lol, if they did i'd only produce something a tad wilder lol. Concentrating on 5th order harmonics and the actual operation of the valves, rather than what the cam is doing, has resulted in the torque monsters that are running around at the moment. 30% more torque at a lower peak rpm...

Difference between the std cam and the one your running, duration wise, is very little......its not a wild cam. The gains are made by very very rapid valve acceleration rates, but with a lift curve that minimises valve float and bounce. SO basically your getting the valve off the seat faster...

the kick is just the cams comming on as efficiency starts to gain and inertial ramming starts to take effect with the tiny overlap figures that the engine runs. PM me if your interested in my cams please

omg, i almost fell asleep............. That limiter hero vid was so bad...

pardon? lol

Your on the right tracks. The cam is a normal cam, with a single lobe per valve. In OE trim the timing of each valve per cylinder is a few degrees different to aid swirl and efficiency, but i junk that offset on my cams. The VVT pulley has vanes on the inside, once you reach a certain...

your trying to tell a die hard NA entusiast, i still cant stand turbos........i own one, but it drives me up the wall lol. I just dont find them that interesting, despite their the pros and cons from either setup, i just like screamers. oh, unless we talk about superchargers........now...

yup, basiclly just the short motor, 2ltr starter.....and if its off a megane you will need to use your valver flywheel.

I dont quite think your getting my point, sorry. If i were to spen my days doing easy step tuning on turbos, slapping on boost controllers and sending them off again, i'd literally run into a wall headfirst. The challenges associated with holding VE on a high revving NA engine and...

not when i answer. 'HARROW!!!'

yea, but i'm the one that will get the funny looks when i scream Mr.Blick across the bar.

well, its pretty much setup then. As always, i'm Mr.Yellow.

nice clean motor bud.

depending if your good with your searching/haggling and are lucky to find a seller who doesnt know what they have. ANywhere from £450 - £1000 for complete engine/loom/ecu.

thier pic of the camshaft for the 172 isnt even the type of cam it uses lol.

mines on 130k, still running original components, battered every day and loving it. get a good valver and its quite the workhorse.

single step modification, 2ltr with a mild camshaft change and some port work = more than you will need for a good while.

FI/NA.......its a personaly choice, but find turbos incredibly boring. even a 1000bhp 2jz/rb26..........the method of tuning is boring. They are miles faster, but thats not what i'm interested in.

unfortunately what you want and what a scrappy can get for some rather useless items, are 2 diff things.

bang on the button stu, N20 is fun.....for a while. I used to carry multiple CO2 fire extiguishers in my boot.......and used to go through obcene amounts of gas...............but its off my car now........ Unless your running large shots, its not as fun as people say, and if you do run...

plate types will allow a maximum loss/slip, or minimum torque bias, depending on how its setup. If you have, and most people max their diff as a 60/40 then you wont acheive 50/50 understeer heaven. If you want that might aswell weld the diff solid. And you will carry on driving even with 1...

call clio spares or Specialist breakers. Should be a tenner a wheel.....i wouldnt pay more.

imo, i wouldnt bother with an atb............unless you like understeer. When a diff is always seeking 50/50 torque split, the inside wheel will be pushing you wide all the time. Every one i know who has driven a plate type, the gone to an ATB, has hated it and gone back to a palte. As...

The bis valve is linked to the axle, it increases braking effort to the rear as the rear sits down, i.e. if you have passengers. When you lower the car it artificially thinks that there is more load on the rear and more effort is biased to the rear. THis will cause the rears to lock. To...

boost, dynamic CR, octane ratio, combustion chamber design will all affect static CR. But typically, you have to lower the CR to run any decent boost.

what you will need to concentrate on is the type of tyre your using and its coefficients. Your suspension will be dictated entirely by what your road tyres require in the ways of weight shift to get them to grip at their optimum. This completely ignores handling balance, as that is a...

cable throttles are required to run bodies, you cannot run FBW throttle bodies without some immense computing power. The mk1 throttle setup is better in the sense that you are controlling the throttle directly, in the mk2 the response is rubbish because the computer has alot of number...

they are, you just need to get them align honed.

just need any throttle cable pedal from a post 98 clio, the ITB's linkage should come with their own cable and fixings.
