i dont get it
:lol:we arent talking about 1/4 times again are we? straight line is for gays, lets see how much faster my car would be around a proper track, i bet it would be more than 0.3 secs boi
anyway 0.3 secs might not seem like a lot but in drag racing its a lot
only me and you know how much my car was pulling past yours down the strip gadge, even after you got the jump 
:lol:
ask any racer, any real racer, it doesnt matter if you win by an inch or a mile, winnings winning.

Hahaha wezz it wasn't pulling 70bhp more though was it boss

probably cos yours was low for whatever reason - come off it you actually think a vvl lump like wezz's wouldn't be 211? or 170whp? there's countless US ve's makin miles more.
i love how you go figures are pub talk and then still whinge about other peoples and get into this :lol:
aww bless, baby ask any racer, any real racer, it doesnt matter if you win by an inch or a mile, winnings winning.
You just quoted Fast and the Furious!!
@CraiGti I'd expect you'd make 170 with just VVL head on standard Gti block with a proper remap.
Yours an N1 head isn't it?
i dont believe for one minute joes car is 140ish bhp or whatever it got, its an anomoly that no one has explained yet.
wezz's power would be about right i reckon, yours isnt a million miles off on a 1/4 mile because its not a million miles off wezz's power imo, i think your going to be dissapointed with the next engine because i dont beleive your actually down on power like you think.

nah, not n1 - sr16ve head, 12.5:1 ve pistons, balanced crank, acl bearings, 2.5" system, pulleys, bolt ons etc etc

Nice, well best of luck with build
hi lads, so..........
im thinking of getting a custom exhaust system on my gti. What manifolds do 2.5" diameter? also do you ask for 2.5" carried all the way through with decat?
I wondered what the best diameter is please?

The new style SSAC/XS power ones are 2.5" downpipe, just get hold of a 2.5"/3" decat pipe, then get a 2.5" system made up that bolts up to the standard cat so you can swap it at mot time
I had 2.25" cat back, standard cat and 2.5" downpipe/421 manifold and it was alright. A lot of people say a 2.5" system is a good all rounder though.
Also remember to ask if it is mandrel or crush bent, a 2.5" crush bent is kind of equivalent to 2.25" mandrel bent.

so i want mandrel bent yeah?
Depends how much you want to spend. Some people argue that crush bent is fine for most light N/A applications and the back pressure helps, of course SR20s do love big exhausts but how much low down power do you want to sacrifice? Personally I'd go 2.5" crush bent, with stainless steel flanges.
