PETROL vs DIESEL.. 380HP SKODA FABIA VRS vs 380HP VW GOLF GTI 

You ain't getting me bot!

Jamie I got 260-270 bhp 2060vklr skillaturbo built Ibiza if you got something to race:)

Jamie, what have you done for your mechanical credibility there bro.?? Should've blamed it on non car guy James. would've worked a treat GUV. I feel you blushing... Sorry my esteemed friend. :))

Pour la Skoda tdi , l'admission chauffe lors du run. Il faut faire 2 ou 3 run et puis laisser le moteur au régime stationnaire 1minute . Éteindre le moteur le temps qu'il refroidisse un peu. Et ok pour 2 ou 3 run.

That Škoda owner has deadly ill daughter and he spent so much money on car and asking people to help him save his daughter. WTF??? Who is crazy there??

its the turbo alternator sv45 capable for 500hp 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I think James does the b roll haha

ahahahah, has the electric improvement of the formula 1 turbos ahahahah

Was gonna say lol

it got me for a second

Speak of a sleeper 🤣 was hoping for him to win when I heard about his daughter, I'm a father of two little girls myself that's my worst nightmare they would get sick. Best wishes for Sienna 🙏❤️🤞🏻

I’ve gottta do that

@Kurt Veldeman the owner of the Fabia forgot that he isn't on "America's got Talent"

I think it's on the back of the engine, so you wouldn't see it very well from the front anyway.

I hope that one day someone puts the exhaust smoke in your mouth, just to see if it so pleasant as you like it

@@PramaNatiMV I have zero exhaust smoke on my car but okay lmao, the car in the video has a PD engine which is normal to smoke when pushing for maximum power. You think a gasoline car is less polluting just because you can't see the exhaust gasses? They're still there mate, try and ask someone to Rev one and stand behind it, you'll smell it right up, trust me.

@@ggcpf2874 The cancer particles that you find on diesel is huge compared to petrol, that's why diesel cars will always be way more danger that petrol ones and since people decat them diesel is way worse

@@PramaNatiMV people decat petrols as well, probably even more often for the pops and bangs I hear everyday, I'm not saying diesel smoke is healthy at all but most diesel owners buy them for fuel economy and keep them stock tbh.

He could do better with shifting if it had short shifter i could win

😂😂😂 No smoke, no poke. Realistically, soot is better for environment than petrol fumes. But they can cause cancer too so worse for people.

@@ibrahimyousef7913 petrol is worse for the polar bears, diesel is worse for everyone’s lungs 😂

Heck I could see polar bears melting.

@@wayland7150 polar bears don't melt... Polar ice caps do

just shove DPF in this Fabia 😀

Nice 🤣

that's was like a Venom coming.. 😂😂😅

Losing a boost pipe in the process 😂

Dobre 🤣

Diesel is the best engine

😂😂😂😂

I’m glad someone else saw it 😂😂😂

😂😂😂

Does a great job of charging the battery too 🤦🏻‍♂️

Lol 😂I had to read the comments when they showed the alternator

🤣

lmaooo turbo??? ok then

🤡🤣🤣

they should have used dsg cars for the test but the diesel would still win with better gearbox, petrol 380hp has like idk 400-500nm max? while diesel 380hp engine will have like 700nm of torque lol

@@jomyo420 exactly what I was thinking, dude in the fabia just can't drive tho really, both cars with similar bhp but one with more torque, I thought surely the fabia was going to smoke him on the drag race but it just sounded like he sat on the limiter 90% of the time

It's good Sienna got the treatment she needed. I do hope that's fixed the problem and she won't need another 3 million quid.

He wasn't bogging twice. Made me lol that did 😂😂

Yeah but at least anyone can have any power car they want for pretty much any budget

That was my concentration face...😂😂

there is a diffrence when you have 380 bhp in a modern, comfy and refined golf and 380 brake horsepower in old russian lada... if you look at the passenger here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-skG7oJdvuAw.html , he was not sitting in a comfy heated seat, but on god knows what with no seatbelts, getting to 60 in 4 seconds. and yes, also a 380 bhp vehicle, but with rear wheel drive, no stability control, old recirculating ball steering, and tiny amount of noise insulation. even 600 brake horsepower seems boring if it is a comfy refined mercedes, that you think you are going 20 miles per hour, when you are doing 100..

@@garage5125 i get what you mean but i truly think its because every car now has 3 or 4 hundred hp from the get go and tuners and putting out over a 1000 hp on hatchbacks, not supercars so everything is so much faster so 200hp nowadays is like 10hp 10 years ago... you know 20 years ago to get 1000hp your pay a house worth to a tuner and almost no one could even find someone to do it... pretty sure give it a few years and the AA gonna be offering a 1000hp hybrid turbo kit for fiesta's 😅

😂🤣👌👍😂🤣👌👍🥴🤷🤡

Thanks Ben, always prefer a manual, especially with the ZPO shifter!

