leigh mate i think the figures were a bit low like but if u compare the figures with other cars on the same r/r there about right
paddys 172 made 3bhp at the wheels more than mine at re
put them on the road together theres nowt in btween em
same with mats old valver ...........adis
and...
the cooper s passed rhys williams at bout 120
i was giving paddy jon and the golf a good run on the motorway, dont know who else played. adi and jon were neck and neck upto 140
nope, but the cold air pipe was blowing direct feeding the intercooler charger etc so it was getting a good feed. the power figures are always low at john nobles, put it this way jons and paddys made 149 & 152 @ the WHEELS at the last rr day and are both rocketships as people are aware so...

yeah, they never bothering replying, go on about this and that but in the end they get matched/run close by a 1.6 paxo. too bothered about water getting in the door or a squeak from there pasenger door handle
yeah, very helpful, was on phone for ages, same goes with http://www.slinkdesign.co.ukwww.slinkdesign.co.uk who i got the wheels off, its paulo a member of blunt performance group, i phoned him up, we were both on msn so he added me and showed me pics and reccommendations, didnt pressure me to...
yeah, me too, in my opinion the only thing that lets the cooper down performance wise is the stupidly long gearing, stick some closer ratios in there and watch it go, especially the hartge one mid range will fly its fair to say
well, considering the beast was supposed to stay standard my wallets had a bad week, so far iv had:-
jbl front speakers running off amp in boot and cd head unit (already had this lot)
GMC sealed induction kit
GMC de-cat pipe
and the icing on the cake which iv just ordered are some...
xr2 = win (very fun, let hime have this huge rounabout first, set off a couple of secs later and totally ounthandle him up the inside, til in a desperate bit he halved in my lane, so i backed off then smoked him on the straight
second, i was coming home with a boot full of shopping which by...
lol tim, youd miunch me standard, but if i took a lead like i did against that cup at pod with my new mods hopefully id hold a cup off a little longer.
dont know how it works with clios but the first one does the normal lambda sensor job and the socond one check that th cat is funtioning...
mat, apparently the second sensor does a check every once in a blue moon, depends on which software im running so they couldnt tell over the phone. but yes, iv got the option of adding the second one for 15 quid should it not work, what i believe happens is you seal the other sensor up, then...
yeah looks a good time, very similar to my saxo actually, before anyone starts if it was 30-100 it would trim seconds rather than points of a second off my time
craggy
today was generally a sh*t day, one good thing happened tho, i saw a cup racing a sorted cav turbo, cup sounded awesome!(modded)
anyway, going back to the sh*t, i took my car to the dealers today to have a problem looked at, after f**kin about with test drives and inspections it seems iv...
