That's why I used a flow calculator. Otherwise it would have worked out as more.
The above example is 15.2% more flow for a 33% increase in pressure. So it's the same as what you're saying... X% increase in pressure gives 1/2X% increase in flow.
If I was to get a set I would want a monotube damper with adjustable damping.
Obviously it'll cost a little bit more than an inferior twin tube setup (Gaz, Spax) but its still not astronomical... http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?714337-BC-Coilovers-(supplied-and-installed-£770)...
You could fit a Bosch 4 bar pressure reg. That takes the injectors from 250cc/min to 288cc/min. Or the Pug GTi-6 had 267cc/min pico injectors, slightly more but not a great deal.
When/If I get around to doing ITBs next year then I'll pop in a 4 bar FPR before mapping.
My costs were:-
Quaife with crownwheel fitted £910
Full rebuild, everything replaced £420
Supply of a 4.07 final drive £120
Gearbox delivery £20
If you can get a cheaper rebuild and already have a 4.07 final then costs will come down a bit
If I had both to choose from it would be the Clio. The Corolla is more grown up though.
The Corolla isn't a bad car at all, its just not as fun. It lacks torque and really needs revving. Once you're up in the RPM thought it goes well. Its heavier and it feels it and it doesn't feel as tight as...
My input has been favouring the Quaife as I have no experience of a gripper but a friend of mine competes in the XR Challenge and will quite happily run a Quaife or a Gripper, he does favour the Gripper for competition though, its a bit more agressive and works if you happen to have a front...
I am in the process of sorting it all out. I'll be getting Ultraleggeras instead :) which I know someone has weighed at 5.7kg. So 1.8kg lighter than the ones I've got.
I bought a set of these in 15x7 expecting a weight of 6.2kg as advertised. How come they weigh 7.5kg?
I know that weight is for the ET45 offset and I've got the ET35 but that doesn't account for the 1.3kg extra.
I'd like to understand where this extra weight is from so I can justify sending...
Re: Ph1 172
Well I am not happy. The wheels turned up quickly and they are all fine but they are heavy.
How they can sell something that weighs 7.5kg when its advertised as 6.2kg I don't know. Where do they find an extra 20% of weight from.
Wish I'd have plumped for the Ultraleggera now.
I'd...
1 litre is enough. I bought 2 last time it was at this price. I fitted braided hoses all round and the system was drained completely. I've got 1 left over as a spare.
Add the cost of machining the crownwheel to the Mfactory one as well, not sure how much that is. Then £900 for the Quaife isn't so bad for an all in price.
My Quaife was £910 with delivery, that included Quaife fitting the crown wheel. Rebuild was £350 + vat but I believe Agency is much cheaper than that.
If you could get a Mfactory one over on the cheap you may as well do that.
Re: My PH1 172
Stunning car! Look forward to seeing how your plans progress!
I had an email from AT Power on Friday I think. They're doing a new Clubman range at a reduced price with and without ECU so I've enquired about them to see how they compare with the Ktec stuff. The plug and play of...
Love my Quaife. Fit and forget, does the job well. Had one in my last car too which is why I went for one in the Clio, don't regret it one bit.
Throttle in the bends pulls it in tighter, gets the power down earlier out of the bends. If you know where to go then you can get them for £900.
