GDI Clio 172 (ITB'd) VS Subaru Impreza vid

[TheJesus]

Right, here's the link to my throttle bodied Clio that Andy at GDI built having a play against a good mate of mine's Subaru Impreza. Everyone already knows the spec of my car no doubt, so wont bore you to death with the details.

usual Scooby spec:

Apexi filter
Re-circulating waste gate (bleed valve thing)
Full pro drive setup...
blah blah blah
basically usual Subaru spec... it's goes baaaaaarp, tshhhhhhh then makes iguana noises... sounds cool, but you cant hear it at all on the vid.

Before anyone asks, the car noise is mine and yes it sounds like a Scooby on the vid but I can assure you that's me

Anyway, enjoy...

[MarkM]

Looks quick.

But with 5k+ worth of engine work it should.

 

[Harry_manback]

looks like you got a brake light out mate!

5K blimey, looks to go well.

 

[Ali]

Looks quick.

But with 5k+ worth of engine work it should.

5k! Thought it be more than that? Judgin on what another customer spent?

 

[MarkM]

Your probably right 6.5k maybe not sure what the spec is.

It was a bargain it cost less and it works

 

[Big Iain]

hahaha he had chocolate brakes, they really were pishh!

It seems it wasnt u Ali that was lapped 3 times apologies!! ur brakes are still s**t though!

 

[benji&eka]

fast clio, the guy in the scoob can't drive tho *runs & hides*

 

[Gaz_]

the jesus has done it right though, let somebdy else pay for the works....

its the only way i'd buy a set up like this.

love it

 

[Ali]

What BHP does this thing run? 220? 180+ torque?

Was i on track for 3laps! PMSL!

love it

true

you pay out all the money to get the conversion done then the cars worth less then a standard one

 

[MarkM]

What BHP does this thing run? 220? 180+ torque?

I think so.

Does it have head work and a 182 manifold?

nope

 

[Ali]

Not sure. I'd imagine so.

What i can't understand and you've hit the nail on the head Mark, is why spend so much money on the car than sell straight away! Are they undrivable? i can think of a number of members who have owned mod'd cars like this and sold nearly straight away? Curious!?

 

[Gaz_]

looks like this one is running sweet, but like you say surely if you've spent the £££, you'd want the reward?

 

[Ali]

I'd love a blast against a Tb'd car. Stoddie's is quick but doesn't pull away top end above 100! and thats 207bhp.

 

[Tim(e)]

Nice....puts me even more in the mood to convert my V6...any more updates Fred?

 

[Fred@BTM]

yeah my bank account keeps getting smaller! LOL
