Default 50-70: 2.4secs, 60-100: 8secs

Haven't had a chance to get my car on a rolling road, but I think it is running pretty well. To try and get some idea if this is the case I did quite a few timed sprints. 50mph to 70mph in third brought a figure of 2.4secs on most runs, while 60-100 gave me 8 secs.

Are these good times? My car is a 94WRX wagon with TD05 turbo, decat and remap.

Obviously accuracy is not the best as they were done with a stopwatch, but the results were very consistent.

Any comments?
