whats faster?

A&Q about 350Z
Q:

hi all.
i dont know if this is in the right place but,
my mate (and a fellow forum user, Sheady) has recently had his bora 18t mapped (where it produced 203 bhp and 240ft/lb. we were having some banter and he reckons my scirocco (spec in sig, + KR cams , ashley 4 branch and jetex system) wont stand a chance.
i on the other hand think, and hope, i can supprise him with its light weight and probably more nimble handling.
what do you guys think, should i be worried? or can the rampent rocco pull it off?
cheers all
Jason.

I think you may beat him off the line but as soon as his turbo spools up then cya!!!

It would be a 1\4 mile sprint I'd like to see anyway.

my mate had a mk2 valver, he raced another lad in a 180 bhp cupra, he said the cupra was faster in 1st n 2nd, but in 3rd he pulled past. my mate (owner of the mk2) reckons the valver was faster up the rev range.

A:

You should beat him over the 1/4, but he'll be gaining by the end, assuming you both launch well.
For comparison purposes my 2.0 16v Roc runs 15.2 in road trim and while I've not raced a modded Bora I've beaten VR6 Ventos by over half a second.
A:

surely bora is lot heavier and whole bhp/ton an all that???

My MK2 Jetta vs My Seat Leon 180 Cupra....
Jetta smokes it....
I reckon you'd keep up no probs!
