well I was popping over to chertsey tomorrow after work probably 5:30-6 ish if you are around? only really need you to give me a rough idea if it need a dephaser etc. also what history did that 65k engine have?

Basically just weighing up my options if mine does need a bit of work doing to it. Not sure if you got my text James, are you around soon to have a listen to my engine see what you think?

I know it will vary from place to place, but how much roughly does it cost to have a 172 engine rebuilt? just to standard spec and would having the engine out make a big difference in the price?

I swear this forum reminds me of a pantomime at times! "oh yes it does... Oh no it doesn't... Oh yes it does" just waiting for someone to shout "it's behind you"

You send them a screenshot of what version the ecu is and they send you out the correct map

Well it seems the main point they are making is the 4 stroke is much slower than a 2 stroke. So why no race them? Instead they race someone that can't drive in a car that has no relation to the bike in question. And then to make it worse the get every fact wrong!

wow that must be the biggest waste of paper ever!! people really get paid to write s**t like that!

Well i had the 075 battery in there at first and the pipe work wouldnt have fitted even with a small filter. this is the filter that is pictured http://www.autosiliconehoses.com/twin-cone-performance-air-filter-air-induction-filter.html fits in fine (063 battery), the diameters are on the...

There is a hose that connects to the standard elbow. Follow that back to the engine, at the back under the distributor. Pull the hose off and put the breather filter directly on the outlet in the engine. Hope this makes sense

I used ASH for the parts. ordered 70mm id 90 silicone bend ( you will need to trim some off throttle body end but it is easy to cut), 70mm od alloy bend, the ASH twin cone induction kit and a breather filter. however with the breather filter i ordered the 18mm id and it is a bit big so might be...

Normally cheap for a reason! but then surely if you can get it for a grand or under you wouldnt lose money even if you broke it?

well i know that the pipe that fits on the throttle body is 70mm id if that helps. A quick note though, there are two different size batteries, an 075 and 063 type. you will need the smaller 063 for this to work.

^^^^ not the best pictures and my engine bay is looking a state, which I am in the process of sorting, but as you can see fits well and was easy to do. Only done it last night so havent taken it for a real run yet.

When a induction kit is fitted on the standard elbow it is too close to the engine and gets heatsoaked, thus sucking in hot less dense air. the Ktec design is good as it is away from the engine, but imo expensive. i just made my own version for £49 will all new parts!

What's wrong with the cliosport one in the membership pack? Wear it with pride!!

Well I think it is either gold, black/carbon or silver. I wrapped mine in carbon cost me a few pounds and 15 mins. Might be worth a try

Quick question, how does the standard top air feed come off? I tried pulling it but did want to break it. Btw I mean the one that goes in the side of the air box. Cheers

Wrong site it's http://www.fastchip.nl/ The new price and unlock prices are on there. Very simple to use. Having said that James Stone is not far from you (staines) and knows his stuff about these cars.

I had a k&n on the standard elbow. Changed to the standard airbox and could feel the was much better to drive. Just brought all the parts for a ktec style for £49 so will let you know how it fits and performs tomorrow

Well the kit new is 180 but then you can sell it on for 110-120 after so works out pretty cheap

I used the RS Tuner and found it much easier to use than I thought. Would recommend it, made the car drive much better.

Did you get near the 13200 quoted for the burg, just out of intrest?

Well just PM me Russler if you want to plug it in!

Can a RS tuner be used to read fault codes with it being locked to my car? If so i am in maidenhead if you want to plug it in? Also there is Stone Automotive in Staines

I think the deposit idea is the best and safest. did the seller say he was willing to wait to the V5 arrives to sell it?

Funk do some lamin x stuff not sure how good the price is? http://www.funkmotorsport.com/products/4567114489/6-x-12-Lamin-X-(Any-Colour)/3066078

Think it looks good on the right colour, mainly silver. What stuff did you use as I am planning on doing mine soon

well I guess I will just wear my crash helmet when I do it!

Cheers for the quick reply Eka, although in my haste I forgot to say it has lowering springs on standard shocks. will this make a difference?
