Saw one of these in Milton Keynes this afternoon/evening, had weird vinyl paint all over it. Looked quite smart from behind, but rather feminine up front.
The engine just sounds different to normal, finding it really weird, although the camera shake didn't help :D Yeah I've given up with fueling on my map, the dyno we have just isn't accurate enough to get it perfect.
Isn't combe a bad track for clio's, a lot of straights, not many twisties to...
I keep telling everyone this, no-one listens, it also says it in the fuel flap! There's a better way than just advancing the timing in the map apparently. I'm trying to find the table for it, and think I've got it, I'll know later when I take the car for a spin. Also think I've managed to sort...
Well I only did that for myself, obviously you can look at the coolant temp on the dash, so assume the engine is warmed up, I just know that if I hit the limit at 6500, I won't put my foot down for another 3-5 minutes. Maybe get an oil temp sensor gauge?
I'm still learning. Chip/MWM/RS...
Here's the screenshot of my 182 org map
Top half is modified and bottom is the standard file.
I know where the timing is, and I also know where the fueling is. There's one more map I'm looking for.
Do a video anyway, nice to know different exhaust notes, I'm currently looking for one but have a decat, so may just end up with an RS192 because I don't want it too loud. Been there and done that, had a stupidly loud exhaust before,
Had my Dyno training last week, plenty you can do to cheat dynos, not strapping the car down properly is an easy one. I tested it on my clio, strapped down properly it made 180bhp (after map) but with it slackened slightly, it made 202bhp (front wheel goes up onto the front roller)
Even a...
The 1st limit in the map is cold start(Any temperature below 75*c). 2nd one is soft limit, and the last is the hard limit (the limit in all the gears) 7200RPM is standard, any higher and it's been mapped!
Standard file, iirc is 6800 cold, 7100 soft, 7200 hard. I could check it, but cba :D
Should of done mate, ah well, hindsight and all that. Would of been nice to have a comparison though. Thinking about stripping mine out now. Might strip it and leave the rear bench and seatbelts in place so when I do trackdays/santapod I just have to take those out. Any legalities on having to...
14.2/1 with just breathing modifications? wow, and these engines dont really get much in terms of gains from breathing mods either. I guess that includes remap though. I just got a job as a remapping technician, and start tomorrow, hopefully I can get it mapped at work for free :D as part of my...
Yea, didn't see a single other clio 1*2. What were you in today? There was a Golf GTI Stage 1 revo (he said 260bhp) that only got a 15.1, so I was happy with my time :D
