    197 upper inlet with 172 RS lower?

    three different cars on the same graph. the red one with the torque of a honda is a 182 with 197 pistons, rods, head, cams and inlets. the black is a 182 with 197 pistons, 197 cams, 182 head and 182 inlets. the blue one is a standard 182 with group n timing (wasn't meant to be on there but...

    Bit low bit nothing to worry about. Compression test doesn't really tell you much anyway.

    197 upper inlet with 172 RS lower?

    I'd just run 182 head, less messing around and you'll get pretty similar power but with more torque. Think I've got a graph with overlay of both ways of doing it, power was almost identical but with the 182 head made about 20lb/ft more torque.

    197 dephaser is fully variable, 172 is on/off.

    Checking timing

    what were emissions results? map and injector duty cycle readings at idle will let you know if it's close enough to not worry about.

    Cheap air con delete how many have done it ?

    As standard it's more of a 'deflection' pulley but without aircon pump it is an idler in the true sense so is under more tension. Am sure it would probably be fine with the standard M8 bolt but I prefer belt and braces, that way less to worry about!! Pulley is about a tenner and a shorter belt...

    Cheap air con delete how many have done it ?

    Drill the original idler hole and tap it M10, not worth chancing that much tension and flex on an M8 bolt.

    182 Replacement drivers side drive shaft where's the best place to get one?

    If split is small just glue it. Used j&r for years, had one boot that split after short while but fine other than that. Know plenty of people in the trade who use them as well. Only downside if you have a technical queerie they are next to useless!!!!!

    Cheap air con delete how many have done it ?

    Done plenty and not had problems, just make sure belt isn't too long as the front run is quite long and can slap a fair bit if the belt isn't tensioned.

    group N cam timing

    Only want to chop them to try few ideas with them. Think the primaries are longer aren't they? Not actually measured them yet though. Runner sizing helps top end power as well but sacrifices torque on them.

    Clio 162 cut down loom

    mk2 phase 1, not mk 1. you need to run cable throttle with it.

    Clio 162 cut down loom

    phase 1 ecu and engine loom is best way then, can run the ecu on it's own.

    Blowers not working

    you can get a new one for about £30 for a decent make.

    better performance

    acetone works in two stroke engines though, tiny bit and you get decent gains from it.

    better performance

    someone told me if you put an alka seltzer in your fuel it raised the octane rating, the clown was deadly serious about it as well!!!!

    BG 182

    will have a dci box back in it in a few weeks, got given one that we threw in to see how it was with the ratios but it was a piece of shite and the diff shat itself amongst other things with it.

    Which turbo to pick

    don't worry, it's just people,trying to spend your money for you ? will be fine on wastegate controlled boost.

    Which turbo to pick

    Apexi would do it.

    Which turbo to pick

    To be fair, I've said to Gary as well, that turbo is too big, doesn't spool anywhere near early enough and oversized for the power it's making. This is with a genuine 2560 on efi module.
