Official performance figures?

[H6NRH]

I bought some mitsubishi brochures on ebay the other day, one of them covered the Ralliart range including the VR-4's. I've read through but was puzzled by the quoted performance figures; the Galant Estate does 0-62mph in 7.0 seconds dead and the saloon in 6.9s and the top speeds at 142mph and 149mph respectively. I always thought it was around 6 second or less to 60 and the cars would push on to around 160mph.

Any thoughts?

Mitsubishi were always conservative with numbers...

Test figures are a good bit better.


Top speed is probably right mind, as can be seen from the Jtuner tests.

It could be a reality vs paper time. Can do 6.0s but more likely because of driver do 7.0s. Every cars different it seems, there a guy over here whose car has 2-3psi of boost more than me.

Im just guessing,
