The daily Leon FR.
Hurdy:
Well, I went ahead and bought the Leon FR 184 DSG. Apollo blue, 5dr.
Arrived Thursday morning and mapped Thursday afternoon. :evilgrin:
So, after putting REVO stage 1 on my Leon FR184 DSG 5dr I decided to do some 0-60mph testing. The photos below show 3 pulls on the flat and one downhill run for comparison. The last photo shows the average of the three flat runs with the horsepower calculation at the wheels. The runs were timed using the Dynolicious App on my IPhone 6+, which has proved quite accurate when compared to my old VBox in the past. The wheel horsepower I recorded is also very close to the wheel horsepower that REVO quote for their stage 1 too. :happy2:

Great work, bet you're struggling to handle all that torque...

No torque steer, but plenty of Wheelspin and axle tramp if I get too aggressive. I reckon there is a 6.1 in there with a good launch. Not too worried as it is just the daily, but I may well see what it does down at Santa Pod for a laugh. :happy2: :driver:

6.1 seconds 0-62mph was about what the Golf R took to reach 100mph, right? Still, as daily drivers go, it's got more bhp and torque than a stock mk5 GTI!

5.4 secs to 60mph with the Revo stage 1 map @ 210hp? Seems bloody impressive to me Jon @Hurdy :happy2:
I'm running the same power give or take Stage 2 Revo generic map on my CR170 and I won't really get close to 6 seconds with the 6MT launch control mashing the clutch :rolleye: :sick:
DTUK on the same engine and same range of cars claim 240ps ( :laugh: :grin: ) and their own YouTube videos show their 184 TDI DSG Octavia doing around 6.4secs to 60mph. I think this tells it's own story really.
