on this site. http://r19club.svetaine.lt/mod_articles_item.php?pid=7&id=10 it's say's the ph2 0.3 seconds slower to 60 than a ph1. Now I know that about right because I've had both. You think the time's are about right. ?

I have the original brochure for my p1 chammy which quotes 0-62 of 8.2 secs so those figures seem to be manufacturer's quotes.

No idea what mine actually does it in though, some days it seems rapid, others it seems nothing special.

Mine has rapid and non-rapid days too lol. Some days I'll go to overtake something and hell it'll shift, like it'll surprise me how quick it is.......and then other days it will be 'normal' again. Weird

Mines the same. Exactly as Simonds says, you go to over take and you think fooooooooooooooooooooooooooook me, end up driving around unneccesairily then the next day it was like it was just a dream. If its any consolation my friend who has a Nissan Sunny GTIR kicking out 300 Bhp said some days his car feels increadably slugish also.
