Went back to Willowbank the other night. Managed a 13.6 which is the same as my personal best. It was 10 degrees warmer this time, and I've perfected my gearshift timing so hopefully I have a touch more time to take off.

2011 Polo GTI: APR Stage 1 tune, Harding Performance CAI, Whiteline sway bars, Insane driver
Bit overdue but here is my proof :
Bug_racer supports the rebellion of the euro revolution
I think Steve's car could run a similar time too but with no additional hardware here's what worries me about his car if I let it happen..
-Restrictive dump pipe and stock cat means bigger back pressure and much higher EGT's i.e potential knock
-A higher manifold pressure than 22 psi boost means a hotter charge being consumed especially with the stock FMIC i.e potential knock
-Stock intake means hotter air being consumed not too much of a worry but still see above
-Stock HPFP means a potential lean condition at lower RPM's
The heat thing is a real issue winter lets you get away with a lot but still when you log the car after tuning it you have to allow for summer, poor fuel and some mistreatment.

Who is Steve ?
I have no idea about the guys car or tune or boost level
From what I've seen of other tunes and what I've seen of Viezus they tend to err on the safe side
Like dynos, lots of variables in 1/4 mile times
