    Throttle bodies on a Clio 16v

    after decomposing ;) my spare head i found out, indeed the ports, are relatively big, but then - in the area close to the cylinder , velve seat, there is something like a narrower diameter - doesnt it last to speed up the air a bit (venturi effect...)? have you tried to fit a restrictor...

    Different bhp readings...

    the most accurate gear is usually 4 :)

    Different bhp readings...

    as I said in other post (find and read it.) - its crucial to run the car on the same gear. the differences between 2 and fifth are huge. its because you get far more Nm through the wheels on 2nd than on 5th due to shorter ratio. but the RR doesnt know this... the rolling drag is not differing...

    wacky cams or 2litre time

    is it? its not i guess... it has slightly different casing hasn;t it? the gearing may be the same though. but as i noticed in other topic it seems funny - having shorter 1 and 2 while 4 and 5 are significantly longer... You mean that JB3 028 is for williams???

    wacky cams or 2litre time

    go for the 2.0 blah blah... only if finding a 2.0 ltr bottom end was so easy :) can anyone experienced list all bottom ends which fit (or will fit with some effort...). Cause as I read all this You write I think that 2.0 litre bottom is needed.
