not quite lol.

I would of thought some sort of G meter test using rolling starts only.........possibly something with logging and download facility to overlay the results in graphical form.

lol, sadly to 'calculate' any effective answer for you would see months of number crunching and software analysis before anybody could comment on what would be the best direction.......then you would have to trail and error the test. tuned lengths on plenum setups are INCREDIBLY hard to...

Dont think i have that. So who is going to lay down a track and car time we can all aim for.

I've always been against coast down losses as i've said many times. But i'm more annoyed at the wheel bhp varience between RR manufacturers and RR operators.

I dunno....................the 197 chassis pretty much rocks.

I dont get it......... If we can all rely on torque wrenches to do up nuclear power stations......why cant these people get a RR right?

we've said it, and we've seen it.

no, i'm saying that its near impossible to gaurantee the gains we used to see on the 172's. Some 182 owners report a large difference in drivability, some report next to none.

If i were building a peformance engine, the early sport casting head is the one i would use. The bottom ends are the same, but it seems they cut costs on the 182's using the stock production type casting and non CNC finishing them.

Certainly, its getting harder to get a gain on the latter 182's. Where they start with a better inlet and ex manifold, they also start with a cylinder head that has the extreemly inefficient ex ports which perform approx 25% (35% dimentionally smaller and of worse shape) worse on a like for...

what happens if you say the right word?

So was the one i tested. Bonnet open, no filter assembly.

huh?

you complete queerbait.

Why do i need to ask them, any physicist will tell you that it is impossible to measure the only measurable quantity, get it wrong.........then crunch some numbers and come up with a correct answer. Its illogical to assume x+y=3 if you dont know what x and y are. What they tell you is what...

You can ONLY measure wheel HP correctly, i dont see how they can measure wheel bhp inaccuractly and end up with an accurate fly figure.

yup, a 6+bhp gain at the wheels is similar to what you would see at the lower end of the gains scale for these mods. I'm going to go sulk and eat my pad thai.

looks that way :( But if your going to look at things and be overly cirtical, there are several points to look at. -more drag is calculated progressively along the runs, almost matching the 'gains'. -Where the remap adds a few bhp peak torque, the manifold adds correspondinly as much...

Time is ticking, but along with certain issues i've not been 100% happy with, its minor stuff and doesnt affect the overall design, as we spoke about on the phone today. The manufacturers are swamped with orders from the likes of radical and sadly a small company like me has to take a hit...

If you've already got it, we'll throw it in FOC as its only 3 minutes more.

fantastic.......the front lower arms are starting to move a horrendous amount during hard cornering and the wheel shakes like buggery lol. Tim, sadly i do not know any polishers, its not something i really indulge in :(. superfinishing is a special vibratory surface treatment where you pop...

sadly mark, altering that particular area will not only affect overrun fueling, but also the point of acceleration fueling from nill to 10% throttle. It will not make part throttle on/off driving very nice. Decelleration fueling is available in another table, but is only adjustable in a...

weird, when i tested it i lost 4bhp :S

Yes, exchange basis is what we offer for mail orders. A £100 refundable deposit is required and returned when we recieve a usable replacement core.

no, its fine. Check your spark and fuel, got a timing light?

Sorry but we dont polish them, it takes an extraordinary amount of time to polish them unless you have staff who sit at massive buffing wheels or a superfinisher.

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1908065500288838794&q=Top+Gear+audi&hl=en doesnt overly bother me......audis are known to be boring.

I dont like the CSL.......but the new M3 is nice. I'm just saying i like it more than the horribly undynamic RS4. M3 will be more of a drivers car, nothing wrong with facing facts.

you slacken the cam pulleys and crank pulley so you can turn the cambelt round without affecting the timing, so you can tension before you lock the pulleys. If you tension after, then it will move the timing positions like it has on yours. It should still run even if they are a tooth off...
