i am sorry to bother you guys however i have been wondering i have tried with 225Q in stock form and pulled it however i have tried with my friend mk2 TT 2.0T and he always pulls me up top and he is stock whats the difference between a 225Q and an mk2 TT which should be slower right !!

i just want to know is my friend lying and is chipped or is it really that much faster than a 225Q. i believe i should have more than 200bhp with my mods i should be around 230bhp and he still pulls me it doesnt make sense. any explanation would be appreciated thanks.

 

What do YOU have?...

 

i have a 180Q 5sp manual with chip, adj 4 bar fpr, cai, 3"Dp, 3"test pipe, gfb hybrid bov/dv.

 

the 2.0t is fwd less drivetrain power loss

 

does it make that much of a difference and another question here we dont have dyno's what would guestimate my bhp should be at with my mods. crank hp not wheel hp

 

i would check on your chips website for hp numbers exhaust and intake dont add much fwd is 15% loss awd is 25% or 30% depending on who you ask

 

you mean 3"dp and full 3" exhaust dont add much !!! however it is said in faq that doing DP is like being chipped all over again and also the car pulls much better with dp than before especially up top

 

He is also 300lbs lighter, and if he has the DSG he can shift faster

 

he has dsg but is it faster than 225q because he easily pulls them and in the same night he pulled a 350z auto quite easily

 

The 2.0T is well, a 2L with higher compression, better flowing head, and larger turbo. All this leads to a much LONGER power band. I last dynoed in sig, but that is just spikes and no real power band. If i came across someone that had 180whp and 250wtq but it lasted for 2000-3000rpms instead of 500-750rpms, the other person would most likely win with weights be =.

Numbers are great, but a powerband is better
