missfire this time lol! well i think its a missfire. Around 3k rpm in any gear you can hear a bang and the car misses, while this is happening the rpm needle is going mental.
Changed the coil pack so far and that hasnt sorted it. Will change the Leads tomorrow. Then will check plugs but they...
get lots of burbling from the exhaust, when stationary rev-ing it, it bangs and pops abit yeah.
Will get it mapped soon i think :)
any ideas of what power/torque i should see with a proper map?
Bought the ph1 172 a couple of months back. The previous owner kept telling me how it needed remapping to get to its full potential.
The car spec
- Cat Cams 420's
- Open induction kit relocated to behind light
- SS exhaust + Decat
- Group_N ECU unlocked to work with car
Apparently it is...
going to make a couple of cup racer tow eyes but need some dimensions first. Would a very kind person who has one please measure the above bits and the diameter of the bits + the size of the hole if possible.
i will love you long time if you do :D

Just bought some Corbeau Forza seats with subframes. Problem is the seats are too narrow for the subframes? There is about an inch different each side :S
The subframes are defiently designed for clios as they can bolt into the car but the seats seem to be too wide. Do Corbeau use different...

thanks

yeah ive only heard good things about the toyos. The car has got a cage in so it makes it very ridgid which is nice. Next mod i think will be coilovers as there is too much bodyroll with Eibach Proline springs. After driving that for a day my road car feels so tame and i really do not see the...
its got Cat Cams 420's, Group N ecu (not mapped to the car), powerflow exhaust with decat, battery relocated to boot, open induction kit behind the front light, half stripped. Its 183bhp atm but when its mapped it should be around 190bhp with lots more torque.
getting some corbeau forza seats...
yeah thats a compilation of both us driving. Im the one with the thicker rimmed glasses and the yellow helmet. Hes the one with the smaller glasses and black helmet.

its really good, much better than i thought tbh! grips very well on the yokohama paradas and is very predictable. Straight line speed i kept up with an evo up to 100 on the back straight :)

yeah ofcourse :) you can always learn. We had 3 20min sessions each throughout the day. The videos of the incar footage are from the 2nd sessions so we were abit better in the 3rd session.
only way to learn is by doing it :)

First track day today. Was at croft with the RS owners club even though most of the cars on the track weren't Fords lol :clown:. Had a really good day with me and my brother sharing track sessions throughout the day. The car coped very well and lasted the whole day with no faults. The brakes...
ready for track day :D
