Theyve got an article in the evening echo tonight about cruising, and theyve have got a photo of me in my valver!!! LOL im famous!!! hehe aint seen it yet gonna have to wait til i get home! its on page 29 apparently if anyone has got the paper!
I will be in the future getting some major work done to the engine, but for the time being i just wanna get a few little bits, done, its a base to work from really.
Tom,
Do you have to weld the de-cat on or does it clamp on?
Well i was thinking of getting a hill power chip as ive heard a lot of good things about them, and they are custom from waht i hear to your mods, but id have to fit the chip myself cos its quite far away from me.
Ive also heard people say that they get the od flame out the exhaust now and...
Ive already got an induction kit and powerflow full stainless steel exhaust, im thinking about getting a de-cat and a chip now, does the cat have to be welded on or is it clamped? and what sort of gains should i expect with those mods, i dont think ill get much, but can you feel a difference...
Yeah from driving the car, it pulls really stongly from low down, really nice and easy to drive, i mean it was really close, i reckon to the tonne there was prob only bout 2 10ths of a second in it, i mean his back bumper was level with my front bumper!
I was expecting to still be in front of him, but i dont know if my valver is running right, i know you get used to the power, but it still dont feel as quick as when i bought it. Hes not really one for tuning, hell prob just do the norm, induction and exhaust and that will be it, but you dont...
Well he should be getting 17"s on saturday, so im gonna have to race him again then!!! although i doubt ill do much on the twisties now as ive just had it slammed -60mm hehe, time for work ont he engine i think!!!!!
My mate picked up his RS2000 on monday and finally got the chance to Race/Drive it last night, and i was very impressed!!!! and a bit dissapointed!!! :(

I got the qoute from elephant, they seem pretty good, but they want 1200 to insure my valver fully comp!!! wich i thgouth was a bit mad!!!
When are you next down southend? id like to have anther look at ya cup, at the moment the dealer nearest to me hasnt got one in yet.
Danny how much you paying for your insurance if you dont mind me asking? i should be getting one in a couple of months gonna get rid of the valver! the cheapest qoute i could get was £1300 just wondered if you were getting it any cheaper?
It even says in the magazine that one of the differences between the cup and the 172 is the increased rev limit! surely it cant be a misprint, or something was modified to there cup?!?!
Ive got the K-tec front and rear discs on my valver, and i have to say that the initial bite is good, but once theyve got some heat in them theyre superb
Civic type R nice i dont really like the look of them that much, 306 i do really like but i cant get one brand new, hadnt really thought about the integra, how much are they brand new and what insurance group are they?
