Touch wood, so far (that I know of) not one gearbox failure from any mapped 200 or 220. My old 200 has been mapped with about 240ft/lbs for about 2 years and still going strong.... ??
280ft/lbs, I believe there's rumblings of an uprated clutch setup being looked into/worked on. And again that figure day in day over 2 years, when you think stock IIRC is around 177ft/lbs..
I personally wouldn't use the Airtec intercooler. I've had both Airtec and Pro Alloy and can say from them both being rolling road that the Airtec intercooler had big pressure losses which equated to missing out on approx 10hp. Pro Alloy is a better quality core, and again tested against the...
My 220 came out with 220 pre map and 250 post map with 260 torque at RS Tuning. Charge temps on the OE IC do go high but it has quick recovery rates, but we're talking constant throttle bashing out on track. If you have the RS Monitor on board you'll see how quickly they recover when you back...
Being absolutely honest North Weald is a better location to go more often. Cafe, open parking, get to see some of the planes. I'm not saying Ians place is a no go it's personally what I'd prefer and maybe go to Ians now and then as an open day. It was good to see the unit and what goes on there.
I drove it for the first time 3 weeks ago on a public sessions day. I'm unfamiliar with corner names but what I do know is it was ridiculously over busy! Sending out 50 cars in one session, far too crowded and with people giving it the big one from the off. A shame really as yeah it's a decent...
The Pro Alloy radiator sorts the cooling out if you go FMIC. To be honest with my FMIC the temps did go up but not to obscene levels, you could do a few laps then back off for a lap. The temps dropped fairly quick, it's more the guys living in the far east and Australia that see crazy hot...
Good plan, I imagine I'll be ok. I too need to wash it as it's hanging still from the 1000 mile road trip to Germany the other week. I'm assuming there's food there? I'm bringing my daughter along as she likes cars, and breakfast.... @Sash you about?
PMS have had them made to fit the OE Clio fitment one end and Brembo the other. It really is just bolt on parts bar bleeding the brakes, it doesn't take long to do. I renewed with new Motul 600 RBF brake fluid for trackdays, you need the 16mm spacers for the OE wheels to clear the 4 pot...
You leave your own discs on, it all just bolts on after you've taken off the OE calipers. You'll also need to buy the PMS brake lines to fit the Brembo calipers.
