Good to see Porkie is still keeping to his cheap track car plans :cry:

Looks very nice and making good torque. What comp ratio did you end up

I'm going to be fitting one aswell along with a ALD head as part of my winter mods.

Very impressive figures, will that manifold actually fit in a Clio engine bay and let the bonnet shut ?

Well done Lee and good luck James Im shocked Porkie hasn't had a shot at racing yet.

Mmmm I get home from Vegas on the 23rd so might try and make the 26th.

Nope but they do run and look after some big power cars and rally cars, I'm sure they will be able to do a Clio without problems. The set up on a Clio is similar to a lot of modern cars with no key ways used on the pulleys.

Re: Road/Track 172 Yes Ash I fitted engine dynamics cams when I fitted the bodies.

Very true Chip i know what you mean , I do try to use the same rollers before and after mods to rule that out as much as possible. Yip I meant at the fly somewhere around 180/185 at the wheels I would hope ??

I normally only pay attention to the at the wheel figures on graphs. Spec : super chip , power flow exhaust, matched inlet, viper intake Spec : engine dynamics cams , jenvey 48mm bodies, power flow exhaust , 60 mm trumpets , standard injectors. Winter plans are 120 mm trumpets , bigger...

Re: Road/Track 172 Winter plans are 120 mm trumpets , bigger injectors, raised comp, ported head and a 182 manifold . I am hoping for a real 215 bhp and 170ftlb

Thanks will get it lightly ported and probably look at uprated valves as already have cams and bodies , doing around 180 atw justnow. Have read about the belt tension problem if too much is taken off but also a few people using a bigger idler pulley to sort it.

At what sort of level does a phase 1 head become restrictive ? I've just bought one to use as part of a winter upgrade but will it be worth getting it ported before fitting. I have also read on here about skimming the head for upping the comp ratio a little, bit of a cheap skate way of doing...

Saph was stunning and looked to have a serious spec , the clios are fun but cant beat the big boost hit a cossie gives.

Re: Road/Track 172 Nope I think im going to fit them Gaz as now have -2.5 camber on the front and -1.5 on the back

Good stuff Stu was saying he had an omex 600 and loom so would be an ideal set up. I bought a head from Stu at the weekend so going to get that ported and skimmed a bit to up the comp ratio for a bit more power over winter.

Last time it was on the rollers it was 179 atw , I noticed on the straights I was pulling but need to get more track days in as my lines through the back section were s**t. I also need to get my bigger injectors fitted as they are at 100% at 6700 rpm so have my limiter set low.

Re: Road/Track 172 Couple of pictures from Saturdays open pit morning at knockhill. Car was faultless all day drove it there did 6 track sessions including a couple of 30+ min sessions, changed the wheels and drove home :approve: And since the focus is now sold I got a sensible 330D...

Here is a couple of the ones I got from on track.

Only at knockhill will you get a merc pimping it round track with the roof down along with 600bhp evos and atoms:S

Seen the 205 out on track a few times and did think it was going slow but had go pros everywhere.

Yip that was me in the other cup, was good that there was a lot of clios out. Was first time out in my car since making alot of changes but it seemed to go ok and lasted the day without a problem.

Was a good morning with lots of track time, think I did over 100 miles on track.

Hope to get out on track with use tomorrow, was nearly not going as my mate who was driving my pick up has had to back out .

Re: Road/Track 172 Got new coilovers fitted and alignment done, I've went for -2.5 camber and 10min toe out justnow and will see how I get on with that tomorrow at knockhill. So gave the car a quick check over and loaded up the truck with wheels and tools ready.

No problem Gaz just thought I would throw the option out there ,i have used extreme in the past aswell.

With there being a good few Scottish owners on here would use be interested in having a rolling road day, I was going to see Simon at Sitech for a price. He is based in Rosyth so central and easy to get to for most people.

Re: Road/Track 172 Had a couple of hours on the Clio today to hopefully get it ready for a trackway at the weekend, all the old suspension removed and went to fit camber shims to the rear only to find out it has some fitted:). Fitted a rear tow strap Vented the front bumper This is a...
