    Design Ideas, Nick Read maybe

    No Nick, its like this.... you, and many others, fall for the age old crap that has been going around for donkeys years... Limited knowledge means limited understanding and you seem to be suffering that - in many areas.. Tims blistering run is cos he handles the throttle clutch balance...

    P GTI Shootout @ Bruntingthorpe

    Just to clarify ... I meant the optimism on the 5 gtt... or to put it another way.. yes it may be capable of that time.. but could not be run like that for any length of time....

    hee hee, Sylvia, its a simple control box to connect the unit to the pc to program the flash memory in the microcontroller.. did that help lol ??.:) this is not the actual progressive controller, its my generic microprocessor development system for the PIC (Microchip) series of controllers...

    Induction kit for valver- Is it worth it

    Nick, one day you will accept that the ram air effect does not do anything for you.. I take it you are using a fully calibrated instantaneous gas analyser for these mixture readings... ??? or, perhaps a cheapo lambda light jobbie that wont work effectively.. the manufacturer does not use...

    idiots TB question

    Brun, the 400 you quote is misleading m8, sorry.. the base unit is just over 400 plus vat. Then you need a full harness, appropriate sensors, and mapping.. look for nearer 1-1.5 k. Joe.

    idiots TB question

    all you need to know Nick is that a throttle body is NOT a carb or even similar. it is simply a tube with a butterfly valve in it. you would need programmable ecu with it too. as Simon says, not for a grand , no way. The ecu would cost you that with sensors, harness and mapping, possibly...

    How To Look After A Brand New 172

    normally I would recmmend thrashing it when fully warmed up, but, if you are taking such a leap in peformance, then you would be better following the guidelines in the owners handbook for running in and getting used to the car over a period of time. As for the wet.. ALL cars need considerate...

    Aftermath

    Hi Tim.. heres my thoughts.... :) Not sure you will need the forged jobbies at all.. and be careful of considering the cr upping if you intend to run nitrous. Balancing is fine, but unless you intend to rev more - not really beneficial or cost effective. (and I wouldnt like to rev the std...