@@lewmackmedia man that thing looks NOTCHY, would love to get one once i get a mk6 ;))) great build bro!

@@lewmackmedia you had any issues with your golf mate any known faults I’m looking at getting one and again looking for a manual one

@@mirrekku notchy isn't really the word, direct and mechanical is a better way to describe it! So fun to use when driving hard through the gears!

@@Chapaz95 not really mate, they're pretty good all round to be honest. Definitely go for an Edition 35 if you can.

yep

Yes, should be shifting just before popcorn. Popcorn is party trick for showing off rather than hitting during a race

With the size of that turbo the power and torque will all come in a lump at the top end. That's exactly why it's slower actually. Notice in the first standing start the fabia bogs right down and takes forever to hit boost in fucking first! First gear and it has no ability to pull when off boost. I don't understand why you'd want that personally.

@@jamesmx7 TDI have a very short first gear and are usually torque limited so it doesn't get obliterated

@@stumo8681 my friend had a mapped vrs and my mx5 would beat it in a drag race simply because his 1st gear was useless for launching even though he had considerably more power

Skoda jumped all 3 rolls so the golf deserved the win.

that's because the guy on the skoda cheatied... he acelerated way before the cones.

why is the diesel so dirty out of it's tail pipe?🤣

It's because the wheels are spinning, if they shift the wheel speed will be too low and the car will be way outside its peak power

@@Be4tJumper well you dont want spinning wheels

I doubt it that fabia has got probally 10k in the engine bay alone sure the build on that engine was close to 8k

Them vrs are quick but the gti will always beat it on the top end speed. 0-10mph the skoda is very fast.

That golf got the same engine as your S3 - but sure u know it. Got a ED35 also, and fwd is a weak point of that gti...

If you pay tax you already did

Thanks for the comment David, really appreciate the message! Hope you have a great day❤️

@@jackgibson6245 all the best Jack to you and your family ❤️

I love how they don't sound like your old knocky diesel engine no more aswel once on boost

it's hard to beat the big rev range of a petrol engine, diesel's are helped a ton by DSG's etc...

@@gregroles69 no its not hard. You literally saw in the video that the diesel was inches behind the petrol. Its not like it was lightyears away. (excluding that shitty launch where he bogged down)

@@dieselgeezer18 Both drivers had a poor shift game with them.

Lol a mk1 Octavia owner here

@@Dragoninja35 Another MK1 Octy vRS owner in the wild! It's a thirsty boy compared to a PD130 but I like it.

@@shwahn2061 Yeah buddy Stage 2+

@@Dragoninja35 same here

that diesels on fire baby yeah🤣

@@gord6695 yeah but the power delivery sucks. It’s all torque low down with nothing up high like a petrol not as linear power delivery

@@gord6695 As i can see ur not a car guy as well.Its not all about the torque learn urself...

@@gord6695 Yea im sure about that...we all can see :)

@@travisfs7526 it’s power will peak around 3-4k but will drop off at 4.5 but will make good power from 2-4k

Bro deleted the comments lol

I couldn't even see the pipes connected to it

❤

@@jackgibson6245 ♥️

But not diesel like that, they tuned it to smoke so much, tons of unburnt fuel that tune is killing the engine.

@@Arthurroo00 His EGTs must be mental, no good for turbo life that. Anyone who says a big power build has to be smokey aint tuning diesels well so many of these "tuners" about building smokey crap. Bigger injectors, up the rail pressure and reduce duration and you make the same power cleaner and cooler. Mines a Z19DTH only smokes under full throttle from low RPM other wise runs clean. 300 hp 450 ft ibs atm with plans for water meth injection and upgrading to the 2265vklr Should be good for around 370hp.

@@tothethreshold.9965 How do you up the rail pressure on a PD?.. it's not common rail

​@@BillWillshe must be talking about vp's who are common rail (not entirely sure)

@@joaoopiniao1446 VPs aren't common rail either

well if it's tuned correctly it obviously can and this video goes to show that fact perfectly

I can assure you it's as good as it looks!

Got one in my megane they're sick

And last a hell of a lot longer doing it too

1,9 TDIs are actually pretty sporty engines, despite how they sound. also, they are not dying off at higher RPM like many diesels do... new vw engines still cannot match those...

The point of streching the gears past peak power is to get as far into the powerband as possible on the next gearchange..

