To an extent, with boost you can use larger port volumes to a better effect as your not stuck with the laws of nature. However people tend to think that boost increases volumetric movement, where it rather increases density and typically velocity stays the same aswell. So you can get hung up on...

nope, it was just a generic comment about larger ports.

bigger rarely means better.

They have also adopted significant increases in CSA acrros the turns, its quite a horribly made manifold aswell lol.

The 200bhp claim is the result of many tuners feeling the need to up the ante 5bhp at a time over the years to secure sales, it used to be 185 odd bhp lol. It happes in all markets.

Precisely, as soon as someone starts barking pure flow figures at you, its an invitation to stop listning. Rapid CSA changes and velocity, including inertial direction interuptions, are all that count. If you want pure flow, install a drainpipe.

The formula renault setup addresses the initial entry angle into the lower manifold, but packaging restrictions apply in the clio chassis (unless you dont mind an unsightly bonnet and . I've played a little bit with the FR setup and for the cost, its just not worth any gains it offers, as even...

I assume he means the 730-738 varients not your 8**'s. I personally find even the 428 slightly peaky on road going clios, they do nothing much until 4000-4500rpm and make 182's feel almost gutless. That is cam only. If you concentrate on the critical restrictions and reasons for this, then...

Depending on the spec you have it in, it'll have as much torque at 2500-3000rpm as a stock engine does peak. Peak torque will depend what output level you want and the size of the restrictor you run (rpm point of peak output will change with restrictor size), but you can be looking at upto...

Nope, i deemed it a waste of time vs/cost.

technically USDM

Deffo a clutch if your going full whack, but we are offering a restricted unit for 100% stock plug and play use.....dont expect more than 230-240 on a stock clutch with decent lifespan though.

I'm thinking about it, its a lot of work for minimal margins. And the last GB just finished.

I suspect our main issue will be whether the customer wants to change the clutch or not.

It will do since the airflow is function of the root of rpm. However, boost is relative and of little importance as an indicator of output.

duped. I've had one come to me to have it removed and put back to standard lol.

And more importantly....wasted time. Anybody going standalone should really know what they are getting into, they are certainly not OEM.

REEEEEMIX!.......sca sca sca scandalous

Then his dad told him to stop playing with his legos and go to bed.

On a 100% stock engine setup, no. Plus you will loose all the factory smooth cold start performance, dash functions and diagnostics. Basically will be worse to drive daily and have marginal to no performance gain over a properly done remap.

Other way around....CSL sounds like a normal m3 driving through a bean can. Terrible noise.

If you are extremely proficient with ECU hardware and software then they can be very powerful things. If you are less clued up then buying a ready to use ECU is a much better choice. And since you posted up, i think the latter choice is better for you.

.....its pure luck the cars didnt hit anything....zero control.

Bumper pops back on in 1 minute flat.

I'm surprised anybody could get it wrong with the big fat arrows on the pistons.

Down to £1600 if anybody can take it off my hands before the end of the week.

Dont quite know how to take that lol.

I'd change them if they were worn/broken/seized, but thats about the only reason. It can be a right b*****d for people not used to the job.

been once and they all drive like girls....not worth the ticket.

fix the oil filter and brake pads then ;)
