Golf 118TSI vs. 103TDI

[Corey_R]

Thanks logger.
So with the APR Stage I, the 118TSI is about where the MK6 Golf GTI is at standard, although without the composure that the GTI has doing it.
The old little Polo GTI with Stage I is just a touch quicker than both... that is until you then place the APR Stage I on the MK6 Golf GTI and it then leaves both behind.

The log that you're able to produce is pretty cool... now you just need to borrow someone's Golf GTI to produce the same log and compare hehe

Agreed fantastic stat's and a good read, Cheers logger.

Stoney!

Heres the log..

Nice work, Logger...

One point though - is this log 100% correct? Why is the speed at 400m slower than at 200m?

The first one was a 0 to 100kph run, and then what speed it was doing after 400m.
The next one was a 90 to 120kph rolling run, and then what speed it was doing after 200m.

That still doesn't sound right. Looking at the long table of times vs velocities at the end, I'd surmise that all of the figures are from the same run, but that logger backed off the accelerator a bit before the 300m mark. Extrapolating a bit by eye, I'd expect to see a realistic 400m trap speed in the 140-150 km/h range, probably closer to 150.

And if this log is anywhere near accurate, that's damned impressive performance from the chipped 1.4TSI.

nothing to say

Interestingly with the stock tune (APR stage1 disabled), 8.0 and 8.2 seconds although I only did two runs in that config. No slip, shudder or TC light in stock tune. Just Smooooth. Whereas in stage1 with TC active you get the TC light and intervention every time when it is active.
Keep in mind I only have the bog standard skinny tyres too.

So if I'm understanding right, you were testing that on the standard tune by taking your foot of the brake and then immediately flooring it without switching off TC, and there was no axle tramp, no flashing TC light? That surprises me because in my TSI with the stock tune (and SC2S4 recall applied) and sports pack (wider tyres than yours) I've accidentally spun the wheels and had the traction control intervene when taking off in a hurry.

Not interested any more.

For the record, I will log my TDI the same way, but have a best of 7.5 to 100k and a 15.5 400m using VCDS in the past. Pretty much stock. Also, having test driven all three in MK V manual form back to back, twice or more each over 4 hours, give me a GTI anyday for traffic light derby. Can't comment on DSG.

Yeah, get back on topic?
