1.9 TDI 110 SE tuned to FR 150bhp VS 145bhp 2.2 SRI ASTRA HATCH

off the lights i think will be hard cos of the mass of torque produced by deisel engines.
yes the leon has traction control. but the wheels are still pushed at a considerably hi rate.

and round corners the leon has sport suspension so it will grip well. and stick round corners.

but does any one know wat an astra 2.2 16v sri is like in comparison to my leon?

IMHO the Astra won win depending on drivers abilities/ passengers in car / how much fuel?

the 0-60 cant be right cos it was 10.5 secs with 110 bhp so with 40 more bhp and no extra kg's (AT THE MO). it will be alot quicker. thats and extra 44% of power. i was told the FR CUPRA 1.9 TDI 150 does 0-60 from 7.7 to 8.3 sec depending on driver.

Im just going on the weigh/power...

the FR150 book time is 8.6 secs to 60mph...

What makes yours a 150? apart from a remap?

has it got the 150 turbo?
 

chrisspayne

Guest
no it aint got the turbo. cos after driving a cupra 150. i found the turbo lag was realy bad.

its had mods on the ecu. the valves the filtration system and the injectors.
i am also gonna add an exaust system wich helps releases the gasses trying to get out. get out quicker

I have next to no lag - you learn to compensate (i.e. make sure the revs will be above 1.8k when you change gear).

You should have got the FR & spent £300 on getting it tuned to 200bhp !!!

in all honesty the 2.2 vauxhall isnt slow, my leon when totally standard didnt make or lose any ground in several motorway runs against some unknown fella, which I assume was standard as theres not an awful lot you can do to the 2.2's.

i would win :p

to be honest a leon 110 remap vs a astra coupe would not be worth posting about imo...

but i will anyway!!

the leon with same bhp but more torque should win mid range, but the astra would have better top speed and 0-60
