I suppose I will have to add a bit lol :devilish: These rip off merchants make their money by convincing guillable people to try something and offer a money back refund that hardly anyone takes - They just bin it... Nick m8, the best advice is... DONT BOTHER, DONT TRY IT, DONT FALL FOR THE...

to add to that, it may be that the phaser is not actuating at high rpm, high oil pressure etc.. Joe.

Hi Chavvs, good thinking, but it would not tell the story properly problem is, even if it shows a load, that does not mean that the solenoid plunger is lifting properly, or, that the oilways are clear, or, that the phasing device is working. The phasing device works from oil pressure from...

Hi Guys, Ben is correct, you can unplug it and try it. On mine, it made absolutely no discernable difference, that is worrying. I have hooked a multimeter to the unit and can see the signal being applied, it also appears to work at idle as forcing activation at idle caused tractor mode...

Brun, Hi M8 I have also spoken to Luke and he definitely is interested in following, and publishing the results. Let me spell this out to otheres that may be unsure... I have a lot of respect for RE rollers. but............. the figures for the 172s are CRAZY and are NOT to be...

Do any of you guys with idle problems have an Ecotek performance decreasing valve fitted ?? Just a thought.. Joe.

Simon, I would replace the ecu with the std and try it then. Dont let reno service it with the gpn item in place. yes, they can overwite it completely. Can you get another for a Mk2 as I am interested in the fact that it bypasses the raid device (Reno Anti Intruder Device). Joe.

Hi Scudetto m8. Cant say I have any probs with torque steer at all on the 172. Might be worth checking the tracking and tyre pressures. The suspesion mods will improve turn, response and feel, I am woring on a set of exchange modifyed bottom suspension arms at the mo, will let u know...

First, for me, puppy is plenty fast enough, so not into chipping it etc (yet...). I dont want it to go any faster, but I would like to sharpen up some other things and I wondered what you thought about these performance upgrades: 1) A clutch that works. When accelerating hard and changing...

Mike, the way to approach it in the first instance is to (imho) remove the 29F400 rom and read it. replace it with a socket and after copying the rom, put that in the socket. now you need to run map locating software on it (Which I happen to have ) and attempt to lcate the main maps and...

Naive.. (As in Evian Water spelt backwards lol.. Its not simply a matter of comms protocol, it will be std rs232, I can give you the data in and data out lines no probs... what are you gonna do with the results ??.. it aint gonna talk or give a menu to assist you. Its a matter of sending...

NO !!!!! the 0.8 figure is NOT accurate, it is a simple guide. there are so many variables to rolling resistance that you cannot use a set figure. The only figure that matters is the one at the wheels.. dont get carried away with inflated or guesstimate figures. Joe.

hmmmmm. Flushing oil has been around for donys years, so has injector cleaner, so have emulsifiers. none will make any difference to any times on anything that is already running as it should.. you could always try an ecotoec Cs.

Hi Guys, until further info is obtained re the differences in power figures of the 172s. It is not possible to say that any exhayst made any difference at all. Joe.

no. Joe..

Back on topic hopefully now yes, RT, the more the merrier, but it needs to be a controlled experiment. Paddy, Brun, RT ??.. if you are up for it, so am I.. Brun, if so, can you get your contact at PGti and see if he is interested ?. His car would be useful too. As said before, there...
