P.s. retail on the kit will be about 3500 depending on fabrication costs etc.

Nothing wrong with the stock ecu if it's mapped right. Our car was making +-300hp and drove perfect, all on the stock ECU. Also the new engine will be mapped on the stock ECU. Stock ECU is the BEST option where possible.

Seen as the charger is about 1700 now....

Not tried yet, will be very soon. Just waiting for the throttle bodies!

I can answer that. No:rasp:

Our SC 172 sounds awesome. Should be even better with the new engine :)

A plugin box will NEVER give better results than a map. A plugin box bends the signal going to the ecu basically. A remap will customise the software the car is running on and done correctly will make a massive difference.

Superchips 1x2 map = highlight, % and press enter on the advance maps! (vvt on and off same %) My 172 had one on and i found it rather amusing, and no it's not a one off, i have mapped several superchipped cars.

You will see 130hp and heaps of torque on the DCI100 lump.

Nothing to do with me ;)

been honest i can't remember all the numbers but it gained plenty everywhere. Once i see both graphs again i will let you know. Paul

No worries John. We'll get some tests done on the 182 very soon and get a perfect setup.

Let's not speculate. I know where my money would be :)

I'll get some graphs up soon but because i changed dyno's i can't overlay the previous graph from the stock inlet, i am sure Ronee has one she can scan though. Previous was 198hp and with the new bodies from AT it does 230. Fantastic gain IMO.

Good choice mate. We'll be doing some back to back tests shortly but form what we have tested so far on an F7R they are fantastic. Plus the build quality is fantastic.

Wrong :P You get more gains on a 1.6 than you do on a 1x2 in general!

There are always turbo and intercooler upgrades, maybe not off the shelf but anything is possible.

Block is all ready to go now. Just need to take the head off the current engine and send it to ben to do the seats and headwork if he has time :)

Custom map, and of you want to push it look for a clutch!

Usually about a week for a weekday booking and a month for a Saturday.

If it's just to tidy it up and get the fueling right i expect only a couple of hours. If it drives ok as is then £200+ VAT (2 hours mapping on the dyno) Paul

The bodied one needs mapping, looks like it might be detting a bit, too lean to keep things cool.

Glad you are happy John, makes a nice difference on the road :D

I never said a word! I didnt even know you were using a link! Also, there are MUCH worse on the market!

Or likewise is it really worth bodging a wiring loom to fit a cheap ECU that has nowhere near as much control and functions as the stock unit. If you can use stock then it's always better :)

Yes it should be.

tap all 4 bodies and into a chamber would be one way but there will be others. Alpha-N should be possible. Good start that they run and drive perfect with no map sensor connected!

Hold that thought for a while. We are still looking at this and as soon as our 182 is running then we are fitting bodies and WILL get it running on the stock unit some how!

Get one :)

Virgin means ready to pair to another UCH unit
