    Anyone had a manifold match?

    Not quite as much lol. There are several options with the K20, none of them quite as cheap as on the renault.

    Anyone had a manifold match?

    seen 13 with just inlet on stock engine no remap. It did have a viper and exhaust on with nothing else before though.

    Anyone had a manifold match?

    majority of the work is on the lower part, not the upper. phs 1 and 2 172 and 182 plenums are all diff.

    Anyone had a manifold match?

    that sums up about all of the renault sport castings.

    cam upgrades pointless?

    Here are more great vids to explain. http://www.engr.colostate.edu/~dga/high_speed_video/mechanisms/MERC_valve_spring_tests_1000-6000rpm_1000fps.wmv This vid shows how sprigns react as rpm increases from 1000rpm to 6000rpm. You can see the small spring has a harmonic wave passing through...

    cam upgrades pointless?

    typically material quality, design and theory advance, new techniques of manufacture allowing more far fetched ideas. The basic aim is to hold the valve as high as possible for as long as possible, because this means that you spend the most time possible at a lift value high enough to flow...

    cam upgrades pointless?

    i know you werent mark, its just broad sweeping comments, especially from SBD are surprising.

    cam upgrades pointless?

    None, there are no cons. We run mini RPRF (roller path radius followers) which allow alot of load and zero wear with compound ratios because of the rocker ratio changes as lift values change. If an old racing cam designer from the 70's looked at a stock renault 182 cam he would faint at...

    cam upgrades pointless?

    I think someone needs to start thinking about cam design a tad harder and its applications. Ramp fast, hard and as close to the piston as possible, run a stronger spring if needed, control harmonics and use vvt/vtec to its optimum. Gains can be fantastic.

    Idea for second throttle stage

    do a search, i've explained it in detail a great many of times, you'll find all your answers.

    Idea for second throttle stage

    under hard acceleration vvt will already be active.

    nice supercar vid

    you'd be surprised......... i only rolled once during my semi-professional days ;) Besides, brundle is still doing it in the GP masters series..........he's useless......and i mean seriously bad. Alex yoong would give him a right thrashing!

    Opinions please!

    wheres the dishu!!!

    dont worry, he spent his professional career hedge trimming.

    bhp at the wheels

    Officially from the factory they came with 166bhp...joy. As for RR jibberish, its quite simple. 1bhp is 1bhp, mathmatically there is no way around it. And its not very hard to measure either, its not rocket science, you just use a load sensor and a torque arm of a known length........fairly...

    nice supercar vid

    brundle annoys me.............

    clio rally,

    the S1600 has a single TB plenum setup, 1 throttle per cylinder was ruled out about 3 years ago.

    1.8 laguna throttle body?

    you are indeed thinking of the 1.4RT SPi to 1.8 laguna SPi TB swap. There is no such thing for you 1.4 16v.

    semi stripped 172

    you gonna drop the steering wheel angle on it?

    Fuel Choices - Brc 99ron Rolling Out

    i will 100% gaurantee we do not have a MAF.........why? Because there is nothing between throttle body and air filter. Like i said, speed density which uses a MAP sensor. This is placed on the side of the inlet manifold on the offside.

    Are my Valves Bent?

    only when i've got 4mm overlap.
