I'm thinking of an R-Tech stage 1 remap, together with a milltek resonated exhaust.
What BMW would it be comparable to in terms of performance? A 335D?
Thanks
-
A remapped K03 GTI wouldnt compare to a 335d. I think that even a stage 1 K04 GTI would struggle to see off a 335d and its huge amounts of torque.
-
I thought the 0-60 for a mk5 stage 1 would be around 6 secs (240+ bhp), which is roughly what an 335d does.
Basing on the fact an ED30 is 6.6 secs and has 226 bhp
-
A 335d is quicker. End of. Especially once rolling. A remapped gti Is Comparable to a 330i I would say :)
-
FWD 225 tyres getting power down is different to RWD 255 tyres getting power down, plus the BMW has around 390lb/ft std, no chance aginst one
My 330D LCI does 0-60 in 6.2 std and has about 370lb/ft torque
335d' remap 9Stage 1) to around 340bhp
-
Standard 335d is stage 1 Edition 30 pace.
Stage 1 GTI would be similar to a standard 330d lci (245 PS).

Doubtful on a 1/4 (if that's the frame of reference). With my stg-1 K03 I consistently beat my friend's quite heavily modified (ATB diff is probably all that matters for a 1/4) 130i on numerous 1/4 runs last year at Santa Pod. According to the timing sheet I was managing a fairly consistent 14 seconds dead 1/4 and the 130i was high 14s.
-
A 335d could not get near my stage 2 ed30 321bhp and 343lbs.there not that fast
-
What does it matter? :confused:
-
Dare I even mention an R32 in this thread :ashamed:
-
For the guys saying ''what does it matter''....bore off
For what it's worth, my bog standard gti was all over a 07 330d in the twistys, when it opened up i was still on his tail at 80/90 then he left me like i was stood still. Those cars are properly quick above the ton mark
I'd say a stage 1 gti circa 250bhp would be around the same as a 335d upto 80/90ish...after that no chance
-
The lighter weight of the GTI will allow it to pull away initially but the higher displacement of the 3.0l will reel in the GTI.
Here is a video, think its been posted before:
-
A stage 2 Edition 30 would win. A stage 1 Edition 30, I wouldnt like to put money on it. Thats my personal opinion. Anyone know anybody with a 335d :laugh:
Let the race commence!!
-
335d stage 2 near 400bhp and god knows how much torque they are bloody fast things
-
Ok i have to say something as my friend had a 335d 57plate and although it had allot of torque its not as fast as you may think over a ko3 gti stage 1 remap.
I had a standard mk5 gti when he had his 335d and in the 80/90 mph mark yes its faster but after i had remaped my gti i think it would of been evan maybe after 130 the bmw will be a car or two ahead. But i never got the chance to compare as he sold the car just before i remaped my golf
I did get to witness him go against my friends 350z 280bhp (on a closed road) and it was evan all the way past 130 mph. Im sure a stage 1 ed30 is by far quicker :smiley:

Really it doesnt matter which is quicker in a drag race as they are pointless. I doubt there would be very mich difference if you put them together on a nice twisty b road. Real world driving.
