Yobbo - well, I am pleasantly surprised how it compares with new(ish) and more powerful cars. Dont worry too much about precise measuring etc, its just for general idea and reall wont matter if you can do it in 9.2 or 9.5 :}
That 0.3 means everything LOB!!

I'd love a go at this but this weekend the car will be two up and with weekend luggage :-(

Hehe, 0.3s for drag racers is probably a year of hard work on engine tune fortunately Im not one of them :P
Have a try with your C some day when empty, would be interested to see how it compares :}

had a quick go at this to get something on here but would of been much quicker from 2nd. But just started from 3rd and kept it there.

Got one from 30 and another from 40. Would need to get a proper clam for the phone if I were to shift.

Wow, thats much quicker than mine.
Now - some data please. Your is mapped aswell right? remind me please roughly what HP ?
Also, is your manual or Auto? dont see AUTO gear indication so I am thinking its MT, but then you are getting 140kmh at 5.5k RPM where I am at the redline. Its 3rd gear from start to end?

Yeh mine is mapped as well but to be honest I have no idea what extra gain I got out of it. It is a manual, so yeh if I started in 2nd at 30mph it would of been much better as 30 in 3 is literally just sitting below or on the line of where the turbo comes in.

were you in 3rd as well? my 3rd should take me up past 90mph.

Yes, my run was entirely on 3rd aswell.
The difference in gears are mad, look at mine - I start from almost 3k RPM and end up at almost 7 where you stroll from 2 to merely 5.5. I know AWD and FWD had different gearboxes (final drive to be exact, I think) but that is huge difference.
I will have to try mine with 2nd->3rd aswell but I am not sure if that will gain me anything - with my gear spacing I will be starting at probably way over 4k, then shifting... will check anyway

Your map is s1 from Shark? or better?

yeh thats quite a difference, I will try and get something better over the weekend from 2nd which would be better suited for accelerating.

But my map is just some generic one from Demon Tweaks.

Great, please do, thats an interesting stuff here.

DO you have any other power-increasing mods, like exhaust/CAI etc? I think overall you have much more HP than me as even on s1 alone you will go higher due to FL engine and more stock power. Oh, have u ever checked your reported boost pressure?

Nope I havent checked any boost pressure or anything on my car. It has a genric remap with a catback 2.5" Jetex exhaust, k&n drop in air filter into the oem airbox, 3" induction pipe, and a bell intercooler. all other things are handling mods.
