Welcome to our new sponsor Lecatona, a brand dedicated to enhancing performance for VAG group sports cars, including SEAT, Audi, Volkswagen and Škoda. Specializing in High Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) upgrades.
That is just mental. And it probably still turns in about 30mpg. Its enough to make you weep as even in a truly quick petrol car your going to struggle to match that kind of power. The ultimate street sleeper???Oh it is pretty impressive (5 series not the 3, I haven't tried one of those), 0-100 in something like 12.x seconds. Still getting used to it and still haven't turned off the traction control! Has some great kit as well - heads up display which shows speed and navigation info and it also has paddles fitted. TBH it only really gets going above 50mph. Looking forward to taking it to the alps in the spring - that is when it will really show it's legs.
what's the heads up display?
and where in the alps you gonna take it if you don't mind? [I'm italian]

Display projected onto the windscreen, it is as if your speedo is floating somewhere on your bonnet. French ski resorts - La Rosiere (so no doubt skiing into La Thuile) and Les Arcs.
So remapping the 330's 204BHP lump will produce 280hp?!!! did i read that right?
Jesus.
A rolling start against an M3? that would be interesting.
Just done the sums and found I might have to hang onto the Leon a little longer
If I'm to get the M sport. But patience is the key, I didn't rush into buying the seat and thats turned out to be the best motor i've owned.

wow, did some googling and found out what are the torque figures for a chipped 330d,,,
would you like 610Nm???

I would, clutch wouldn't. How are BM's clutches?

The Merc C55 AMG (5.5 V8) is only 510Nm, and they had to stick to a 5 speed auto box in that as the 7 speed couldn't handle the torque.
How long before a car breaks the 1000Nm torque barrier.... (if one hasn't already)
Talking about stock cars there's the veyron and the 6.0 tdi that audi stuck into the Q7, it has 500hp and 1000nm. I guess there's some american engine that passed that too,,, some special edition viper or corvette I guess,,,
Oh, IIRC there's some 600+hp mercedes that has passed that too,,, maybe it was the SLR??
if we're talking about modified cars then there's a load,,,

Don't forget the 335i is out with a petrol twin turbo 3.0 V6. Near as damm it as quick as the current M3 0-60 with more torque, a quick remap on that puppy would be interesting.......
Is the new M3 comin out with a turbo engine too??
Plus I heard bmw is gonna make a 2.0 200hp diesel and a 3.0 300hp diesel as well,,, can anyone confirm this?
