A crappy 1/4 mile time with high trap speeds usually means alot of wheel spin/hop and a crappy 60ft. I know from experience.

Keep working on that launch and you'll have good times. Also how are you shifting? I used to speed shift to keep the turbo spooled up but I found out my clutch was slipping.15.2@94
First and only run with regular shifting is ------>14.7@94.89 with 2.4 60ft. time
It was incredible to lose a half sec. just by shifting diff.

I found out my clutch was ultra soft compare to other 1.8T's. Can there be any reason for this? My 12000 is gonna be completed later on this week.

There obviously must be something wrong with my car... I have a smaller K03 (AWD) and my trap speeds are only 86-89 MPH and I am chipped.

Is that to be expected or does it sound like something is wrong with the car?
