Apologys if this vid's been posted already http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDHwCWdrtdg&NR=1

Yes but the point is its for ease of recognition. If i said i had a problem with my manifold would you know which part i was meaning? No, of course not where by if i said plenum or inlet you would ;) Search AWT, AP Developments and Jam Sport. They all list the lower part as being the inlet

Sure you can buy mapped ECU's off the shelf from the regular Renault tuning boys? Might be wrong

In the process of getting my Escort restored due to rust suprise suprise and when hunting for parts got talking to a guy who has a mint XR3i. He said the last owner had waxoyl'd it till it was dripping out the chassis legs! Certainly worked for him as the car was totally minted even tho it...

IMO wouldnt downgrade tyres on a 182 rim. Change the wheels with different offsets then it'll be fine

LOL @ square box Its meant to be round mate. Basically same as a ph1 172 but with single inlet not twin

Say you turn it down, wonder if this price is what salvage yards will have to folk out for it too?

Might be wrong but sure the Supercharger conversion is 4k area? Read mixed reviews on the low pressure turbo.

Search his thread mate in projects. Theres tonnes of detailed info on it. Also mag feature in PGTI. Forget headline bhp figures too. I was taken a spin in it running 270 brake on stock internals iirc and words can not express just how quick the thing was :eek::cool:

Better off with a Panel filter than a open type IK

You go in for brake pads and they start sniffing about the throttle cable. How does this work?? :S - Sound dodgy as to me Rear pads are 12 quid from Halfords for branded pads. Not sure what price stock front ones are.

Janspeed also supply off the shelf flanges seperate.

Was thinking the same. Dont they have to be slided along ? :S Badge taking was huuuuuge in the late 80's early 90's - VW badges were massive and slightly later mk6 Escorts were always having the chrome look ''RS'' letters swiped out of Escort

Shouldnt be any difference mate. Have you got the lambda's plugged in?

If lack of ABS meant dangerous they'd be a serious shortage of over 40 year olds.

Thats incorrect. The porting process takes the port sizes behond factory tolerances, ie, to that of the gasket. The difference someone will feel depends how good they are prior to porting. Mapping will see the best results. Its not just about peak power gains, its about ironing out flat...

Here's the block kind. Never knew they did washers lol Some on ebay too...

All they are is blocks roughly a inch thick iirc which go between the hinge and the bonnet to give the raised look. Popular with RS Turbo's to ease under bonnet temps

Unbiased opinions but happens to distribute cat cams haha Have a search on what cams best fit your needs. Not sure where in Scotland would be good to get them fitted. I trecked it down to GDI years back

Sure theres other differences like breather set ups?

I wouldnt split the car. Plenty of boxes and engines flying about cheap at breakers yards. Its the fitting that would be the expensive part if your not handy with a spanner. If your thinking of breaking it, why not turn it into a long term project car instead?

He got the other ones off ok so its probably the angle thats done him in rather than the tools. One slip, thats all it takes and its nut fucked lol

Here it is. Managed to get mine cheaper than that tho http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0000CCXVZ/?tag=cliospnet01-21

Easy, buy a socket set nut removal kit. (not sure of the technical name) Their exactly the same as a normal socket piece but have blades inside. You place the socket on and as you turn the blades grip. The more force the more the blades dig into the nut. You can use a normal spanner or a...

What cams are you meaning mate? Must be something wild as most cams play happy going down the tweeked ECU route MPG shouldnt really be a issue either. Mine happily sits at 40+ mpg at 70 ~ 80 mph with drop down blasts inbetween

Go for silenced imo

I used Homebase although its 100mm. Not sure what other sizes they do but worth a look for under a tenner. Last far better than anything ''car'' related for the job too ;)

No im not wrong. Top part is known as the plenum chamber, the bottom part is known as the inlet manifold. Yes they both make up the intake system as a whole but their both known as seperate items. Inlets = bottom part: http://www.angel-works.co.uk/product_2ltrinlet.php...

Its not so much the fact of a dodgy garage where the cam belts concerned, its having all the correct specialist tools and familiarity with the engine thats key. One tooth out and thats you lost X amount of BHP etc
