    We usually fix the cars where others forget to put them in, so highly doubt it.

    172 inlet manifold PTFE gasket

    Come off it, you dont need someone to make a test washer, just make one that will fit the m6 bolts used on the manifolds. So ID of 6.5mm for clearance and OD of what, say 10-11mm, its just to separate the manifold from touching the head. But then you'll have to make sure the breather...

    420's But he should be making the power he has anyway with a stock engine and all the breathing mods alone.

    Spoke to Mark at length yesterday about the issue, and we could not come to any reasonable conclusion. It is certainly low on power, but maybe its our fault for not checking where it started off initially. Even if the cam timing was off as standard, this would be rectified with the new cam...

    Emerald management

    Emerald is good, and the switchable maps certainly is THE party trick. But most other management systems will do everything else the same.

    172 inlet manifold PTFE gasket

    I suggested it because if your going to do the gaskets because of those contact points, then you might as well do the rest of the contact points. There are no washers as std, but you will need to make some to level up the height of the manifold aswell. Customers will expect it because every...

    172 inlet manifold PTFE gasket

    upper is plenum, lower is manifold/head. The plenum bolts to the top of the cylinder head.

    172 inlet manifold PTFE gasket

    Use in a standoff design like the honda's, F7's and GTiR's is more useful. Dont forget to make PTFE washers under the plenum aswell for the rear mount then.

    I'd have to say someone associated with the veyron. ;)

    Not in this instance. They have their uses in standoff manifolds mostly, but on the whole, i dont like the material that much.

    Not engaging in or instigating a slagging match, I am simply clearing up things for the majorty of readers who are easily swayed by comments which use 'the best' in them. And that goes for any product where sweeping statements are made, you'll very rarely see me saying anything is 'the best'...

    I can appreciate its easier, but the ECU uses air temp, not surface temp to calculate. The contact between air/manifold will change with rpm and airspeed, thus air temp will vary accordingly.

    And the rich kids know better? And they veyron sucks, 8ltrs, W16, 4 turbos and 990bhp....wow. 123bhp/ltr........about the same as an S2000.

    I apologise in advance, and I certainly do not mean to belittle anybody, but this is precisely the problem with advice and internet based knowledge. Schrick simply do not advertise enough data, or more importantly, relevant data for anybody to make an 'informed' decision. Its for this...

    172 inlet manifold PTFE gasket

    Sorry, i just hate PTFE from all the experience i've had with the.....horrible stuff. Fit a water injection kit if your really concerned about increasing densities and efficiencies in combustion.

    Shot blasting or Acid dipping?

    Chemical bath, i hate shot blasting as it makes things bend and warp unevenly.

    172 inlet manifold PTFE gasket

    Should you not be measuring the air temp, as that is what affects air density. Even if you do reduce the actual air temp by a straight 5 dec c, that is an increase in air density of roughly 1.43% with constant humiduty and baro conditions. You will get significant gains by reducing air...

    Removing and refitting F4R head + valves

    no. You will mostly hear an early BE knock as a rattle on the overrun. I.e rev the engine up a on the overrun it'll rattle more than when increasing revs. Cant identify that specific noise. Go set dans car on fire.

    Removing and refitting F4R head + valves

    Thanks for the heads up lol. My point was that if they are solid, then you dont have to release the pressure in them. If they are already empty, then again there is no need as they will pump up. They are hydraulic, you dont need to faff around with them.

    You dont want them squidy otherwise that means there is air in them.
