. Was a gorgeous day though..
