    Ordered Carbon Splitter

    Just ordered a carbon splitter from k-tec. From what I hear some of the peeps on here are still waiting for orders they placed weeks ago! Looks like I'll be waiting a while. White 16" turinis and carbon bonnet next I think!!

    Anyone had GDI tuning on a 172?

    Just wondering if anyone can tell me whether it's worth having it done? And if anyone has had it done, what sort of gains could I expect? Does it make much difference? Cheers

    GDI

    Do you reckon that GDI tuning would make much diff to my 172 in terms of acceleration (0-60 times) and would it worth the money. I know it's alot but the other option is throttle bodies, and I don't want to spend 3.5k http://www.greydevilindustries.com/products/product.asp?id=26

    172 for 182

    I'm thinking of saving up about £2000 and selling my flame red mk2 172, and buying an 05 182. Do you think it's worth it?

    ECU

    Would anyone be able to tell what bhp gains I could expect with an ECU remap taking into account I will have BMC CDA, sports cat and stealth exhaust? I know remaps aren't really that great in terms of gains for non-turbo cars, but it's worth finding out about.

    Car shakes

    when I'm at the traffic lights in neutral, my engine seems to cause the car to shake, sort of like it's about to stall. The revs stay at around 750-1000 rpm when I'm in neutral, I was just wondering if anyone knows what it is and how to sort it??

    Hey, I bought a BMC CDA a couple of weeks ago, but it didn't fit with standard inlet. Received the hillpower inlet today though, so need to cut that down to size and all should be good. I'm just wondering where to get a cool air pipe to attach to the open end of the CDA? and where to locate. I...

    My car whistles...

    I've had my mk 172 for a couple of months now, and ever since I've had it, it seems to make a really loud whislting noise when I do over about 60 mph. I assume it's the wind coming through the seal on the wind-screen. It's doing my nuts in cos I use the motorway all the time. Does anyone know...

    Hill Power Bend for BMC CDA

    Hey, I recently bought a BMC CDA for my ph2 mk2 172. I've heard a lot of stuff about the silicone pipe (hill power bend) and do you NEED one? Or do you just get more out of the cda if you have one? I'm going to have a go at fitting the cda tonight, hoping it's fairly easy!!

    Can anyone give me a step by step guide to fitting a BMC CDA to a mk2 ph2 172. I pretty lame with mechanical aspects of cars, but I want to learn and do it myself! Is it simple, and will it run better if I buy an cold air feed, as it has only come with the air box itself, black tubing...

    Induction Kits

    I was just wondering if anyone has some advice on which induction kit to get, and how they sound on a mk2 172, or whether not to bother wasting the money? I've found a garage where I can buy a Simota induction kit and get it fitted for £98. Not sure it's worth it from what I've heard people...