Also depends on the turbo setup. I had a pd130 with a hybrid turbo it boosted right up to the red line

@@kusz2704 high lift cam power to 5k

@@stacks_producer that doesn’t mean you have peak power to redline…. Boost also drops towards redline

Bro, take a book. Diesel all life, ere the main difference was the gear chances and the diesel hitting too much the rev limiter

@@nicolasp7395 bro. were was that superior torque? 😂

Here in Portugal there are diesel shit like that by tons. actually that skilla Turbos is a portuguese guy. Still diesel cars are a piece of shit, two or three more races and that diesel crap would break like it happens here in Portugal. Petrol all the way

1.9 8v PD vs 2.0 twin cam 16v…. The diesel did well

@@exgtt2061 you think the 16 valves and the 100cc helped the petrol somehow? it honestly is probably because of the less usable powerband a diesel has and therefore the shittier gear ratio. also, a diesel does have its limits earlier because it just needs massive amounts of boost to make serious power. and they cant rev as high naturally. in short, for raw power diesels cant compete with petrol cars. they a little turbo charging to even compare to n/a petrol cars to begin with.

Cash in hand for MOT

Totally agree, I've halved my own Skoda TDI's 0-100 time, yet it barely has a puff out the back, waaaaaaay too much fuel in that tune, just embarrassing like you say. Needs far more air density to counter the "just add fuel tune". Still a fun race apart from the unnecessary pollution.

What’s a MOT?😂

Tbf that fabia probably has multiple maps. Mine was mapped and very rarely put that much smoke out but I had the pd150 engine with map and decat. Nowhere near the work that fabia has had 😂😂.

​@JIGZonYT Multiple maps for sure , any tuner would be silly not to do it if your going stand alone ecu and dyno tuning it just in case you have to have it go over the pits .

the diesel runs suprisingly low mileage despite the fact it can run on used oil, and the petrol ea888 does not have such punch in the low RPM. with those diesels, you can accelerate from second gear like in a truck with no load. generally, petrol engines are better for speed, but exceptions do exist...

The main difference here is the gear box! And the tdi hit to much the rev limiter in all races, I will go with the diesel and I know is faster

@@garage5125 used oil in a pd? 😂 wont last 5 minutes old mechanical pump no problem

You can have a V6 TDI Bitubo with 3XX without any black smoke

@@djp4206 maybe not pd (or commonrail😂) but rotary pumps will. know this from experience, some russian diesel trucks run on oil no problem, only in winter, it was not best to use, as it would turn into solid fat🤣🤣

Thank you buddy and Same to yourself🤞🏼

Ita got a 2869 not 22

@@darylnewbury 2869!! That's a large turbine isn't it!! Fairplay

To much wheel spin i fear, a decent engine management system comes into play i reckon...😀👍

Thanks so much mate

Take care mate best of luck to you and yours 👍👍👍👍

@@twinscrollturbo4410 isn't a bit ironic that we are talking about dieseases, when he drives a car that literally gives oncologic disorders to others?

@@weed46 technically every ICE car does that, arguably direct injection petrol cars way more with their small particles

Stock cars are pretty clean. Of course every ICE car produces particles, but hope you're not trying to compare a clean burning engine with this POS black smoke machine when it comes to give oncologic diseases.

Thanks! Was a close race

Why would I not be chill? Are you mad bruh?

@@rand0mlyrand0m you clearly don't know much about OG as you think

Brake tests are moronic. Just comes down to tyres and on higher end cars aero.

@@PiOfficial Sure - if you ignore: Weight, weight distribution, brake size, number of pistons in callipers, brake bias, size of master cylinder, disc material, pad material, fluid etc. Also a large percentage of cars on this channel are modified middle of the range cars - a brake test those with experience ahead.

@@AK88onCars the only thing you mentioned that makes any difference is weight distribution. Although it’s so marginal that the variation in road conditions between the two different sides of a track will make it impossible to measure. Stock brakes can take more kinetic energy out of a moving car than any road legal tyres can handle. Brake upgrades don’t affect stopping distance all cars basically stop in the same distance when equipped with the same tyres. If you don’t believe me turn off abs and slam your brakes in literally any car ever made at 60mph and you will lock the wheels because the brakes aren’t the weakpoint the tyres are. If you want to see how much weight comes into it check out how friction coefficient changes with loading on modern tyres. It’s a few % at the extremes.

​@@PiOfficial Appreciate the educated reply 👍 Your right (at speeds less then 60mph), but only in a vacuum (figuratively speaking) where conditions are perfect and heat and inertia are playing no part. In your example, you also take that standard breaking system around a track and by the second lap - the effectiveness of the brakes have reduced significantly, and the balance of all those other points come into play. Then, a car with a better braking set up, will show up cars with 2x the straight line performance. This applies equal parts to suspension, tyres, cooling, engine, control systems, etc every part of the car. And I guess that's the point I'm getting to, in your 20's you build cars that are "all gas, no brakes". You then take said unbalanced car off the street, and find on most focus settings, it excels at nothing (personal experience, loony numbers in FWD hot hatches - good fun, but flawed). When you're more of a grown up, you build your car in equal parts, as what you then build is more complete car that does better all around. Life's rarely straight lines.

1.9tdi 8v diesel sir

Not with a massive lazy turbo and drilled bowls it won't

To run those pd130s at that sort of power you have to overfuel them to help keep the temperature in each cyclinder under control

You know it
