Well matey, Ive got it in my 172, fantastic system, on mine its a colour display in the place on the normal radio display pod.
Its a dream to use, although I did have to buy a different cd for it so that I cant get over-the-air traffic reports (TMC) which then interactively adjust you route...
hehehe yup, what would people think if they were given N2O (During a medical procedure) and then told they were breathing in an explosive???? theyd probably be very afraid to have a cigarette again LoL
Well guys, here is a bit of my research into the legal position of N2O use on road vehicles in the UK.
Talked to a traffic officer at West Midlands police, and he informed me that a) it was an explosive, b) customs and excise would be very interested to here about it, as you can only use...
Hmmm as far as I know, UniChip is ONLY available as a piggyback unit, thats why it was created in the first place. Now for a genuine UniChip I got quoted about £600 including the RR setup time as well, so it wouldnt be a bad price, BUT I cant help having that little niggling feeling that...
Teady - 12 bhp+ on an N/A car with just a chip would mean that the standard map was being Soooooooo protective it would be untrue, yup youre right, I spent a fair bit of time talking about it all to make sure I was gonna get good results, and Ive been pleased by it (saying that it could all...
Hehe, here we go again :confused:
Nice post Nick, said it all really, but it is NOT, I repeat NOT ILLEGAL to use it on public roads, the only illegality is if you have not informed your insurance company of its use on the road (saying that if you can find a co to insure you using it on the...
Ahem!, teady, hope youre not meaning me are you? ;)
Obviously Superchips can only do so much, but if you just go for their standard uprated map, you cant expect to make as much as a map modifed to fit the cars running ability, thats what London Superchips managed to do with both mine and...
I thought my ears were burning :D ;)
Ok, the gains were not only from superchipping the 172, it came from the freeer flowing k-tec exhaust, Pipercross Viper cold air induction kit and then having the ECU mapping setup to compliment these mods specifically by doing quite a few runs on the Power...
Nick - yup, the N2O is for the strip (whens the first York day were all going to?), gotta be done, no way I could afford a turbo/supercharger conversion yet, but Im lined up to get R/L traction control in feb, and gotta talk to mailto:Dave@K-tec">Dave@K-tec about some headwork, and Im gonna meet...
Clio_172MK2 - How have you decked the back since you took the seats out? have you got an aftermarket exhaust? how loud is it, cos mine was BLOODY LOUD without them in, did you do any soundproofing?
Chris, well, Im thinking of N2O just for the strip, head work and R/L traction control are the...
Agreed guys, VHT paint would defo be overkill on mine, esp. since having the viper fitting, the top part of the engine block (throttle body down to inlets) gets stoney cold, even during summer temps..... thats what comes from having a cold air feed LoL
Eibach prokit are the dogs :cool:
Theyre progressive springs, fantastic ride and road holding improvement, but without making the ride too harsh.
You wont be dissapointed at all :D
Adi - LoL good idea matey :p
As far as insurance goes, if you can find a place that doesnt ask WHAT your performance enhancements are, but instead only ask for a percentage increase (And there are some that do just that) then youre onto a winner.
The other possible hope is an insurance co...
