Not on FB. What they saying??

Is there much between them?

The power wouldn't drop on an 02M but it would be overkill just for a longer top gear. If you can cut down on the labour you be better with the dci box but as the ratios are longer it would slow down your acceleration.

No matter what way you go, it's not going to be cheap. The 02M VAG box has been done but it's done mainly for strength and reliability on high powered engines. Getting a longer ratios could be done swapping to a dci JC5 box but on a 182 with standard power it would make it feel slower to...

Most intercoolers will work if you make them fit. I wanted 2.5" pipework with either straight or 90deg ports. The one I got had straight ports but when making the pipework just make it to suit your route.

I thought about using the pulsar manifold too. It makes a good starting point with a lot of the hard word done.

How do the runner pitches match up with the f4r flange. You'll need a custom fuel rail also then. What power lever is this inet rated to?

Is that for a F4R head? Looks a good piece of kit but the injector cut outs on the flange won't meet up with the head. Out of curiousity, does this have flush or raised trumpets?

Very true but a 9.5sec car would still be known. Weather looked far too good to be over here. It certainly shifts anyway and for a 1.3! What power is it making?

Where was that, looks overseas? Not in the uk I guess as a 9.5 second car would be pretty famous.

Good stuff, all the best for dyno time!

Just had a look a their website and they seem to have a pretty good site and products. Have they flow tested their inlet manifolds designs that they currently make and could they test any other design. Is it only starlets they make for currently or do they do any NA stuff?

For most boosted cars, the standard manifold would be fine and is proven to over 300hp. If you are wanting big power then a custom inlet is advisable. I would say a good NA manifold is what the majority will want. There re loads to choose from for Hondas but none for clios since the rs2 was...

Love what you did with the exhaust manifold! The engine bay looks excellent. What did you do for heat management on the manifold?

Also agree on this. With mine, as I was getting the parts made relatively cheaply as i did all the CAD work and design and had an excellent welder in @focrs, the design I went for was the best (bar the space constraints) that I could have. I certainly don't have an f1 budget either. Lol

Good point Mark, the performance on different engines may be negligible. Another well known brand for boosted applications are Magnus. They have also opted for using raised trumpets for high powered evo engines...

Another point that I had a lot of head scratching was the location of the injectors. I read up on loads of conflicting stuff but ultimately the F1 guys know what they are doing. They have the injectors spraying directly into the trumpet parallel to the airflow. I tried to work out a way to do...

Inlet characteristics get very similar on a high boost engine as they would be with an NA setup. I spoke to Scoff about this when designing my inlet and he basically said if you produce an inlet that is good for NA then it will work well for boost as long as it can cope with the pressure. Long...

Skunk inlet https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=skunk inlet...

All F1 inlets, BMW M engines and ones from cosworth, skunk, AMS, ect all have raised trumpets. OEM is purely for cost purposes, not for optimum performance. Why do all these companies and design have raised trumpets if it is detrimental to the flow?

I have CAD drawings for all the parts used in making my manifold but as I intend on reproducing it once it has been fully tested I could give them out. I'll post a picture up which is on my build thread anyway.

After having looked into inlet manifold designs when making my own, now that's its made I can easily understand how it can cost £700. The plenum design is as important as the size and the trumpets should be raised off the back plate and not flush. The air velocity is faster in this area and...

Lol, no its not the ktec manifold I have. I bought it new but second hand if you know what I mean but didn't pay anyway near that. All my pipework is custom 2.5" diameter. I use a XS Power intercooler from a 200SX.

Exactly. Good buy indeed.

Never! :tonguewink:

£65 delivered for a log manifold is pretty good. Only £300 cheaper than the one ktec offer. Lol

Tubular or log manifold?

This is what I was planning but think I'll try something different. Sorry OP, back on track with your project now! Lol

I'm hoping for that but we'll see how it goes. What transmission setup do you have?
