Good case for a remap?

[Rickman]

Found this interesting site which may be familiar to some of you,

www.autoroadtests.com

Look under browse technical date and you will find performance figures for standard LCR's and a revo version. This indicates about a four second decrease in th 0-90 time for the revo car...blimey didn't realise it was that much!

Interestingly the power/weight and torque/weight rations for the standard LCR, CTR and WRX are about the same. Probhably why there are so many spats over whose is best, they are apparently in essence very 'samey' though i grant they drive very differently.

Hopefully this may provide some answers to the many remap questions which crop up on the forum.

neither did I! 0-60 decrease I thought was about 1 sec, so thats 3 secs off 60-90 time then?

A very unaccurate site. The Skoda Octavia vRS is quicker to 100?
A 225 is slower than a 210? Don't know much about this site. But they all seem like guestimates taking from a magazine.

I'd go along with that. Alot of facts figures here

On reflection i would tend to agree that some of the facts and figures look a bit odd when you examine them closely.
Just goes to show that it's best not to believe everything you read.

yeah, you see their data is probably collated from a whole range of source. Different cars, conditions, drivers methods etc will give a big variation in 0-60 times.
