Considering buying a temporary engine for the car, a Ph1 engine with 197 cams i see people with that spec have achieved around 187bhp. is anyone running these with ITb's and Standalone. Would just like a comparison. anything over 200bhp should suffice.
Looks like i'm gonna be rebuilding the bottom end now (but to standard spec + ARP Bolts and ACL bearings)
197 Valve springs - where is best to get them? just to balance up Cat cams uprated valve springs are £144.00 and supertech ones £119.00
ALD are doing the head in discussions at the moment with Supertech valves. (Clio 182 head)
@TonyHunter that is the sort of spec i'm after and your right it is a cheap spec.
ARP bolts typically something that fails on the Clio i'm not wanting much more than standard Revs, just for easy to...
One more thing i forgot to mention. for the minimal gains/reliability of Forged Rods and Pistons (unless an inherit weak point) i'd rather spend the money on a Gripper diff or ATB diff.

I don't want to go silly on the engine as although it is a competition car it is still road legal. seeing as engines are not that expensive (Standard ones) and not a grand sum...
Thanks,

Only issue i've got is i've got an intermittant throttle issue. where it will go into limp mode and hunt around 2500 rpm and only rev upto 3000rpm at WOT. Guess i'm going to have to check the wiring again on those pins
You saint. Thanks
You don't happen to have a picture of the ECU pinout? my eyesight isn't the best unfortunately so may not be able to read any numbers on the plug.
Hi All,
Got an issue with my 182 i'm trying to trace, does anyone have a Pinout ECU diagram or Engine Wiring Diagram (would be handy for another job i need to do).
Where do the 182 CPS wires go?? would rather test them before pulling the loom apart. do they go straight to ECU if so which...
