i thought i would do this as someone asked about it, this was done very early this morning as i had to take my parents to the airport as there going thailand (envy them so much!!!!)

not the best take off, but just shy of 6 seconds it seems as i drop the clutch just after it goes from 6 to 5 seconds on the video :yes: and the tyres arent the best make in the world or have alot of grip left on the front :no:

enjoy :D

Sounds wicked, notice the fuel was low too, so a very good time to try it.

Have you noticed any additional performance since moving the Air intake to new location?

it does seem better now yes, as before it kind of "bogged down" if you know what i mean, it feels a little sharper now, and its loads cooler, i can go out and give it a good wellying and the pipe isnt even hot half way down like it was before, i will be replacing the back section soon too then heat wrapping the whole thing for that extra bit :yes:

and theres nothing wrong with a bit of drum and bass :yes:

Just noticed Evo Magazine measured the standard 2.0 TSI 0-60 time at 6.2 Seconds so it appears in the right conditions the stock car is a lot quicker than VW give it credit.

Evo quote 8 seconds dead for the Stock 1.4 TSI, think this is as per VW's claim.

I would expect the 1.4 to be quicker than 8 seconds, Evo may have been lazy and just stuck in the VW time.
