 Project A3 DSG: VF-Engineering Engine and Transmission Mounts | « » 12:43 AM 12/21/2006 | |
|
 In previous Project A3 installments, power upgrades that have been done to the car were detailed. One can throw power at anything, but if you cannot control that power than it is of no use to the driver. With a coilover suspension, rear sway bar, and bigger brakes already installed and covered, attention swung toward another area that requires control – engine and transmission mounts. Full Story

I would like to see 0-60 mph of the project car. I wonder if all those modifications made a difference

I would like to post things like that as well.can you accurately get 0-60 60-0 and 0-100 information from logging in VAG-COM? I had also posted a few weeks ago my 1/4 mile experience with the car
4 runs i ran between a best 14.8 and 15.09 all between 97.0 and 97.4mph. i was running on the now sold 19" Schmidt wheels and not the more worthy 18's with the Azenis tires.
