lol......you only need a tiny bit of grit to start messing stuff up.
As for running in engines, its not about running it in hard but not being a jessie with them.
When running in your aiming to create a good ring seal, thats it....and you WONT bed the rings quick enough without glazing the...
listen to you all.
Tiff is more than likely a massive leap in driving skill compared to anyone on here. I should know, he raced for my father at TOMs in macau.......he had some horrible machinery but did well.
Id be more worried about the dribble that clarkson and his moron mates trail all...
they are exactly the same between 172 and 182.
You can get good and bad uns simply down to the 2 halfs that you randomly get and how well they match up.
THe exhaust manifold however is far less restrictive.
most definately not possible.
You dont need increased fuel pressure at ANY point, you need increased flow capacity, where you should be jumping injector sizing at about 200-ish bhp.
190bhp, sorry, no....never.......
Dont batter it on the RR when its lean as they make most power when...
lol.....if mehdi drives through a 3 foot gorge, then it really has nothing to do with how much preperation i put into making the car submersable.
Really, where has common sense gone.
And no closed airbox is used........why, because the trumpets stick right out infront of enverything.
non adjustable billsteins, unless they have changed this year.
To level the playing field, infact about 2 years ago i offered a group buy on a set of custom coilovers using the Cup racer billy inserts in a custom strut with castor/camber adjustability.....nobody bought any lol.
Yup!
All that fancy octane boost you see sold in bottles is nothing but toluene with some filler, or toluene and xylene mix for the super fancy stuff.
Its not dangerous and F1 cars ran on toluene neat (basically).
You can pickup both toluene (metheyl benzene) and xylene from any chemical...
It replaces the std inlet manifold which is always a compramise of design and manufacturing cost/ease.
ITBs increase the effective efficiency of the flow profile and allow the engine to breath with less resistance. The air has a simpler route to follow experiencing less expansions which kills...
To get the GOOD bodies with proper runner shape and port alignment, you need the 2ltr megane F7R cylinder head.
You can run DCOE based bodies ont he std willaims/valver head casting, but its never quite as good.
All my throttle bodies undergo extensive flow testing and further development...
on a totally std valver, about 165-170bhp depending on how much detail you put into it, which directly affects cost.
