I wouldnt say boosting was easier.
All you'll have to do is drop the fuel pressure, have a manifold made, install a cable throttle and convert to an ignition only standalone control as the ECU will wonder where half of the injection system has gone.
Mark!
Not only have we both been off at st.mary's....but I also went off at woodcote into the gravel pasting a poxy CTR which had let me past on the back straight!
I bent a front hub though.
Imitation is the greatest form of flattery? lol
I wouldnt get irate about it, its not a specified job to do the whole 'lot', and as with anything on CS that someone says you 'must' do, it seems to have become folklore.
You dont HAVE to do it when you change the aux belt, and only a belt change is recommended in the literature. The kit...
fraid so......hell, there is the chance that you could adj it and loose torque at low rpm and not gain any up top.
If you want it at its optimum you will have to hand it over to someone who can spend a few hours on a RR swinging the timing around to find the optimum curve, and that lot will...
5 questions in 4 lines........some sort of record there!
You can install vernier pulleys without changing the cambelt, but the risk is on your shoulders.
Like I said, the job is essentially the same amount of work as a cambelt change.......with another half hours fiddling to set the valve...
NO NO NO!
You've got it all wrong.
Prototype is in build now, fresh development/test engine is going into the car week commencing 16th March, cal validated and complete circa 20th March, Order book open and first batch in production circa 24th March for delivery ASAP after that date.
Potential depends on the cams your running.
Its easy to put the pulleys on (essentially a cambelt change), but if you have to ask how to check the timing then I wouldnt attempt it. Just because he marked up the pulleys doesnt mean that they will be in the correct position, as soon as you...
lol, I wont even bother taking out the camera until its done.
Its all here infront of me, just did a flow test of it vs's a bare head and it only looses out 1.5% flow peak...........complete ITB's loose more than that!
This weekend?
£500 isnt going to get you much, and thats assuming your not including removal/fitting costs.
There are big gains to be had on the 172/182 head, however application is more important. If your running the stock inlet manifold setup, then any work carried out on the cylinder...
Mini valvers wasnt a bolt on jobbie, it was a complete new cnc manufactuered piece!
The manifold will be everything that anybody needs quite simply, and ironically, I've only been recommending it to customers for the last 2 years. It just took Icarus with the getup and go to do it!
