I recently bought a brand new Civic Touring 1.5T Sedan (2020) and I'm very confused.
After some tests in a good, plane, and desert Street, I found that my car takes 9 seconds on the 0-100 km, when it should be 7.5. I used a GPS equipment that I borrowed from a friend. 1.5 seconds is a big difference which can't be blamed on test precision.
I had racechip RS installed along with a sport filter and, with the chip on Race mode, I get 6.9 seconds.
What could be wrong with my car when on stock tune? Maybe gas? I use 87 octane. Maybe the engine is so new it still requires more break in? Don't know if that affects the power of the engine. I just got to the 1000 km milestone.
More information on tests conditions:
Elevation: 900 m
Air temperature: 25 C
