MM EATON VS VW TSI K04

[BeeDamn]

Hi everyone

Guys I want to ask you if anybody tried with the GOLF GTI MK6 or any VW TSI engine ?
For me I can't beat the GOLF but I do beat the VW CC 2010 which is the same engine as the GTI !

Anyway the important thing here guys that I planned to put the EATON in my MM with some Bolts-On, let's say I run 430whp and my friend with the CC he well put the K04 turbo upgrade Stage 3 from APR (http://www.goapr.com/products/turbo_trans_20_tsi_k04.html) !

What do you guys think, who's gonna win in the 1/4 mile street racing ?
The APR employee he claims that with the stage 3 you can smoke SRT8 !!!!

Please I need your thought so maybe i'll change my goal to some serious BOooOst

Thank you,

WoW no one ever try or can guess :( looks like the k04 people gonna smoke me !!!

Power to weight, isn't stange three like 275/300 hp and a gti is like half the car

Hmm,, I didn't quite understand :( is there's a power to weight ratio or something so how can I figured it out?
So guys nobody tried with the k04 people before?

Maybe a 6.1 srt but my 392 hemi holds it own.

Assuming traction is not an issue, power-to-weight ratio is the best indicator of how fast a car is in a straight line.

Simply take the weight of the car, take 4100lb Marauder, and divide by the peak power 410RWHP = 10lbs/HP
If a Miata weights 2000lbs and has 220RWHP its power to weight is 9.01lbs/HP

The less weight per horsepower the faster the car. In this case the Miata is likely faster event though it has almost half the power.

Obviously this is a very crude estimation and there are many other variables that can grossly change outcomes. Some setups have high peak power but inconsistent power bands, and others have flatter power bands, setups with flatter power bands will be faster with similar power to weight. Cars with better tuned gear ratio's, both final drive and transmission ratios will be faster than cars with poorly tuned gear ratios, ie a Marauder with 4.10s and a 6 speed will be faster than a stock 3.55 and 4 speed auto with the same power to weight - there are many other variables, tech, and of coarse driver; but power to weight is a quick and semi-accurate way to estimate speed.
