Im not overly interested on 0-100kmh performance, but would be really keen to compare your 60kmh (40MPH) "floor it" test. Any gear you want (AT with kickdown or with forced gear) on flat surface, keep steady 60 kmh/37MPH and floor it until lets say 85MPH/140kmh so a bit over highway speed to simulate real life highway traffic merging or overtaking. If anyone fancy to do it and share result or maybe have done it already - would gladly use the data for comparison. I did a very quick test recently when investigating some issues and I clocked it at 9.5 seconds. I wonder how my boost leak is affecting it, and also what gears are best to do so. Also- really interested in comparing that to D5. anyone? you know, for science __________________ 2005 V50 T5AWD M66, Stage1 Hilton tune E-focus torque mount, E46 bi-xenon retrofit v2 , (also available in PDF form), DTSC fully-off mod, Brembo discs+ATE ceramic pads
