Slightly lumpy but they all do this. It does rev freely but feels and sounds restricted in some way. Just need to figure out how to get the cat off now. Anyone?

surely this would throw a fault code up though? I was thinking of taking the cat off and driving it to see if it was any better but not sure how this would perform without the lambda sensors in.?

anyone?

Driving to work tonight my car was VERY under powered. I could not get it over 2k in any gear. Revved freely when out of gear but not as free as it normally does. When in gear its very very under powered and judders like its going to stall. Managed to get to a layby and called the RAC. THe guy...

i know that there is something wrong but was wondering if anyone had an idea what it could be from looking at the graphs

the car gets to 5k ish and then doesnt do much else, its like its hit the limiter at that rev range. p.s. what does a ph2 172 non-cup weigh?

Uploaded with ImageShack.us one is ok and the other says its not a fault

the 5k is when it stops accelerating, lol 79kg is my weight ha. James - have you a pic of this? or more explanation of where and what it does? nothing on the faults list either this was in 3rd

What do you think? There is obviously a problem after 5k

Without the remap i get 27/28 driving hard and about 32 if i drive like a grandad The car ran shockingly with the remap so took it off, Henk suggested it was the 1st lambda sensor thats fcuked so was going to replace that and then try the map again.

What was your MPG vs. Driving Style Chris? I want to replace mine as Henk has suggested i do as the map i loaded from him makes the car misfire and judder so he suggested the O2 Sensor (Upstream)

Chris, i bought this car as a fix-er-uper so have done everything else myself so am determind to keep doing everything else aswell. If i get stuck i may give in and get a garage to do it. Just don't want to fcuk anything else up whilst im at it. Still would have thought that the RS Tuner would...

Im guessing that 'fun' translates to 'nightmare', is there anything that i can break doing it?

If you were looking from the top down is it on the right hand side of the manifold or am i thinking of something else? I think i may need to buy some axle stands now lol

am i better going from the top or bottom?

Are they easy to get to? I think im going to swap them round and see if there is a difference. If there is i think i may be in touch for a replacement one NW

I suspect that mine is fault on my 172. I was thinking about swapping the front and back around to see if there is a difference in MPG and performance. I have read that this is ok to do but have also read that the looms are slightly different in lengths. So is the down stream shorter than the up...

what springs are you thinking of? Im sure you will be on with the height but id be more worried about them scrubbing on full lock on the arches. How wide are the wheels?

doubt it, why is it not working?

please explain more

not sure mate, might be better posting the the Fast Chip section or emailing Henk

i think all the free maps on their site are generic maps and you have to pay for a custom mapped download.

anyone else?

any ideas on the second part Fred?

Couple of questions in this, some after the pic. Pleas read it all. Today i decided to look at my spark plugs to see how they were doing. When taking the coil pack and Plenum (sp) off i noticed that the loom only had three wires going to the plug on the coil pack but the coil pack had 4 pins...

expensive then :(

Link swordjo?

You really need someone with a machine polisher to correct the marks. Will take some time doing it by hand. I would only clay the once as the clay is really to remove contaminates from the paint. I have only ever clayed each car i have owned once as the protection i have given it after has...

You were set on the K-Tec's the other day. MAKE YOUR F**KING MIND UP lol Has that lad been yet to look at it?

very nice, love the last pic.
