LOL You're not actually thinking it through... but you're right

Dakota R/T, RWD, Auto, .06513 P/W (Give or take, read your mods. Add more.)
Beetle 1.8T AWD (?), Auto, .04996 P/W (give or take, don't know his)

You should have him. You have a little bit more HP than the stock R/T, so P/W ratio is slightly higher. If he does have AWD, he will beat you off the line and depending on how far you go, you will catch him pretty quickly.

 

whats the formula for the P/W ratio? i forgot.

 

I'm always right

 

Horsepower divided by weight.

 

do you know what year it is because halfway through 02 they upped the boost on the 1.8t and some otherthings and gave it 180 horse instead of 150

 

power to weights are a lot closer if its the 180 horse 1.8t and im only defending the engine not the beetle i know these things can ball becasue my friend has the 150 horse version in a jetta with no chip but some other things and it owns turbo eclipse's and colbalt ss's all day

 

According to everything I can find, the only model with 180 horses, is the S. The change in 2002 was the S, with the 1.8T 180 hp engine.

 

oh i guess im thinkin jetta's and gti's then because after 02 all 1.8t's were 180 horse

 

it doesnt matter 150 or 180, I know it doesnt have 300 ft. lbs of torque.

 

No but it has AWD... if it had 180 hp and AWD... It'd be closer.
