Hmmm turbo. Its already got an i.k with it with de-cat, cat back exhuast. It might have cams aswell but will get it rr'd to confirm. As for the turbo... hmmm. Rsi engine is 100cc more then the Volvo lump tho
Just wondering what gains can be had from the 1.8 8v rsi engine really and what work is needed to get the gains and whats the most power you get get from the engine turbo'd or n/a?? any help appreciated :D
As above really. The car I have seems to have more power than I think (might be just me) but sometimes it idles funny. Everything has been checked in the engine tho and it runs fine. Car has a cat back exhaust with no centre box - could this be causing the funny idle??
Or poxy engine in this case :( I can't tell the cause but its either the head gasket or a valve has snapped but either way the car wont run - had to get it towed to a garage last night. Anyway how much does it usually cos to fix a head gasket failure. If it comes to getting a new engine put in...
If you have a 1.2 Energy engine I wouldnt bother with parts as I doubt you will not get much more than 90bhp on it unless you turbo'd it. But if you do have a 1.2 Energy engine you could stick a 1.4 energy engine in it and a 1.6 bottom end from a Megane for a good boost and it will look exactly...
If he still wants to do it after seeing the above pic tell him to use orignal V6 parts. Thing is you will be probably spending the same amount as what a V6 costs getting it right :/
The main reason I like Opteron's is the cheap price (I paid 120 quid for my retail 165) the extra cache and overclockability - my chip stepping can apparently do 3ghz ;) It also saves me changing ram and motherboard lol I'll look into the bios issue I may be ok tho
Im upgrading my Opteron 146 cpu to an Opteron 165 cpu and am wondering what is the best bios to use for dual core processors for the DFI Lan Party Ultra SLi D motherboard??
Also can anyone link me to that Windows xp patch that improves dual core cpu performance??
Cheers???
Nice blue colour with some spoked wheels that looked similer to Turini's in Bexhill. Looked like a cup but prob a blue 197. They don't look bad in the flesh. If they made a 297 version I would prob get one lol
