I think the cup is purely a cheap option, nothing more... a downgraded, downmarket 172 for people who cant afford the real thing Joe

more than the willy can produce in normaly aspirated form !. hope that helps Joe..

I have been looking into the HP Kit.. and all I can say is...... it WORKS,, its bloody good looking, bloody great sounding, and Nick can sort the fueling out no probs -NB !! needs to be done on an individual basis to suit your car and spec. - YOU CANNOT DO IT YOURSELF. you aint seen me...

sorry, also re the original paragraph re 172 boost.. looking at about 14-16 psi initially, then 20-24 later Joe.

yes, an extra injector could work.. preferably with an electronic controller.. also a boost r****d unit will be needed.. that should help the detonation problems. the larger intercooler willhelp to lower the induction temps and allow higher boost too. water injection is...

oooooops, sorry, you said you needed it when it got to ful power.. ok, mail me the details of how you wire up the pulsoids and also the setup for the progressive. Joe

Hi Nick, that shoulnt be a problem. the simplest way is to use a single pole change over relay. The power, I presume, is fed to the pulsoid and the progressive will ground the other side of the pulsoid every time it outputs a PWM pulse ??. So, if one side of the pulsoid is connected...

A friend has asked me to build them a turbo engine for there Nova, I’m going to do it, but If I do, I want to make it powerful and reliable. To do this I have a few questions. I had a look at two Turbo’d (previously normally aspirated) 1.6 8v Nova’s over the weekend. Neither could run high...

afternoon guys.. wow !, this thread grew !! ok, lets sorta sum up what we know of the 172 vvt and then look at cams in general.. ps Chavvy, I like yer thinking dood !! Ok, the cam on the 172, as Ben rightly said, is already a fast road to Rally spec... Put it in a normal non vvt head...
