Believe me, the increase is huge when you drive the car. Torque is up 20% over a large rev range, that's equivalent to having an equivalent 2.4L engine.
I would expect the gains from the cams to be substantial as the inlet cam is infinitely variable over approximately 45 degrees which means...
Absolutely correct. Peak bhp figures are almost pointless as they do not show the range they cover. What matters is what the torque figures are across what rev range. The improvements found with this setup are really pleasing and have transformed the car from a bit of an overweight softy to...
It will be one of a couple of things. Ring the office in the morning. We can probably sort it out over the phone. If not how far from our Cheltenham office are you?
It's very easy to check if the ECU is losing sync. Ring our office and speak to Andy Cornock who will tell you how to check. 01242 681044. We're back in Tuesday after AutoSport at the NEC. However a flat spot is normally down to mapping, the ECU losing sync would cause the engine to not run at...
Very much agree with this comment. As it stands it is not very well enforced. However, the authorities are waking up to this very quickly. As far as we are aware it won't be an MOT issue, but it will soon be an SVA (actually the SVA replacement) issue, and it will definitely become an insurance...
Because a clarinet and a saxophone have totally different tuned lengths. They resonate at different frequencies and have different harmonics.
Basically all modern 2L 16V 4 cyl engines are similar in layout so will have similar noise levels. Differences due to bore/stroke relationships and rev...
Why are Clio engines (I am asumming F4R here) different to other engines? Having supplied hundreds of TB kits and mapped far more, there are many methods of reducing induction noise. The F4R doesn't seem particularly noisy on the RR, especially compared to say the Honda K20A2 engine that we've...
Well, here we go again. I must first state that I am not unbiased in this as I am the MD of Omex Technology. However, what I have put below is fact and can be easily verified.
In 1998 an EU directive became law that required all OEM electronics used on vehicles sold throughout the EU to meet...
You leave my Elise alone Mat! Although to be fair until someone manages to find the crankshaft it isn't going anywhere! (It was delivered to an engineering company 2 years ago and now it isn't there.....)
