New TT RS stage 1 0-60 etc

[Anakin]

I have a Mapped 2010 MT TTRS its quick but the new ones are mental.
from a post on the TT RS FB page

Performance figures for APR Stage 1 E85R MY18 TTRS 8S.

1/4m = 10.58 @ 132mph
0-60mph = 2.90
0-100mph = 6.24
0-130mph = 10.24
0-100kmh = 3.02
0-200kmh = 9.37
100-200kmh = 6.24
60-130mph = 7.34

All times with part throttle limited launch control on standard 20” wheels and Pzero tyres.

mental ...

Still boring.

Its not all about a straight line impressive but how does it corner...

[ph001]

..but bloody hell yeh that is quick. Aren't these just shy of 400bhp out of the box? In which case I'm guessing the stage one is close to 500bhp. That a lot of boost for a 2.5l mind, not be too convinced of the reliability of that.

The tt just doesn't grab me at all, combination of looks, drivetrain, weight and image I suppose...
Lotus exige, porsche cayman, alpine a110 all in kind of similar price bracket

0-100kmh = 3.02
0-200kmh = 9.37
100-200kmh = 6.24

Should the 100-200 timing not be 6.35? Sorry, but working in finance for the last year has got me ocd about numbers addingg up

But that aside, seriously quick, for the price those numbers are like GTR and GT3 speeds.
But handling and character cant comment as havent driven any

But its a TT ....

No, because one is a rolling start from 100kmh to 200kmh and the other times start from a stand still.

Interesting the negative comments most likely from those who have never even seen or heard them let alone driven one the Rs is not "just a TT " its a very potent & competent machine that is rarer than a Z4M & has very few equals for the ££ spent to get in one .
Ok its previous model but currently running around 435bhp , it recently blew me away with embarrassing ease

Hardly surprising, considering it has 100bhp more and has a turbo, but yes, they are impressive motors indeed.

I've never understood the negativity about them. I guess many people just listen to Jeremy clarkson and pistonheads members.

Haven't driven one myself, but I can't imagine them being that boring. It would scare the life out of pretty much anyone and I bet it would do well down a B Road aswell.

Not driven the RS in this model. BUT we had a 2.0t...bloody awful and not a good engine...ans a 3.2 Quattro....both the MK2....and I did not like the drive in them tbh. Big n bulky and very little character compared to the original ones which I think drive very well....Not Z well, but still a nice drive with plenty of grip and feedback.
RSto me had to be in Avant form...

Fair enough that different starts would explain the differences, but I would expect the rolling 100-200 still be a bit slower due to reaction times, but we’re splitting hairs, still bloody fast

i love these!

Having driven a number of very fast Audi's I still have no desire to own one. No character what so ever. It's been a while though. But just looking at the current model turns me right off it. However fast and competent it might be.
