6 seconds and 1 tenth (could take away the 1 tenth to make up for possible button pressing delay :P)

It seems about 6.1secs

Timed it 4 times and got

6.1
6.0
6.3
6.1

I think its a bit faster now than the standard

Hope your enjoying yourself, I'm happy with standard power at the moment still think its great the surge of power and overtaking is effortless these days.

:lol:

Regardless I'm envious...being stuck with about 10 seconds, but hey the 1.4 isn't that bad, I'm still overtaking M3's and Ferraris - it's just that they're not trying.

yeah iv managed approximately 5.6 - 5.8 with the milltek and green filter in place as well as the map, its suprising the milltek makes again after the map, its like another semi remap

very effective, but also pricy, but i love it, and would not be without it

im not taking it further with power now, its rapid as it is, just doing very minor subtle changes now

well iv removed my xenons if your interested, and iv got pre cut rear caps for the lights too so you dont need to cut yours up, iv also got the split headlight fitting rings so you dont need to cut yours up to get the wires through without cutting them

they are 5000k h7 hids ultimate conversion kit with new bulbs (1 week old) new ballasts and starters (month old) so its basically a new problem free kit

pm me if your interested

0-60mph in about 7,5s. (measured with g-tech), i should be able to lose a few tenths though

Damn Jeff_GTI, 5,8s, wtf :shock: How did you measure this ?

5.6 is seriously fast with FWD car.
what tires do you run?

i measured it also with a Gtech meter several times,
most of the time i got 6.8 - 6.7sec.
car is 100% stock.
so i guess its not bad.
don't have many km's on the clock so in time it will be better i'm sure :P :twisted:

if you drive a stock car it's possible tot run 14.9 on
1/4 mile.
but to reach a 13.9sec (wich is verry fast) the polo must have 200Bhp or more (chiptuning...?)
because a stock Polo GTI is not capable of reaching that time :wink:

i run the std dunlop sp sport maxx tyres fella

remember the 1.2 seconds difference between your stock time and my run is a lot to make up, but providing you get a good launch, it is achievable,

also, take in to consideration my car is only a bugs dick off 220 bhp and 328 nm torques so the increase on standard power is about 48 % up so that has some what a big input too

i cant stress enough how much difference the milltek turbo back systems made, makes its performance feel raw and not tamed, yet noise output still a low note and smooth

with cut slicks in the righ dry day i bet 5.5's woutl be achievable all day long

i don't say it's not possible or so, that this won't be a misunderstanding... :wink:

just wanted to know if it was on slicks, but it's not,
you drive the same dunlop tyres as me :wink:
i wanted to know this because sooner or later i'll be driving a 230Hp polo to and i always wander out what 0-60 time's i could reach with that spec...
so now i have something to look forward to, i'll try and beat you're time :P :P :twisted:

on slick tires you schould be a bit faster so maybe...5.5...? let's hope so :P :lol:
