0-100 Times

HI ALL

Does anyone have 0-100 times and horse power figures for their cars?

With a good start i can get an elise smoking 10 seconds and i have traditional air mods and an fmic/ apexi and have about 300-350 brake.

Just thinkin how cool it would be to have a rolling road day for RXs somewhere in the northwest UK?

That's what a big turbo with a lot of boost can do for you. IIRC, with my BNRs at 17 psi I was around 9 seconds when I got traction.

I can't think of any RX's near Ullapool, never mind rolling roads, Gerry in Thurso is probably the closest. Not any/many rotary vehicles in the NW of the UK.

My old car was IIRC 8.9 to 100mph (with a 2.6sec 60' as it was supposed to be a gentle sighting run) unfortunately I didn't get a proper launch with it in this spec, but if you base it on the 2.0 I ran at a later date with a dead engine it should have been low to mid 8s to 100 with around 440rwhp on road tyres on a non-prepped surface.

Thats what 461 rwhp and 2800 pounds does for you

This spring i will be updating those numbers. I had an insane boost leak while i did that run, so i was losing quite a bit of boost between shifts. Even tho i shift mad quik yo. lol

0 to 100 in approx 8 seconds, without a launch. The surface was pretty rough, thus the roll-on start and the easy shift into second.

i dont see a 6.9 second 1/8th at like 106-107mph being a problem for my setup... i just got to pick up a new set of tires.. i already fixed the boost leak

this summer will be fun!!!!
