With those ~7.59 seconds, it just can't be right...
The 7.59-second time is something I can no longer achieve in stock condition.
When typing on a keyboard, I estimate it takes around ~10 seconds. |
With the data you provided, the ventilation calculator doesn't produce any other results. The matter hinges on the translation ratios or the
actual speed at 2000 rpm.
If you're willing to put in the effort: turn the engine to Top Dead Center (TDC), then insert the number 3 spark plug. Engage the gear, push the car forward at least 4 engine revolutions (until it's precisely aligned with Top Dead Center again), and measure the distance traveled with an accuracy of 1 cm.
This allows you to obtain a fairly precise value, including the actual rolling circumference, which can then be converted to km/h at 2000 rpm.
Here's a small tip: the CTN transmission in the Golf 3 has an axle ratio of 3.158. 3.6 is the reverse gear ratio.
"If I enter the values for the golf CTN (3. " With a gear ratio of 1.360, the stock motor achieves a time of approximately 9.36 seconds for a vehicle weighing 1400 kg.
To improve the time to 6.8 seconds, approximately 32% more power is needed, which translates to about 118 horsepower / 267 Nm of torque.
