Is this violins I here coming from the end of the tunnel? :P

yeap... just saved 250€ :)

Couldnt find the previous topic on the subject, so here you have it. Done it myself... dead easy!!! (did I just sound like BenR? eheh sorry mate :P) get it out, weld it, get it in. DONE! http://img2.photobucket.com/albums/v11/Perception/pics/8b668c9f.jpg...

how good are you shifting?

BRUN, assuming your GTT lump is somewhere in the 200bhp, you can go with from 2.25 to 2.5" on the tailpipe. I would say that 3" is too much for a 1.4lts engine. It will kill by a little the low rpm. I wouldnt go any further than 2.5"

TDC=Top Dead Center you cant always trust the knock sensor to do its job... if you could there would not be a ign map with the possibility of changing the ign adv every 500rpm or so and in every load. well.. to get throught this: mesure your times doing 0-60mph and 400mts drag with every 2...

The TDC will r****d? hum... didnt you mean the ign? wow.. 100ctane.. good for turbo cars. :) If that fuel gives you more power than 98 its not because of the octane. It surely be something else that is on the formula when making that fuel. octane ratings only regards to knock resistance...

Well... Im keeping my RT with std engine. I own the RT with 2 bolts air box, so the ecu is not chipable. what will it take to get the chipable RT Ecu on it? ecu+loom+TB?

one afternoon. Dont forget to lub properly the cams and let them bed in first before driving the car.

watch out for camber !!!

144bhp @ wheels is more 160bhp at flywheel I would say.

Talk to BenR. He knows what to do next on your valver.

well.. the RT is getting the GTT lump done and the car is going to be a gift to my girlfriend. It must be fast so that she can keep up with my FRST in sight. :) Ive seen a clio 00 with a valver lump. The owner talked to me about the power steering... I think it was the old 1.9 diesel one...

dont use anything under 10W... go for a thicker oil.

Hi, Since Im giving my RT to my girlfriend, I need to get it going again. She says its fast enough, but thats because she never rided my frst. Knowing this Im going for a GTT lump. The thing is power steering. How to get it on the GTT lump? Anyone done it?

the ecu only checks the mix by the lambda until certain rpm... Ill say above 4000rpm it goes open loop so the ecu ignores the lambda reading beyond this point and just opens the inj acording to the inj map.

valver/willy brakes on a RT makes an huge difference... have done it on mine but I still have brake fading away.... :( Im looking for some kind of air-piping cooling like the ones used on the clio cup racing. well... I know I need to drive slower.

LOL

play safe! CHANGE IT YOURSELF!

Hi phantom RS... what in hell you doing in here?

Pectel is an EMS used alot in highly Ford engines. Never saw one but everyone says its very good! Also it seems that autronic is very good. Actually Im always affraid about engines geting to rev higher than std. They could be highly modified, but... you know its me. eheh

Nopes... still cant find in the first post the steel crank, DTA EMS and fuel rail being bigger than std. but even than.... whatever.

the curve on the fuel rail... seems to "tight". the 180º curve mate... it seems that tonight you are not very friendly.

HELLO HEAVEN! I would just say... what a weird fuel rail! If it does the job then keep it! eheh other thing... 2 litre 16V lump.. what? it was a F7P valver engine and you got on it a willy bottom end? How can you make the willy crank to be healthy when doing 8500rpm?!?! TBs... is the only...

Yes, all the "black magic" of working an head is told on the web. Now... they only say how to work one cylinder, but our engines have 4. I think that the big difficulty is to get the 4 flowing the same. I really doubt that a std head flows the same in every cylinder. Try working a wrecked...

I dont understand you ppl... the louder the faster?!?! ahhh its for the chicks (NOT!!!).

If you want more power than std... fuel consumption MUST increase.

there are two types of BMC-CDA. One up to 1600cc and another from 1601cc to 2400cc. There are also specific bmc-cda kits for many hot hatchs. Take a look at BMC-cdas catalogue for this. Have seen a couple of 172 with a std bmc-cda model (up to 2400cc wich is HUGE) and the fitting is a pain...

go to nick hill...

bearings really in bad shape?
