Who would win here between a Non Type S Acura CL and A 1.8L turbo Jetta.

proaudio22

stock vs. stock?

Amoeba

itll be pretty close.

I would think the CL-P would beat the 1.8L jetta. As I recall, CL-P does 0-60 in about 7 - 7.4 sec. Doesnt the 1.8L jetta does it in 7.8-9 sec?

RevilosCL

yeah stock vs stock

chungkopi

how much would AEM CAI help? just curious.

starboy

The Jetta would win if it's the turbo one.

my buddy has a 2001 1.8T A4 and my CL spanks it all the time...I have exhaust and intake...but also about 500 lbs worth of junk in the trunk.

0-60 Times
Jetta 1.8T = 7.7 (M), 8.9 (A)
Jetta VR6 (2.8L) = 7.8 (M)
3.0CL = 7.6 (A)
3.2CL = 7.2 (A)
3.2CL-S = 5.9 (M), 6.7 (A)

Really, none of the Jettas should beat any CL. They could keep up if the drivers of the manual Jettas are as good as the test track drivers.

I am proud of my cl-p, its faster than a stock S. I had a rental which was an S a week ago and my car is faster.

FunkeeTown

so you're saying all you have to get is some headers and icebox to have the clp beat a cls????

2001CL

Not 100% positive cause i havent raced one yet but essentially I think so. I'lll tell you if i go to the next meet.

Well, I'm pretty new at this, but maybe it's the Custom Mesh Grill or the Autovation Racing Pedals... ??? I know for a fact that a cool sticker (ie, a VTech sticker on a Civic DX) adds at LEAST 15-20 HP (depends on the wind direction)...

ferizzo

the CL should beat the jetta. I think a modded CL is about equal to a stock CLS. I'm not so sure it would beat it though.

Ray Khan

stock for stock it would be close if the jetta is a stick with a good driver. They run low to mid 15's stock. With a chip they can run mid 14's. A lot more depends on the driver in the jetta of course.

CLP + header + cai > CLS????


no fucking way.

proaudio22

I can believe that. Here's another for you:

3.0CL + Headers + CAI + Exhaust + Ignition = CLS

Same WHP. Dynos are on Comptechs site.

bigman

Believe it. My 99 Tl with Injen intake, obx headers, full cat back magnaflow exhaust, iridium ik20's, UR Crank Pulley dusts stock type s' all day. ASk Rondog, he has witnessed me destroy many a stock type s. I even hang with his modded S for a lil before he pulls. Off the line its close, until i hit second in vtec then i take off like a bat outta hell. Off a roll i can woop on a stock S rather easily. Especially passed 100 i even give modded s's a run because i can hold 3rd till aboput 125

n00dleboy

But the money spend on the mods why not just get the type S to begin with :P

bigman

Because i had the car years before the type s came out

If i was buying in 2002 i would have obviously purchased a new type s. There were TL's between 99 and 01 that werent type s'.

GoldieAlek

what year jetta? before 2003 or from 2002 they come 180hp before they were 150hp...
i still think that stock vs stock CL would win

GoldieAlek

hummm NO
It won’t be CL-S it will be………….. 3.0CL + Headers + CAI + Exhaust + Ignition

You are forgetting that CL-S engine...has different compression ratio compare to CL-P
Otherwise engine sizes are the same 3.2 VS 3.2(that’s a no-brainer)

proaudio22

Ummm...NO!

I'm talking about my 98 3.0CL w/ J30A2. I know the engine sizes and compression ratios, I was just agreeing with the other poster that with just a few mods, the 3.2CL can be as fast as the CL-S.

I know my displacements damnit! :P

n00dleboy

PUAHAHHAHAHA

proaudio22

Hmm. Your aren't a very smart fella are you?

First, you completely misread my post and call me out on it. I correct you, and now you further insult me. If you would take 30 seconds out of your meaningless life to zip over to Comptechs website, you could see for yourself the dyno results. A J30 3.0CL with the mods I listed above will make approx. the same HP to the wheels as a stock J32 CL-S. In addition to that, a 3.0CL is 300lbs lighter than a CL-S, which amounts to an additional 30hp difference between the two cars. I apologize for not being able to afford your wonderful Type-S car - but you sir, are an asshole. Read the facts before your speak, or one day it will get your in trouble.

GoldieAlek

I wonder how you got so many posts in 2 months on this site….probably from posts like this.
That make me wonder who has “meaningless life” to sit here and post till you turn green and go bananas flipping out on people… Eat a chill pill buddy.

PS: apology accepted.

proaudio22

Fuck you man. I work in the IT dept at my university during the week, so I have plenty of time to cruise my fav sites. You wanna know what topics I post on? Do a search, if you can spare the time in your busy schedule.

Take your apology and shove it up your ass. Then reread all my posts so you will understand when a 98 CL whips your ass.

oops, oh yeah, um dont make me close this thread..everyone behave.....wink wink, nudge nudge

FunkeeTown

i like how we're supposed to be discussing jettas vs. cl's here but because of my dumb question it's become clp vs cls. oh well, carry on.

proaudio22

I didn't mean to misbehave, just dood should have realized his mistake and owned up to it instead of calling me out.

32vv1ll

what if the jetta is a 5 speed?? my friend is gettin one real soon.

proaudio22

Read my post w/ the 0-60 times. Even my 3.0CL is faster (almost even tho) 0-60 than either of the manual Jettas. A 3.2 should hand one it's ass. I'm talking stock for stock here...any mods would have to be addressed seperatly.
