2650 pounds, 180 hp = 15.047. Fairly accurate.
I haven't done a 1/4 mile myself, but Motor Magazine tested a Fabia RS at 14.97 during its Bang For Your Buck issue.

No where near it ...
Says 12.9 . The hundred odd 11.8 second slips say otherwise ;)

Interesting so many say its on the low side when i think its on the high side.
Its only going on power to weight, so many other factors... driver,weather,setup,road,luck.. http://vexer.com/automotive-tools/1-...MPH-calculator http://www.quartermilecalc.com/ |

It just doesn't factor in the huge torque spread from a turbo car.
Seems to be about 4-5 tenths out for a few.

they take way too much into account for the shift. every shift @ 2/10ths, found it works best if u just put in 1 shift, instead of say 3 or 4.

It's not the gear ratio that makes it short is what i'm trying to say, it's the converter size.If i was able to upload some pic's i'd show you some dyno comparisons that show it.A while ago I made up a extra modified GMHv6 converter to fit the Btr trans for a BA fitted and Tested at Heinrich performance and tuning in one of his cars. it come on eariler with extra 20kw right through the rev range but with slower top end speed.T4ME has the first stock stall Super Charged Torque Converter of mine in his BA and has improved his track times considerably,,as well as giving a bit better fuel economy around town!VStrong Super Charged Torque Converters (TM)
