12.9?? damn..

turbovr6jetta

sorry bout that the correct time was 12.9217sec @ 116mph.... forgot the 2 in there lol

its nothing big *thats with drag tires.* Hopefully when I have more money I can invest into a larger turbo and work more on suspension.

Plus this is a daily driver so I dont want to invest too much into it because of the yearly kilometers it receives. I hope i can soon buy a daily banger an save the jetta as a project car. I feel bad about driving it soo much everyday and im scared that by the time I am finished with it it will have too many kms on it. Maybe this summer i can find something cheap as a daily banger and let the jetta sleep during long drives and winters.

i hope to one day make it in the mid 11's that would be a nice sleeper. Although I am pretty happy with it now. Budget is the only problem....

here is a close up magnified pic of the time slip with my best run.....

You're running c2 fueling... you can't tune the car yourself unless you get an eprom burner, a bunch of programs, and actually know how to do it.
Usually c2 chips are good AFR wise, they just run conservative timing

Great work, good luck with the tuning

LOL! don't worry, 12.9xxx is still pretty fast. nice ride, keep us updated :thumbsup:

turbovr6jetta

thanks for the great and positive comments and yes as stated the car is not tuned properly but hopefully this summer I can take it to a decent shop and have it tuned. If i manage to buy a everyday beater, I might invest more cash into a bigger turbo and suspension mods n maybe start taking the car to the circuit track and see if it can do circuit and not only straight ways. Once again money is the issue so baby steps until the final product. That is the reason y I didnt bother with fancy racing seats and carbon mods or bodykits. I have to spend money wisely on engine mods. Eventhough a nice chameleon paint job would look good I am sure it wouldnt get much brag rights at the track. lol
