Thought I'd share some performance unofficial stats from my car.

For various reasons I felt it necessary to change my ecu to a Motec M800 unit... this has accurate data logging which is how I have been able to overlay the revs etc onto video footage recently and then post a short video... I got asked if i had any performance figures and my initial response was no... however I later realised that wasn't true and I spent a bit of time extracting data from my ecu.
I have 3 wheel speeds going into the ecu, 2 rear and 1 front which are gps confirmed.

While testing the launch control and traction control on a cold but dry night I did do a launch but it wasn't set up right and I had a huge amount of wheelspin up to around 50mph.... I checked the telemetry and it had achieved a 3.4s 0-60... so imo its sub 3 seconds to 60mph for sure but thats a guess and it is my only fast launch i have done in the car.

On track my telemetry shows on one straight I did 60-141mph in 5.8 seconds (with Metalman as a passenger).

Stick the 2 bits of data together and you have 0-141mph in 9.2seconds.... given that the 1200bhp veyron supersport was independently timed as 0-150mph in 10.1 seconds and the new P1 is 0-147.5mph in 10.2seconds... so even with a poor 0-60 it seems I'm pretty much a match as the car does 140-150mph in around 1 second in 6th gear smile

Of cause this is all unofficial with me stringing together 2 bits of logged data so very back of fag packet and proves nothing so please treat it as such.... but its food for thought smile

Them figures don't surprise me whatsoever after seeing it in action at Silverstone down the straights, astonishing pace, video's n stats don't do visual justice.

Incredible pace Andy. Where are you on bhp / lbft now to be running this? Presumably this is with your full fat 700bhp+?

Pretty impressive mate, be intrested to know the diff with traction, and without. I have all the same features on my Life F90 ecu, snd have been toying with the idea of setting up my launch and traction, as like you, if i nail it from 1st she will wheel spin all the way to 5th lol, u have to be very smooth and progressive to get the best from it. Intresting, will get the info from my data logger see if i can work mine out, prob not, doh, took me weeks to learn how to download the new maps Terry emails me lol

The performance figures above are all without any traction control activated at all, I had it totally turned off at silverstone, just wasn't needed.

The 0-60 time was me testing the launch control and it was way off and simply did a huge burnout, I had after all mashed the throttle to the floor and side stepped the clutch and hoped it was close lol.... But my focus was on activating it and I will refine it myself.... Would have been rude not to test it though.

I upped the power around 40bhp and 30ftlb at the last mapping session a few months back, it's now reached it's limit power wise but it still capped for torque.... It's now comfortably over 700bhp and 600ftlb.
I wanted 700bhp per tonne and I have reached that so I'm finally happy :-)

Very impressive indeed Andy. Really nice work. Can't wait to see some more footage. Get yourself to Vmax for some drag racing with some top end exotics.

Without launch, u done well mate, great 0-140 performance, thats le man GT2 fig. Wonder what 0-60 and stop would be?

I maxed out on mine now, couldnt get over 700bhp on my turbos, only got 700,lol, max torque is 600 but capped it at 580, Do you thibk we may of slightly over engineerd our cars lol
