They eat clutches

Rock used to be and am guessing still is decent oil. A flush can start to shift and break up bits you don't want moving round the system, sludge from b9ttom of the sump

It's a 4-2-1 so physics says it's better. And it will give gains. Pointless looking at figures though as a pretty much standard healthy car can make anything between 165bhp and 190bhp. I've had them with 197 cams that have struggled to make 180bhp but have still gone like stink and the owners...

Manifold is well worth doing. More to gain from that than matched inlets and bigger body that's for sure.

182 exhaust manifold and throw a decat on. Your enlarged throttle body was a waste of money by the way. No gains from it whatsoever, pisses me off that people who sell them say you will get gains from them.

Best you can do is stick some lucky heather and a four leaf clover in when you build it back up.

Get it stinking hot and drop the oil, not a fan of flushes, seen them cause big problems.

People generally go boost because of costs, £150 for a churbo off eBay, £100 for shitty manifold and that's the bulk of it. Compare that to best part of £2,000 for a rotrex belt driven turbo pretending to be a supercharger and turbo suddenly becomes appealing!!! Watch this space though for a...

Cts plug, normal for it to have a green blank in it that can look like it's had something from it.

no, wera ? https://products.wera.de/en/torque_tools_series_click-torque_wrenches_adjustable_torque_wrenches.html

think i've got the same camera as you?

wera.

just run the plastic upper inlet.

a low boost stock 197/200 engine would be great and would still drive more like an na than a normal boosted engine. just do it properly, no chinese shite turbo, tubular manifold, custom pipework no bigger than 2" and a decent exhaust and you'll be laughing ? i've also got an ly in that's going...

I'd throw tour code reader in the bin if that was the case!!!!!

Must be something to do with rb cars ?

The 14t would probably be a better choice over the 16t. Don't mix and match the upper and lower inlets, needs to be as smooth and even as possible. What's wrong with the plastic one?

probably crank sensor by the way.

mick at diamond is down that way.

wiring to the coil or ecu fault if it's 100% an issue with 2 & 3 all the time.

Anything is better than nothing ?

vvt is to sort the torque losses, crossflowing etc 4 valve heads suffer compared to 2 valve heads, nothing really to do with cold start settings.

even with the rs tuner you're still only getting a generic map though (not trying to be argumentative by the way)

i'd hardly use the word 'fantastic' ?

That's from gt performance in france.

Probably about twice the weight of a Clio and as aerodynamic as a brick so that's probably as good a test of it's cooling capabilities as a session on track? For how good the system is as standard it should cope anyway.

Thinking about it mate of mine has just put a vag turbo engine and box in his shitroen h van and I gave him a Clio rad and fan to use on it, he's been running that without issue.

looks like an injector code to me.

stock rad should be fine.

normally find when they are buggered enough to snap the head when you do get it out it tends to bring the thread with it as well.
