Default 0-60 times.

If a stock hawk sti has a 0-60 of 4.8 ish. What are people getting on your built ones been contemplating this for a while. I would be intrested to find what kind of 0-60s people are getting with xxxpower and xxx torque. For example would 400/450 see you sub 4s.

Just about I would think, all comes down to how brutal you are at launching it.
According to torque stats calculator mine does 0-60 in 3.4, might try and give it a go one day!

Had a go of one of them and gave about the same result. Torque pro can measure 0-60 but im not launching my car to find out. I know from a rolling start say 10-70 is stupidly quick.

Gives a pretty good idea of what could be possible

I dont understand how they can calculate it without taking torque into account. It only goes off bhp and weight

lol, you can’t calculate 0-60 from that. What about torque, tyre compound, tyre condition, tyre psi, road surface, wind direction, type of fuel, weather temperature etc etc, the list is endless.

Does a hawk sti do 4.8s to 60?

All down to conditions, tyres fitted, launch rpm etc......

It’s not so easy to to launch 4wd cars, but with that being said my hatch sti and current bugeye sti seem relatively easy, well it seems that way. The Evo ain’t so easy to do.

What I’d be more intrigued about is the rolling times, 30-100, 30-130 etc.

My bugeye sti with ej25 built @ 319/325 is doing 4.6 to 60, that was recently in wet conditions and cold temps. The car is getting mapped on Tuesday and I’ll do some tests again to compare, I’m expecting slightly better 0-60 times but where I’m expecting to see bigger differences is the 0-100 time.

The downside is the time that’s lost when changing gear, that’s where these automatic gearboxes comes in handy, they work ridiculously well.

Would also be interesting to see how flat foot shifting would improve 0-60.
I would think there must be an improvement over normal shifting

Saw a white type r (think his name is Mario) do a 3.71 0-60 at York Raceway. At the time he was running mid 400's but believe the car is now in the 500 club.

From what i've read, and looking at the 1/4 mile leaderboard on here, getting the time down by even 0.5 of a second is a big leap in terms of power, weight and ££

I've often wondered what the stats are for a JDM blob sti? UK cars are supposedly 5.2 seconds so presumably JDMs are quicker. I believe my car is mapped as I often see 1.5 on the boost gauge so I assume I must dip under the 5 second mark. As people have said, launching the buggers isn't as easy as your think and it feels brutal on the car

If the uk Bug Sti is claimed to drop from 5.2 - 4.6 @ PPP 300bhp

I would imagine with a decent launch control setup and modern tyres there would be no reason not to expect it to dip under 4.5, with same power.

I would then expect to get closer to 4 flat with all stock hardware pushed to about 340/340

Was the 2.5 Cosworth not claiming 3.(Something) ??

All the figures are subjective. A few factors to consider.
Factory figures are optimum.
Ditchfinder tyres will stop traction.
Rubbish suspension as above.
Cheap induction.
Age = loss of power.

I remember getting 4.4 on my racelogic box at the pod running over 400hp but my 60ft times were never good, best 1.9 sec and 12.6 for the 1/4.

That’s my 2 runs either way on the same stretch of road.

The car is getting mapped today so I’ll be able to do the tests again and see the difference. Power will be unknown until I get it on the RR but the power for the below runs is

319/325 on Hypertech’s Dyno.

A stock Hawk STi is quoted as 5.2 to 60, the PPP version is 4.8.

To be perfectly honest 0 to 60 is pretty meaningless in the real world, and like has been mentioned, not so easy in an Impreza unless you're really brutal with the clutch.

Will have to wait, boost solenoid is goosed and won’t go over 1 bar.

As above, I’m not a massive fan of launching the car, I like to do it once or twice to know what’s it’s capable of and that’s it. The rolling times are what tickles my fancy, real world stuff, overtaking speeds etc.

10 -70 would be intresting to know or 10-100 ect. More out of intrest than anything else i bet there are plenty of people who wonder how quick these things are at different power levels.

I have the ECUTEK set up by Martyn with flat foot shifting and about 355-360 depending on the weather. With the O.E. Bridgestones, I daren't try the Launch Control in the dry- Too Brutal. The Clutch, an AP Organic, is pretty good, but Alan did say it would be good for three launches. Gulp.

I've done one. That's it. Through the gears the flat foot shifting is pretty impressive, but I can't remember the last time I used the second MAP with it all on. Getting old and sensible...

mines running well over 500-and without very careful clutch balancing it will just leave lots of smoke and wheelspin off the line -in all honesty its probably better it does spin -if it hooked up it would probably break something lol.

incy 235 tyres struggle to put it down in the dry ,in the wet i would,nt even try tbh
