It is so simple to do, you will wonder why you ever worried about it and why renault charge silly amounts of money to do a simple job.

Thats OK m8 no worries. I have put my mobi number on there if you have any problems you can bell me ! Ivan

Nick, I was there, Mods inslude :- 16v back seats, Nitrous tank, 10" sub and ruck sack. 1/4 in 0 secs terminal speed 0mph

Daipac, You have mail.

Lee forgot about that as neat petrol kills the Cat.

No worries, just writing up how to notes... CB

They are 1.15mb all together m8. Plus I will give you a quick run down on how to do it.

I take it VE is volume efficiency ? Anyway say we could get 300% more air into the engine what kinda gains are we looking at in terms of extra power ?

How much would I be looking at to get the car to 270-280 bhp then from standard ?

SO how much does each Bar of pressure on a turbo unit increase the % of air.. EG at 1 bar turbo pressure the air is increased by 200% in the cylinder !

But BenR the initial outlay for a Scooby is less m8, we dont all have gold lined pockets. If I can save over 6k on an import of UK spec then this could be used for tunning !

"haha mate..sorry but..well duh " BenR I am no engineer m8 so I am throwing in suggestions in the hope it might provide some food for thought. My understanding of a fast road cam is it holds the valves open for longer is that correct ?

My only problem is I would never buy a 2nd hand sports car because they have been thrashed but if I could get around 280bhp out of a WRX then this is the one I would go for.

BenR he said when he activated it at idle it became the tractor.. which means the VVT in the 172 is setup for that cam, so maybe the VVT could be setup for a fast road cam ? Im getting the hang of this techno speak stuff

They had P regs ones in York with the Grey alloys on for 12k is that good ? Didnt look at the mileage but as scoobys engines are built like brick sh1t houses mileage isnt so important is it ? well something around 60k anyway. Is that the P reg a P1 model or something ?

Captain does the VVT only work at 1200rpm cause my thoughts maybe if you had a fast road cam thus giving you a lumpy tickover maybe you could re-program the unit that moves the cam to allow for this ? As to the diesel crank didnt you say it was similar or the same as the 172 crank ? Could...

BenR A guy I knew used to do this on a Yamaha DTR 125, he eventually blow a hole in the cylinder

Cheers m8 for the little run down, also sounds like the guy didnt know what he was talking about cause when I spoke to him he said the Pro Drive kit was just body work, suspension and no engine mods. I do like the scooby but as I said power was down. I might reconsider in a years time though...
