Default 0-60 MPH in a Chipped Car is...?

I am doing a Stage 1 APR chip. I knwo the torque and horsepower but how fast it is off the block?


Can I beat a Boxster S, S2000, etc...

Should be sub- 6.0, no?

CAR IS 225TTQC. stock is would be 6.3.

Default Depends on how abusive to the clutch you wanna be..

mid 5's have been bandied around, and seem feasable...

Definitely. I beat Boxster S with my stock 225 Roadster. They are very close as it is stock.

Default Then the Boxster S driver didn't know how to drive. A stock 225 TTQR isn't a match for a Z3 3.0i...

...let alone a Boxster S. A stock 225 Coupe is another story...at least against the Z3.

Forget about gearing advantages...
Boxster S = 250hp and 2855lbs.
225 TTQR = 225hp and 3472lbs, even the Coupe weighs ~3200lbs.

Sure it is. You just got to know how to drive a Quattro.

Default All I can say is do the math. A stock 225 TTR is no match for a Boxster S with a competent driver.

You can't argue with the laws of physics. The TTR's weight is its 'biggest' detriment in a drag race, and Quattro won't make the car faster in a straight line. If anything the fact that all of the mechanicals are there slows you down!
