Ask Hughesclio on that one, hes been in mine and Pauls SC 172's and he owns an M3, he reckons his M3 wont keep up from 0-100 but after 100 it will pull back. He took me for a spin in his M3 and I agreed. Also the Clio feels ALOT faster as power delivery is alot more violent! Anyway!!! I WISH...

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 On wednesday I fitted my new steering wheel, Its an OMP Corsica 350mm suede steering wheel with a 60mm dish and a momo boss. It feels sooo much better to drive and with the dish its a far better driving position, alot more racey and comfortable...

What is everone doing after? I will come but I cant afford to eat! LOL! So if your all going for a drive after im up for that! :D

Ive covered 5000 miles in mine and mines running 0.6bar - 260 bhp now. No problems as yet apart from 2 gearboxes so far - in 7 months, but I know someone who rebuilds them for me for £160 - Bonus! IMO drive one and you will want it! If you cant drive one then just a passenger ride WILL...

I welded mine in on my 172. No problems, never came out again!

IMO an LSD is not needed. Traction in the dry is suprising, not much different to traction in a standard 172! Obviously it will make it easier to drive and grip a bit better but it's £1000+ that is not needed to be spent!

To my knowledge in the uk there is: Pauls at RST - Ph1 Mine - Ph2 172 Dannys - Ph1 Adams - Ph2 182 Jons - Ph1 Another from GDI - Ph2 182 However every single one is running different power! To my knowledge Pauls is the only high boost conversion, so far! :)

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 Yup, boost gauge is going! New one will be inplace soon! It's running bang on 0.6 bar as Paul proved today on the dyno. Il add a few updates tomorrow including some new RR graphs from today, the fueling is slightly leaner so power is +++ :)

I paid it! Worth every penny. Had it done at RS Tuning. £4k fitted! 260bhp and 210lbft. Don't regret it one bit, go for it mate, join the 'gang'! Lol

I still have to work another day to make up for it though, But I would rather work a week day than a weekend day! Yeah you should still get a ride ;)

I might be able to make it?! Iv told work I have to go to the hospital that day! Worst comes to worst I can finish at about 12! :D

What did you match them to?

Whats the rest of your reg? Could be my old car! YB52 LVC???

So what car are they for?? Lol, maybe he just doesn't know what hes talking about like most eBay sellers!? Yeah 180-210mm can't be right! Rofl!!

Do you reckon these will be any good? Might have to sample them??

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 OOOOO, does that mean more power?

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 Yeah it's hard to see coz when it's at peak boost the engines also just about to hit the limiter! That's why I filmed it so I could monitor it better! Wonder why my boost has raised by 0.2bar then?

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 Ah I see! What's urs boosting to Danny in this cold weather? Has the boost raised slightly or is it still at 0.45 bar??

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 FTL/FTW what's that mean?

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 My windows are shut! Maybe your car just doesn't sound as good!! ;)

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 Have u got a 3gs? Wonder if it picks sound up better than the 3g? My videos have always been good quality on the 3gs.

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 Ok cheers for that! Il nip down at the weekend and let him have a scan!

Ok fair enough, once this one is done and dusted then il arrange a feb meet! Although my car might poss be in the spray shop in feb! Should be all done in a week or two though hopefully, aslong as I pull my finger out!

I can make it this Sunday, Snows supposed to move down south now so theres a good chance it will be clear! Its upto the people?????

I might organise one! I was really looking forward to a local meet and im bloody working!!!!

+1 Seems as though thats the best weekend for everyone though! :dapprove:

Its ok no problem! Any idea of what time people will be around until?

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 Ah yeah, didnt think of that! It was at about 11:00pm last night this video aswell, it was nice and cold. Its gunna feel slow in the summer then if thats the case. Atleast itl have traction then though! :D I wanna bang it on the dyno running how it...

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 Last night I took a video of my boost gauge. It used to boost to 0.6bar but recently its been boosting to 0.8bar! God knows why? I dont know how accurate the boost gauge is as its only a cheap one but the car feels bloody quick at the minute! Going to...

I am working that whole weekend until 4pm. I work one weekend on, one weekend off. I'm off this weekend, on the weekend after (16th & 17th), off the week after that. 4pm would be fine for me though, it is colder and dark and would be poor for photos though! I can do any weekend sat or sun...
