thats understandable, you have more bhp with a box than was ever possible with a stage 2 tune of a mk2 and you're lighter.

Were just talking to Admin at present and will hopefully be an official sponsor within the next few days. We'll then be offering discounts to members on all of our systems. So watch this space.
Dean that sounds very impressive and may well adjust mine (on the shelf at the moment waiting for Mar 1st), as that seems the optimum setting. Can't wait till March!!
Got some Brembo calipers to go on which came off my mkII so hopefully they will fit under the 18" wheels. Will have a bit more confidence considering the extra power.
That will be wicked mate! I find the brakes good being 312's and 272's but im sure the brembos will help - especially as I just clocked a 5.8 0-60 on vcds with a full tank of fuel and a 100kg copilot ;-)
4+1 is what Andrew advised and is what he runs on his new vrs.
I wish I had the opportunity to put the old CR170 against a Cupra.
Don't think there would be much in it
as were not sponsors I've started a thread regarding the development of this kit.

Hi,
I have an Audi A3 8V TDI 184 Quattro Stronic with the same tuning box. Your times are amazing ! 5,8 is the best time I got with a mate inside the car and with the launch control !
I believe the Leon has a manual box ?
I am using map 4 + 2 but I find my 0-60 times really inconsistent. between 5.8 and 6.3
I've been following this thread as I'm tempted by the equivalent petrol box, just wondering how the ecommomy figures stack up to standard? Your long runs seem a great benchmark for the different settings.
Overall is it better, worse or the same?
I've had two car remapped in the past that both promised improved mpg but failed to produce the goods!

Hey mate. That does suprise me. 2wd is a major issue for this engine hence why your 4wd can do 0-60 half a second quicker even with its extra 100 odd kg.
Stronic/dsg makes it no quicker.
My times were all over the place, I must have fluffed 50% of them but I did get about 6 or 7 under 6 secs and standard was much easier to do clocking in all around 7 secs.

yes, I am surprised too, I am starting to think there is too much torque for the Stronic ?
before that, the launch control was pretty consistant, clocking 6,7s almost each time
this is my best run if you have yours too to compare :
0-20 km/h*0.76 s
0-40 km/h*1.58 s
0-60 km/h*2.59 s
0-80 km/h*4.11 s
0-100 km/h*5.82 s
0-120 km/h*8.31 s
0-140 km/h*11.01 s
60 Feet*1.92 @ 17.0 MPH
330 Feet*5.62 @ 61.0 MPH
1/8 Mile*8.79 @ 77.4 MPH
1000 Feet*11.52 @ 89.6 MPH
1/4 Mile*13.84 @ 95.2 MPH
400 Meters*13.78 @ 153.7 km/h

On a calm run not using the extra power I got 1mpg less and 2.5mpg more depending on the state of tune selected. This was as fair as I could possibly make it - I even used the same pump at the same station each day.
When you use the power you use more. I also tested a 30mile run where I ragged it as much as possible and got 38 down from 45.
The Dsg limit was talked about on the skoda forums - it does have a limit. Andrew may know more. Let me check the logs.
I'm a bit new at this, my logs are not that tidy. They are a list of speeds and distances in meters against times.
17km/h in 1.28
38km/h in 2.60
67km/h in 3.26
82km/h in 4.28
101km/h in 5.84
Bit **** but to my untrained eye it looks like im down half a second to 40km/h (as per book figures 2wd vs 4wd) then I claw it back as I'm back on track by 80km/h. The torque must be limited.
