Had great fun, but still no 13 second pass yet.... Being a concrete runway doesn't help with traction. 14.006 my best 1/4 mile and best 0-60 was 5.96 - not bad a for a front wheel drive diesel 5 door hatch....


Beating a yellow octavia vRS, tuned

Beating what was badged as a "VR6T" mk2 golf. Didn't live up to my expectations and lost the battle!

Good effort for some diesel POWAAAAH.

guessing you are running circa 200hp 450pounds torque to get up and go in 5-6s and low 14s 1/4.

I'd Imagine he was running alot more than 200BHP!

Nice to see a decent amount of smoke coming from the exhaust towards the end of the video smile

Its a PD100 TDI 100hp, converted to run fabia vRS running gear, then I have modded the hell out the engine - forged rods, ported head, bigger exhaust valves, high flow injectors, high lift cam, tubular manifold to latest 3.0 V6 garrett turbo, and quite a few other mods like nitrous and water/meth injection, FMIC, oil & fuel coolers, and then controlling mods like 600 lb/ft clutch + LCR Brembo 4 pot brakes.

Estimated to be running about 270bhp now, and on final tune-up, probably around 300bhp / 450 lb/ft
