Fitted a new n75valve yesterday and recorded 6.7 in 3rd but 5.8 using 2nd and 3rd
Chuffed to bits with that as its 0.4 secs quicker than a ctr!

i know for a start a ctr would prob kill me lol, but im very chuffed with my 6.61 in 3rd gear 30 - 70 mph, ill try a 2nd gear start and into 3rd but i rekon ill only get about 6.4 maybe 6.3 i prob wont get any where near 5.9 as when you are starting in 2nd you are on boost straight away so your car will prob pull alot quicker
I love days when you go for a drive and the car feels responsive, willing and powerful. Its great!
Would be nice if the wife were that way sometimes.....

I hope to be 3 flat, as at 50 in 3rd I'm a good sweet spot in the rev range.

I must get a video done some time, then at least I can try and work out the times.
I had a quick try tonight, 30-70 in 3rd is off boost for a short while, but still not bad at an average of 5.6. 30-70 in 2nd is awesome 4.5 average, you have to wait for a fraction for the turbo to kick in but when it does, boy does it go.
Car had half a tank of Ultimate diesel and it was registering 14 degrees outside. Nice and warm evening for a change.

30 to 70 in 2nd in a diesel leon
How does that work then?
A leon or ibiza will not do 60 in 2nd never mind 70!
Sorry It was late last night and my eyes were half asleep, yes 2nd/3rd gear. 2nd's only good for 50MPH ish
i'll go for a drive now and see if i can get something reasonable done on the way back. surely it's hard with a phone stopwatch but i'll see if it makes sense
