So, without being rude, you've given advise based on hearsay, which is probably based on exactly as much experience as you've had on the subject, so founded in nothing.
I've used PI personally for over a decade on many of my own cars
eh? that's not even almost true. The lower RS stamped manifold is better, but the upper is just as poor as the earlier ones, and they're certainly nothing like matched from the factory. I've never even heard that as a rumour before so I've no idea where you got that little treasure from.
the loom plugs are going on for £200 for that alone!! then there's the 100+ hours of development time with world class CANbus engineers thats made it possible. Yes life's free. LOL
Can't believe the comparison to a powerFC has been made. That's essentially a hacked stock ECU for most...
they're right, but for the hastle of doing it, the engine needs to be out already. It is a better manifold definitely, but the 172 one is still very good
you're not a million miles from the truth, but there is still a difference. Compare cams alone, or ITB's alone and ITB's do just edge it (for response and capability lower down the revs), but both together and it's something else.
never had a problem, but I slow down. I still maintain that saying a T1R is bad means you've not had the horror of an actually bad tyre. It's certainly no rainsport, I'll give you that
not even in the same price bracket surely? Pzero is an amazing performance tyre with a price tag to match, T1R is a very cost effective hi-mid range tyre for less money than it could probably justify.
If you'd said Pirelli P6000 or T1R then the T1R would win hands down
I'll do anything like this if asked. I do bespoke one off far better than kits though so offering something so specific doesn't really work for me. I'll discuss anything with anyone who wants anything done!!
