Thats the spec I went with Kelv ,ported head, super tech valves, catcam springs,cams and jenveys.
I actualy lost the o ring groove on my jenvey inlet once it had been matched to the head ports :cry:
Hell no not been near ava for about 10 years :cry:
Yes simon that owns sitech and does alot of FRS(ive sold my 500bhp one), but he also mapped my clio last year after i fitted my jenveys, cams and omex.
Im hoping to drop it off at the start of feb for mapping again since ive just built a high...
I think with the seals and a couple of screws from the inside you should bet a good seal on the front windows , I had to put serews in from both sides as my doors are a bit more flexy.
Last time I weighed mine it came in at 957kg with half a tank of fuel, that was basic stripped interior with a 6 point cage and 2seats.
Since then I have fitted a full set of polycarbonate windows, carbon bonnet,gutted tailgate and fiberglass doors so now hope to be around 900kg will weigh it...
Will see how you get on with yours Frazer then you can do mine :D , my airbag ecu wiring is tucked up behind the dash but really need to get the dash out and sort out the wiring and loose the glovebox.
This is a mk3 golf rad as you can see it sits low and covers the front of te car meaning it will get the best airflow possible. Just a shame the power steering pipe will get in the way , electric rack is an option but the saxo pump is a couple of wires and two pipes to join.
would like to...
Is that a MK3 golf rad Mark, looking at the pic MGCup put up of a front view of his car I did think it might have hit. I didnt win the rad i was bidding on so will have a measure up when i get home and see what other options there are , but worst case would be a switch to saxo\ 106 power...
Yes I think a standard style polo rad can be had for £50. I actually used the standard Clio cup rad for the last year and never had any temp issues on track, I'm now going for the larger golf one that almost goes the full way across the front of the car since I've went high comp so may have a...
Think most people use polo rads, or mk3 golf rads but I'm not sure on clearance with the golf one onthe power steering pipe and ault bracket. I'm bidding on a alloy golf one justnow so will hopefully find out soon on clearance, if there is a clearance problem I will switch to a saxo power...
So are you working with Will now James? Be interesting to see some of the stuff use come up with as Will has always thought out the box a bit with some of his ideas.
Re: Road/Track 172
My Clio cup ducts have now turned up after being lost by royal mail .
I also should not be aloud both eBay and PayPal while away with work, somehow I ended up buying oil temp and pressure gauges today which are a good safety.
BUT also somehow ended up with six 15"...
Wayne I got a k-tech center section free with the sports cat i just bought you can have if you want to go with new back box if you want. Needs a little repair to one of the welds.
Re: Road/Track 172
The standard ecu's are mappable but not many people can do it , don't think there is anyone in Scotland. For basic engine mods a RSTuner seems popular and cheap.
Im running omex 600 standalone with jenvey bodies
Depending how far you want to go with it a set of coilovers or cooksport springs to tighten it up a little for knockhill and a decent disk and pad set up for starters then get some track tires and give it a go.
A polly dog bone mount will also help at knockhill for gear changes going into some...
Re: Road/Track 172
Yes I use to have a 911 turbo , I was on FCN years ago but never posted on svag that I know of.
Im over in Norway justnow until the end of the month then only home for 10 days before I have to go to Houston , so don't know when my first trackday will be. I'm hoping to get...
Re: Road/Track 172
I'm running standard shafts and joint and never had any problems, think joints can become a problem if you go to low.
Nope not on any vag sites , apart from my R8 I've never owned a vag.
