ball joint splitter yes. 32mm socket for driveshaft hub-nuts.

if he bought it like that and he doesnt know the spec, its probs std! defo bullshitting by the sound sof it.

LOL so was i!

gains would be minimal mate...very minimal. like i said, not much point on a stock engine.

not much point on a stock engine. As Fred said, an engine is controlled by an ecu. The ecu stores fuel and ignition requirments for a given load/speed event. the best way to describe the data is in a "look-up table", whereby for every load and speed event there is a certain fuel/ign value...

if its just for a std build, you could pick some 2nd ones up...ive got quite a few spare for e.g! or if u want uprated items, i can supply Catcams 'H' section rods for £499/set inc high tensile bolts.

if u want to save pennies why didnt u buy a fiat uno....they do 54mpg without even trying.

its what IDG use!

i always take 'em out the top...

pmsl

oh its like that is it?! OK, Catcams from APD! lol

Bens without a shadow of a doubt... To design a cam lobe profile, takes alot of understanding as to what and how you are changing. ramp angles, valve accelerations and forces, nose pressure etc etc all need to be considered, and more importantly to overall performance valve open/close...

i would advise cams/headwork, THEN remap. ur only going to get power hungry further down the line, which will require ANOTHER remap after other work.

bump

paul, im guessing u data-log lambda (on the road) then adjust to get fuelling spot on to give a map file? how do you go about ignition adjustment, or do u just concentrate on fuelling? only reason i ask is cos im going to be offering this service in the future, but when i have my rolling...

spend your money on cams and cylinder head modifications first....

I have the inlet manifold modified, then get a specific remap.

yup straight swap. inc ecu if possible, or remap the 1.8 unit.

that engine power wise is pretty std, so around 150bhp. with some of my headwork, and cams, theres no reason why we couldnt see 200bhp+ on the std inlet manifold. i can fit one that you supply, or one i supply.

u can run a valver box yes. if u buy an f7r with a box ur better of fitting that tho...

i charge £350 for an engine swap. F7R's go for anything from 500-1000. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=010&item=200003417045&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&rd=1

straight swap... only "issue" is if your car is ph1 and the engine is ph2 (or vice versa), the multiplug for the engine loom has a different pin layout----meaning the fuel pump wont be ecu controlled. SO u can either swap looms (plenty available, check www.williamsclio.co.uk) or ammend the...

ive seen it on cyl 3 also....

lol lots have people have spy'd the ecotec. its turned off...matty seamed to get good results from it tho...

....from AP-Developments! spec is: 2.0 16v (megane F7R 714) APD Big-valve (33mm inlet) Head (large port) Kent RN1603 Camshafts (11.04mm/278deg both cams) Catcams cam pulleys Dynamically balanced cranktrain Chipwizards map Supersprint exhaust manifold STD inlet manifold...

Catcams personally...

lol wtf....! FYI there have been several cases of Kents camshafts and pulleys failing with the renault engines. its not just limited to our engines, speak to any old-boy tuner about pinto's etc..... so whilst your corsa maybe ok, and many others maybe ok, there are failures. that is wots...

he understands what he is doing, thats what makes the difference imo. anyone can use a spanner... replied to pm my16vclio

lol midge has been in my van...tis a beast! white van man driving is cool....letching at smart birds, whilst txting on the mobby, veering all over the road and, eating a mars bar :)

lol ben, u knows it.... mine should be back on the road next week also, killing me driving the van... tho it does provide good lift-off over-steer action on the way to work, and give 300miles on £20 worth of LPG, so not all bad.....lol
