I had a quick word and he said it has plenty of outputs so if the vvc is controlled by a solenoid simply triggering then it should be fine and using the shift light function is probably the best way.

Thinking about this earlier, we ran 2 Alfa 156 BTCC cars that ran Longman engines with the Euro 1 ecu's, on one of the engines we removed the toca TB and put Jenvey 48's, my old man mapped it. I'll have a word tomorrow and ask what they can do.

If you have all the sensors you need and someone to map it I cannot see why not.

-1.5° will be OK on twisty roads, I think you'll struggle with 3mm toe out but try it and see how you get on.

3mm toe out on road will be all over the place on undulating roads, I ran that on my race car on billiard table smooth tracks. 1.5mm toe out on road car is what I'm using, -1° camber on front. If it's a track car get the geometry set up properly by a race firm.

Have you checked tightness of bottom ball joint clamp?

Who are M.A.D?

Yup it's like throwing a switch

I would run my 888's at 30 psi hot front and rear, it puts them into the 90-95°C range they like to be in, over that and the compounds start to do funny things and it's like driving on ice, under that and they don't make their peak grip. This was in a 960kg Alfa 33 FWD with 160bhp so shouldn''t...

i'm wondering if they can't tell the difference between ph1 and ph2, whether there was a change but the intermoto part is from 2002 on which mine would be - i'm guessing that would be a 736.

I am trying to get an ABS sensor sorted for my ph2 172, the local motor factors is asking whether it is a F4R 730 or 736 model - I do not know the difference. Can anyone help? Search tells me it might be the difference between 172 and 182 or ph1 and ph2 but can't seem to find a definitive answer...

Lol, oops - i'll get my coat. I'm new to these Renault thingamabobs, thanks for the education :)

They appear to be inlet ports, anything of the exhaust side?? Thanks :)

No, a stock head - literally just the area where the gasket sits, maybe showing a little of the port shape. There's an awful lot of the primary tubes that are not being used efficiently due to the shape of the flange ports on the manifold itself, i'm curious about what gains could be made in air...

Does anyone have a picture of the exhaust manifold surface of the head? I'm thinking about porting the manifold and head but would like an idea of port shape before I go do anything daft. Ta Wayne
