After completing my Mods ( VAP ECU, 200 Cell Cats, Airbox Deletes) I have ran a 9.3 100-200 time in my 2009 4.7 vantage SportShift 1, It was the best of 5 runs. Great result and I’m very happy with this. I was driving with an M2 which I was walking away from. Very happy with this result as it’s as quick as an M4, 991 911 CS, 997 GT3, C63 507, NEW RS5, RS3, M2 Comp and V12 Vantage non s !!
Car revving to 7500 rpm on 98 RON fuel.
Results below.
9.6 Aston Vantage (2009) 517hp
and your car did a 9.3 with maybe 475hp at the crank with these mods? I have the same 2009 Vantage Sports pack with 6sp manual and with the same mods and a new RS3 pass me... I think your calculation are a bit optimistic
I recon the RS3 that pulled on you must of been modded... I have done over 20 pulls with a stock M2 with DCT and pull on it easy every time.
M2 and RS3 are very similar on roll.

I agree that the RS3 was probably modded... nobody buys one of those to keep stock, and turbo engines can eek out huge gains with very little modification.

thats exactly right, with just software tune, can will run and 8.8 Sec 100-200, as oppose to 10ish stock.
