if they are so evenly matched why will a lupo gti struggle to get into 15 sec 1/4 miles (best ive seen a loop gti do is a 16.0) when a 106 gti will do mid-low 15s all day long?? 1/4 mile is a fantastic example of a 0-90 type situation ignore all the manufacturers figures, and get down the pod what you want, is a polo 16v, much faster than either style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />

o right, my car is broken then

haha nope, is nothing to do with that The front left gets the most abuse round roundabouts, and always takes the abuse in hard launching, hard left hand cornering left side driveshaft is shorter, so that wheel is the one that always spins up in said conditions

Left one always goes about 1k before the right dammit!

Have you tried different length trumpets? or is there no room? would good to see what it would do with the longest possible set you can fit in (unless thats them already)

Nah, Polo ARC is throttle by wire have one in my garage style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shades:" border="0" alt="shades.gif" />

ARC is also Drive by wire style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shades:" border="0" alt="shades.gif" />

ah do they? sorry, i was going on what mine gives just assumed GTI lupo would do similar

is amazing how the cams totally kill the torque levels, 1600 16v can produce 130 lb.ft am hoping new cams will not destroy this

There is Also ARC engine code bet the heads are all the same, they are the same part from the other 16v's too

well no, it did a 16.6 when it was stock, so its only lost a second

Went to SantaPod with james at the weekend was good for getting lots of runs, he got a best of 15.6! In a stock engined sport not sure he got the slip for it, but has a few 15.7 slips and the "magic accelerating polo" got a 15.5, reasnobly happy with that

£4 a lb is i think the normal going rate some are cheaper

and a big supply of extra engine parts just down the road at my house bruce style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shades:" border="0" alt="shades.gif" />

ok, might take you up on that at the pod mate! and no i havnt supercharged it, why the hell would i do that! N/A ALL the way

hahahah I could come, any idea of how busy it will be? Im not what i would call stock spec anymore though, so it wouldnt prove anything, i might see if i can pop along though, if im not helping mate with engines

where are you getting this weight advantage for the lupo? according to car pages the lupos kerb weight is 1015Kg? wheras the polos is 1025 so not exactly any difference there and im really not sure what more proof there is than a few timing slips, as for the cars stock-ness, a set of coilovers and a back box arnt exactly going to make much of a difference!

tbh, i would spend the £110 and get a 4branch, and then ditch the cat at the same time

why would you believe this to be the case? can you not handle the truth? i was always under the impression that santa pod timing gear is pretty damn accurate? i have a few other slips with 15s on so even if the timing gear was out for that run, youd think it would be ok for the others? im not sure why i would lie about the car being stock either so, because im saying this, i guess that makes me an idiot?

Do you seriosly believe that the slip is made up? if you do then you really are an idiot

whats this compressor? is it something VW give you instead of a spare wheel? is it just a can of tyre sealer/inflator?

dear me, not another person bullshitting about there 1/4 times, you have a car that can magically get from 70mph to 87 too! mine has a hyperspace button to ahieve this, assuming yours has the same? LOL some people ey! 87.77 Terminal, that shows good potential! thats GOT to drop into the 15s with a decent start i reckon Im aiming for mid to low 15s this year, (just going to fit bigger hyperspace button/ magic wand)

LMAO

ah yes, im an idiot, im speaking crap again silly me border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" alt="IPB Image" /> sounds like similar ratios to the polos box' then you on 195/45/15's?

What gearbox code does the loop sport run? as a stock 100hp polo can do a 15.9 so maybe with the same gearbox you could do better?
