    bandendruk leave pockets up to 1.9bar
    That bit sounds chipped to me. 1.9bar boost spikes? Sounds tuned.

    Peak horsepower doesnt tell the whole thing, we need to see his graph

    Well it does, cos it says stock, so you'd assume it's a stock power curve.

    Stock doesn't have boost spike that high righ? To beat 911 Turbo, you definetely needs something more than stock...

    Still, the driver's launching is darn good. Many people hard to believe our car can give 630 and 645 a run for their money, been there done that hehe

    I find the lack of wheel spin most interesting...

    Yea I'm thinking LSD and a very tight one at that.

    I don't think anyone would be insane enough to put in a locked diff in a FWD car. I've heard of people doing it to BMW's though

    This is a message I got from him on Youtube.

    Pretty informative.

    thank you for watching my video's.
    what i have realy done to it is mensioned in the vidoclip,
    engine Only has a K&N airfilter on it and yes its lowerd with KW V1 adjustable suspension.
    just have got new tires on it for the sprint in Ciney. and they are the same as before from factory, Dunlop SP sportmaxx.
    the vid on the dyno was without K&N and full stock and i got 161Hp and 250nM, so adding the HP from the K&N would give 165Hp maybe?
    with the airfilter on it he breaths better in higher RPM and is slightly noticeable.
    this is all thats done to the car.

    to be more honest, you can't believe how many massages i have had about my polo and what is been done to it.
    but i have no reason to lie about somthing like this would i?
    however, i am a trained sprinter (dragracer)
    and i know pretty good how to launch a car.
    practiced alot and still do.
    i know nobody with a FWD car that can launch like me, not even with semi slick toyo R888 tyres against me on street tires......
    i do not say this to be cool or anything but it's true, so i guess this is the only reason i can think of about my polo being so fast...?
    believe me when i say, my GTI also surprises me everytime when i drag with it!
    so the only advice i can give youu is practise...alot

    in the future i'm planning chiptuning yes,
    but i waith untill i get my other mods first so the chiptuning can be adjusted on the tuning thats been done to the car by then.
    planning to go K04s and get arround 260 - 280Hp.
    do not want to go GT28RS and have above 300Hp because if you go over that, the best is to improve the internals of the engine.
    it's a daily car and i want it to be a bit safe and driveable.
    but that are future plans

    if there is anything else you would like to know, just ask.

    as i think of it, i forgot to tell you some details about ciney that are important.

    did some changes to the Car, allways do them when i go dragracing,
    bcakseat, not nessasery so get it out, it saves you about 30Kg.
    In bittburg i drove full stock 15.3sec on 1/4mile
    with backseat dropped out i got it to 15.1
    0-60 full stock was about 6.5seconds, with backseat out i got it to 6.3sec.
    so that 30kg. from the backseat gives you 0.2sec. advantage.

    for good 0-60 times you can do that and also flatten the tires a bit.
    normal tyres are around 2.2 - 2.6Bar
    i have flatten then to 1.8Bar pressure so you get better grip from the line and youre launch will be better!!
    BUT! there is a downside for flatten you tires...
    they wear much faster (not such a problem)
    but, if you flatten them to much, you maybe can get fast 0-60times, but slower 1/4mile times...
    you get more grip in the beginning but ones the car is on the move it will be slower then when it is running on harder tires (more pressure)
    but if you search enough about when you have just enough grip to launch fast it should be good.

    and for the rest i realy don't have any other tricks or so,
    this compared with K&N filter and KW V1 is what you see in the vids.
    my 0-60 times in Ciney were arround 6.4seconds, if i had more time to search out the pressure in the tires properly i would have gone faster

    Grtz
