two things, alot of FRST are sold as standard when they have actually been chipped, because they are worth more standard, and there certainly aren;t that many standard ones left, i hate to say it but you wouldnt be getting those sort of power increases from the mods you have done, lets...

i think this is totally pie in the sky, but if someone with the skills is prepared to do it then excellent, but i cant help but feel you would be far better using a smaller turbo charged 4 pot, pinto cosworth or mitsi for e.g, there is an austin healey in CCC with a de-stroked chevy 4 pot and a...

hasnt ben already got a remapable ECU?

wasnt trying to direct any sort of critisme at Brun, He is very helpfull on a loads of subjects, and the points he raises are always of intrest (even if i have been know to take the micky about of his oil fetish) The sad fract is, With Joe gone I will have to go elsewhere on the odd occasion...

I feel this site is not as good as i it used to be, in my opinion this site was best 6 mths or so ago when there was a very large technical content, there were arguments, but they were constructive arguments about differnt approaches and theories to engine tuning, I felt a sort of pecking...

Must be quite something this Backbox of yours, Beware of fitting an induction kit it might make the whole car take off!

only to letch at the prostitutes, i live in a village out near the tyre place, (pucklechurch) does this mean your one of the baseball cap brigade who spend thier time doing reverse doughnuts out side of Burger King? (he does own an XR2 after all!) Im going to meet up with Ben Hume to...

i wouldnt even entertain the idea of owning anything less then 2ltrs, Joe we all know you dont like the 16v/williams (wierdo) what car would you run from that era?

clios are split, the R19s are 1 piece, i used the uprights no problem, no welding for me! cant see what i would meed to weld!?

16v/williams are identical, mines not a viper, just basicaly a big bucket made of sponge, it does the trick though,

from what you have said james i would get the magnex cat back and leave the cat in-situ, but the biggest and the best noise comes from an induction kit, not so much a K&N but get a piper cross, ive got one and its massive, i had an RS 500 one befor that but i couldnt make it fit, i got a proper...

well i went out for a little wizz up and down a little bit of ring road, (ext. temp showing 9 deg for those who are intrested) and on a few fairly gentle exits from round abouts and then booting it i was really astonished, loads faster than my 16v in the same situation, im not sure how much...

half of it is the induction noise, the noise is a deep rumble at idle, and then (unlike when the cat was still in) it grows with engine revs, it sounded better with the cat in IMO didnt get louder at high revs, all this is irrelivant because when you floor it the induction noise is what you...

i was talking rubish, the lower rear part is a pin in the arse, i have tried everything and they arent not playing, i had to use the R19 metak back but then cut the side down and they stick out a bit at the front i havnt finished, as for the door card trims, will be dead easy, just pop them...

the engine is in now and the car has been given a new lease of life, it is everything i was hoping/expecting, effortless low down power, pulls far better in the higher gears, it sounds alot differnt, alot of hissing and whooshing :oops: which i actually rather like, the car is now reaching the...

also unlikley but if the car hasnt been started for a long time the oil runs out of the tappets, and it takes 10-15 mins to get them to quieten down

would you be intrested in a standard 16v botom end? im from near Bristol by the way

i can still get the pilot SX if anyone wants them, they would be less then £50 each, delivered or fitted free in Bristol,

UWE is superior, Bristol Uni is full of ra ras and rugga buggas with thier fingers stuck up thier ass, Sorry Ben H im sure your the exception to the rule!

i dont like any of it! less is more! one day the little RT owners will wise up to this, but in the mean time rejoice in the OTT tasteless "Kits" and "Bad boy" products that are avalible, i did when i was young, and now at the tender age of 21 i now think it all looks stupid, But enjoy it...

im not into the PBV, its adds one more variable, and if it goes better it just means your crudely overcoming a problem elsewhere, but if you had a mixture gaugein car you could roughly adjust the pressure to suit, and i bet "Cliocup" could make one dead easy im not going to take it all off and...

i wondered if they might a bit light at the moment, they are the same as the 16v, say thye are running at 90&% it would take much tuning or a blockage for them to lean off a bit, how difficult is ot to measure flow at the return? its just a rubber hose i assume, not even high pressure
