I didn't know how to title this thread properly but hopefully this should explain it:
Car A (FWD): Petrol, 1.8T @ 180bhp (stock)
Car B (FWD): Diesel, 2.0TDI @ 140bhp mapped to 180bhp (everything else is stock)
Which is more likely to win:
a) Off the lights.
b) Rolling.
Now I know a Diesel is going to have much more Torque so would this make it faster in both scenarios?
If so, how much more BHP does Car A need, to have the equivalent performance of Car B...?
