Drag/Acceleration Kia Stinger 0-60 MPH Times

[Vortex951]

Torks ECU tune has an option for pops and bangs.

Just another reason to get it . I have small burbles but some downshift pops would be awesome

Looking for the last time the list was updated, I went back 8 or 9 pages before giving up. Anyone know when the last time it was updated?

I stopped updating when dragy added a section for kia on their leader boards. All can view by installing the free app.
$150 to play by getting the dragy device at BMS.

My dragy sometimes takes forever to link to the satellites and sometimes never does. Anyone else have this issue or know of a fix? Ive tried restarting the app, moving dragy around in my car, but nothing seems to work.

Is it updating the new list every time you boot up? Takes seconds here.

I keep dragy on my dash behind the display. It takes maybe 20 seconds as it connects to the satellites. Maybe one time out of 20 it won't connect and just restart the app. If dragy is in the background for more than 5 or so minutes it gets angry.

No not every time but it's not the updating the list that's the problem it's after that when it says "low sats".

Yep that's where I have mine too. Mine takes 2-3 minutes on a good day and sometimes it won't connect at all even after I close out of the app or unplug it.

No I didn't because I didn't want to wear down my stock tires too much and for some reason I think my car randomly goes into limp mode if the tires spin too long. I cant figure it out, sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't. Anyone else experience this?

Hey I wanted to point out to To the Stinger group that if your running a sniped car and your experiencing power cutting out after some wheel slip please disable only traction control by pressing that button once. If you do both traction and stability control Like you where going to do LC (un sniped) the car will freak out with excess wheel slip and cut power. I tested this out on the drag strip happened 5 times in a row no mater the map and several more times on the street before i figured out what the car was doing and found out what it didn't want happening. Tried and true now, I can get consistent AWD launches sniped in the 4.3s 0-60 with about 1.78 or lower 60' up to 8000 DA a mile above sea level.

This is very interesting. I hope more try it and that it’s a more consistent option.

Could be something with yours specifically or a satellite coverage issue in your area if dragy's definitions are not up to date.

Curious how these stack up, car is bone stock, for now, and just under 1000KM on it. Canadian GT Limited, AWD.

So your 0-60 looks on the better side for a stock AWD GT limited. Your 1/4 mile is basically exactly where the AWD should be 13.1-13.2 stock. Looks good to me.

 

[Hockster]

Thanks.

 

[NS_Stinger]

Thanks.

I'm actually tempted to say your 1/4 mile is a bit better than it should be. Your numbers look more like RWD numbers than AWD.

Wonder if the LSD for '20 helps with that.

 

[NS_Stinger]

Wonder if the LSD (Limited Slip Differential) for '20 helps with that.

It's possible, but Motortrend could only manage a 5.1 0-60 and a 13.6 @ 105mph out of a 2020 GT2 AWD, and they usually beat the piss out of their cars to achieve the best possible times.

You also have a bit if density altitude working against you... Times would be better with better air. Over-all not too shabby!

It was pretty cool and damp, frost warning went off in the valleys.
