Im with john to do it properly you gonna need management, megasquirt or somthing more expensive.
Stick a d4ft in it with the wiring, ecu and twingo dash
If its anything like the tce 100 you can blank of the recirc valve to give you dunno valve sound, these cars sound terrible with dump valves though as they have tiny turbo it's more like a sneeze.
No the pipework won't really make a difference, upgrade the air box to an open cover filter for...
the RS192 is much quieter, if your cars sitting on the bump stops its probably rattling of the beam too! car must handle terrible too! stick a set of eibach springs on it with fresh dampers, as the dampers will be shot too from being so low!
this was how I felt when I first got mine, with the 172/182 you can drive them at 75% changing gear at 6000rpm and still make quick progress, but the 200 really needs revved to the beep each gear, I found it was the last 1000rpm between 6500 and 7500 it really came alive, this matched with the...
I prefer how the 197 looks bar the rear diffuser I prefer the 200 item but that's easily sorted. however...
20% more torque low down, shorter ratios in first second and third gear I instantly felt the difference when I jumped into a 200 from an R27 and that's why I settled with it in the end!
Usually mapping n/a engines isnt worth the cash but an rs tuner is on these, probably gain a couple bhp but that doesn't tell the full story. The idle raised (i think its 150rpm) and vvt activated from cold makes a big difference to the refinement and the extra mid range torque is brilliant
I find the game has changed that much now i dont do much traffic light grand prix as average diesel german barge holds its own, i prefer chasing hot hatches in the dci now lol
Standard vs standard in my experience, CTR will pull a car length or so on you, you will pull a car length on a corsa vxr, and pull a couple on a fiesta st 150 or focus st170
would be awesome if Henk @Fastchip could offer a map for this with the rstuner so you could order the kit along with an rstuner and do the full installation yourself, fit>upload map>go blasting!
Seems about right my pair were never any better than a 172 on fuel, very short gear ratios on them, my mates mk3 clio was better on fuel than mine, which is odd as with the dci and rs the clio 3 was worse than the clio 2
Drive them off boost and they are about the same on fuel as a 1.2 16v but...
