    quick Q’s about cup alarm,-please help

    There are 2 holes each side of the head unit, 1 at the top, and one at the bottom. The tools mentioned are like a U shape, and they slot in to 2 holes vertically. Once you push them in, you push each one to the edge of the head unit. This releases the catches on the side of the HU that hold it...

    A question to a Cup owners.

    Check your tyre pressures mate. Noticed my car was very unstable at 60mph+ Turns out one of my tyres was down a bit. It really did upset the handling and general stability.

    80 in 3rd in a cup-cant get more !!!

    Firstly, are you letting your car warm up enough before you do it? Most people here will tell you that the car is limited to 6750 rpm (from memory) until the engine oil reaches a safe temperature. After this point you have the use of 7250 rpm. If your car only does 80 mph in 3rd gear, but...

    decat - insurance

    I dont know who told you this. No CAT on a post-1992 car is an INSTANT FAIL regardless of emissions.

    Best MPG you’ve had from your Cup

    I managed 99.9 in my Cup - it will not go any higher! Go along about 30mph in 5th gear down a slight hill using no gas, but make sure you keep to 30mph. Now reset the trip computer. About 5 seconds later it will start at about 40mpg, then go up and up and up and up until you hit the roof -...

    Selling Cup Advice / Suggestions

    The dealers offered me £9,000 for mine. (52 reg with only 8500 miles). With your mileage I think they would offer a fair bit less.

    WHO S THE DADDY

    No but its just to illustrate that the limiter has been upped to around 7750rpm instead of 7000rpm in 4th (I think this is what it is as standard). The theoretical top speed for a Cup in 5th mailto:gear@ 7750rpm"> gear @ 7750rpm is 158.1mph. The tyres however are rated at 149 mph. Could be...

    WHO S THE DADDY

    The R-Sport ECU removes the lower rev-limit in 4th, and so probably 5th too. This would give you a greater top speed. My car will do more than 120 in 4th gear. Havent tried it in 5th - never will either.

    optimum gear change light

    Because its not an optimum gear shift light, its a warning light to say, "CHANGE GEAR!"

    93octane instead of 98

    Octane boost is very poor. It does not do a great deal.

    head unit for cup

    I fitted an MP70 (now updated with MP80) to my Cup last October when it was 2 weeks old. The sound system warranty is invalidated (which is fine because I replaced all speakers too). The adapter I used is made by connects2 (http://www.connects2.co.ukhttp://www.connects2.co.uk). Check the...

    Cup Issues

    Might sound silly but have you checked ALL of your tyre pressures? My offside rear was badly deflated (around 10 PSI in there!) and when I went round a left-hand bend at a speed I knew the car was easily capable of, the back-end would break loose, but just as you would go to correct it, the...

    K-Tec Racing Splitter - WHEN!!!

    Does the carbon splitter fit the Cup? I need a new one because I caught mine on something!

    how hard is it to drop a 172 lump into ..

    Whatever! They all give 172bhp mate. The fact of the matter is that everyone has relied on rolling roads to estimate flywheel figures. This has been covered time and time again and Im sick of it. Rolling roads are not penis size measurers, they are tuning aids!

    93octane instead of 98

    If 93 is a MON rating (as opposed to RON) then you should be ok using it.

    Lambda

    It supplies a voltage to the ECU detailing the amount of fuel in a portion of air.

    Sony CDX-MP80, have you got one

    I got an MP70 which is near enough identical. Didnt buy it from Renault. It doesnt come with a remote, but if youre clever you can make it work with the existing steering wheel remote. :D
