if you overclock any pc (cpu/ram) it will have to be done in the bios. Its not too hard to do if you sort of know your hardware limitations and have read guides on how do it. I got my 1.8ghz processor to run at 2.7ghz but im going to clock it down to 2.6ghz as it gets a little hot
I have great fun with mine - plenty of mid range torque and can suprise quite a few cars on the road ;) I get wheelspin in second but I put that down to crappy tyres. On a plus side tuning is cheaper and you can get good gains from 8v engines most of the time and also being an 8v you done have...
Would it cost roughly to stick to either swap my bottom end or to bore out my engine to make it either a 2.0 or a 2.2 8v (if they exist lol)?? any ideas??
p.s and no I dont want to stick a valver or willy lump in or anything else :p
Just need opions really ;) Cars still being done up but wont be touched for another year or so at least now :(. Trying to mod it for performance really. Anyway...
Before:
After:
Had to take the old wheels off as they scrubbed too much at the back.
Nothing wrong with my exhaust (if i'm one of the ones your reffering me to) ;)
I like the dials and the ph3 bumper with the ph2 lights but not really the rest but if you like it thats the main thing
My mate had one (that wasn't legal lol) and he could almost listen to almost everything and transmit too as he used to talk to taxi drivers, security guards, people on walkie talkies, analogue phones etc. Unofrtunatly it got confinscated when offcom radied his home after some companies...
You can get some resonable gains from that engine but it costs money and people say just get a bigger engine/faster car. I got mine to 71bhp before the cambelt snapped. Selling the tuning bits I had in line was a pain aswell just got the 4-2-1 manifold left to sell lol. If you want a power gain...
Excuse the spelling but just want opinions on this as will be getting my car sprayed eventually and fancy a colour change and I dont want a cup :P
So yay or ney??
Just thought i'd start this thread to get more of an idea on everyones car really. Anyway I'll start
1995 Renault Clio Rsi - 87k - Average condition at the moment for the car of its age..
Looks like a nice example :)
Only mods I would suggest is lowering, colourcoding the main bit of the wing mirrors and some rsi side skirts ;). You are right about the black bits seperating the car colours tho
Just had the inlet all matched and head gasflowed/polished up/ported etc. Has given it a nice gain even tho I havent had a remap yet and still have the cat on
Anyone know who does them and where to get them as im not having much luck anywhere :/ I know some guy on here (from Turkey??) owns a Turbo RSI with forged pistons etc
Any help/advice appreciated :D
Found the problem - looks like one of my hoses has split, sending oil or petrol spraying everywhere :/ all of the above has been replaced already recently bar the sump plug lol
