here are the runs I've done so far with lauch control : first one a bit downhill until 110 then a bit uphill, second was flat, last was a bit uphill. did someone try as well ?
I'll let you open excel ^^ let us informed. If I have the time i'll try to make a graph as wellThanks for doing these. Not tried it - mine arrives in March! But looking like 0-100 in 6.8 is bang on the nail Do you have a method of measuring the 30-50 and 50-70 times (although I guess you could work it out from graphing those - /me opens excel...)?
Dynolicious, an app for the iphone. pocketdyno is good also for android usersWhat did you use to measure?
Now that is impressive!0-60 - 4.29 secs / 60 feet - 1.84 secs / 330 feet - 5.16 / Peak horsepower 277 / Data quality registered as best, Done in the WET!
If you can post the full data (i.e. secs for every 10km/h), I'll give you 30-50 and 50-700-60 - 4.29 secs / 60 feet - 1.84 secs / 330 feet - 5.16 / Peak horsepower 277 / Data quality registered as best, Done in the WET!
Nice!Didn't go to 70mph but... 10mph - 0.73 / 20mph - 1.09 / 30mph - 1.72 / 40mph - 2.46 / 50mph - 3.29 / 60mph - 4.29
Which shows 4th/5th as quite close - presumably to give optimal power at the 30-50ish mph...and those are gearbox ratios in a graph : (didn't have the time to do first gear yet)

Nice!
70 should be 5.44 secs.
30-50: 1.58 secs
50-70: 2.15 secs
The equation for 0-any mph is:
secs = 0.000714*mph^2 + 0.0219*mph + 0.416
Nope. Those are in km/h so need to convert to mph first and the only way to do that is to figure out the equation that describes the acceleration as it's not a straight line....Don't need to graph, just a single subtraction!
Well, I would have had I had the 70mph figure, but I didn't.... the "Didn't go to 70mph but..." is the key giveaway....You are overcomplicating things! If you want the 30 - 50 time, just take the 0 - 30 time away from the 0 - 50 time, simple as that. Which exactly matches the results you posted above for the 30 - 50 and 50 - 70.
I love the fact that with enouth power one could go up to 280+ kph with a diesel A3
Be interested to see how the manual 184ps compares (although it does depend on how slick one is on the gear changes!). I certainly have had no complaints regards the power..
no way you can match the Stronic with launch control
Sorry I missed this .......... Yeh mine is only the 150, the 184 wasn't available when I ordered the car.Is this the 150 or 184?
I'm right in thinking that's about 135mph...not bad for a diesel. Very similar to what I was able to get out of my old remapped 170
Oh... Lovely! Someone to try it out and see what it does before my 184Q even arrivesI just ordered a tuning box from DTUK, will see what this baby can do with it !
Sorry I missed this .......... Yeh mine is only the 150, the 184 wasn't available when I ordered the car.
I actually got it to 140mph on the speedo , needle speedometer 140 indicated but by the time my mrs got her phone out and took a pic it was at what it was at.
Also like I said above we had a good 100kg of luggage + me 95kg + mrs they don't tell you there weight..... So yeh not bad I suppose. Someone with the 184 needs to go to Germany and test it for us ;-)

Cool! You think it is a worthwhile upgrade then?I actually forgot something important, we were 2 in the car for those last tests.
