Wouldn't that effect the cars start when its warm as well though?

Yep confirmed, just had mine fitted last friday, its about a days job and the subframe needs dropping, plus you need to bodge a link pipe from the 182 manifold to the rest of the 172 exhaust sytem, worth it tho, hell of a difference!! Just posted a thread about a teething prob i'm having as...

I’ve just fitted a 182 manifold to my 172 cup and it performs amazingly!! So much better!! The thing is, when i leave the car overnight and then start it in the morning (cold start) it takes a while to start, it does start everytime, just turns over more than usual. However when its warm...

I spotted you yesterday in Bexleyheath, I was in the stickered cup remember? It does look much better in the flesh than in the pics, i think its looks good, few more to finish it off i think!!

ah what! Loads of work involved! lol! Think i'll try another route for the air feed now then!

I'm after removing my passenger side headlight so i can feed my cold air pipe up from the fog light. I've undone the bolt on the top to release it but still doesnt want to budge! Are there any other bolts/clips that need to be taken off before it will come out? Cheers in advance

Im not bothered about the power at the wheels, fair enough, with all the calculations you lot have done, 180atw does seem a bit ott, but i was more impressed with the flywheel power, is that just as far fetched? The figure i got of 180atw was told to me by the bloke, this wasnt on paper so i...
