What's going on the SuperCup in the near future: :-) Omex 600 and 710, MBE 992, DTA S60, Emerald etc. will all run a 73X F4R fine. Cheers M

The 'Manual' makes no mention of the gasket and advices the use of silicone. I tend to just use silicone, if applied as per the manual I've never had one leak. Cheers M

Super 2000 type inlet manifold kit :-) The plenum is in fabrication today BTW so not long to wait now until you get to see pics ;-) Cheers M

Yes, 230bhp - 250bhp, about £3K. Cheers M

www.jetex.co.uk you want a single ended sleeved joiner then mate. Cheers M

And I've got Pectel maps (SQ6/M and T2) if you win the lottery tomorrow night :-) Cheers M

You can must manage a solid 190bhp on the standard inlet manifold with Cams, low loss exhaust, matched inlets and a suitable ECU calibration. For 200bhp+ you need to replace the standard inlet manifold with something more suitable/capable. Cheers M

Why not just go over and over? Are both sections the same size? Jetex do a load of joiners, step downs etc. on line. Just order one and a pair of clamps. Cheers M

Nice splitter :-) She's coming on now mate! Cheers M

I did a 440bhp EsCos the other day........ that should hold him off ;-) Cheers M

No probs mate. Just let me dig it out . Cheers M

Amusingly whilst I have a couple of places around the UK I spend a lot of time sleeping in cars, trailers and random travel lodges LOL Cheers M

Cambridge/Northants................... and at most race circuits around the UK that are on the BTCC/Britcar calendar. Cheers M

It's only a one man job. I've done quite a few on my own. Helps if you have access to a lift though! Cheers M

If you have to have one then the ITG kit is the best aftermarket induction kit out there. Available in ally or carbon fibre. Drop me a PM for prices. I can sort you some discount. Cheers M

Ouch! Complete lack of oil pressure and fallout in sump or is it something less serious? If its the one I think it is it does have a hard life though ;-) Cheers M

Couple of grand +. Worth noting I've used a brand spanking new cylinder head to remove any doubts regarding valve sealing, head work/port shape etc. during testing. These are over a grand alone. Cheers M

There's an ITG on the way mate to replace it :-) Cheers M

Only for the photos ;-) Masking tape FTW! Cheers M

Oreca carry stock of them and the usual suspects will produce on request. Arrows will do them DLC'd as well if you really want to be flash. The standard valvetrain goes a lot further than people think though, Renault have been playing for the new 250bhp 83X upgrade kit. Cheers M

Did the dancing donkey end up in the glue factory? LOL Cheers M

"Yeah but its got loads of penetration init so its gotta be a good weld like" ;) Cheers M

Load of b****cks. The mixture either lights off properly (resulting in an evenly expanding burn from the plug) or it doesn't. If it's lighting off properly under all conditions and temperatures then you won't find any more power by changing plugs. Cheers M

Acoustic valve is there to meet drive by noise regulations yet still provide some amount of induction noise when over 3000RPM or so. Fail to see how it can be arthur or marther in its sexual persuasion....... Charcoal Cansiter stores fuel vapor from the tank and releases it at a controled rate...

Shouldn't do, both 73X and 83X oil strainers are similar dimensions. 'Black Boxes' are Drivers Side: Charcoal Canister/Tank Breather, Passenger Side: Accoustic Valve. Cheers M

I recognise that engine :-) It's the oil strainer/breather. Worth noting your one will be different as my new lump (above) has an 830 strainer on it. Cheers M

Brake servo vacuum feed. Cheers M

Renault have a 230bhp upgrade kit out and a 250bhp kit is in development at the moment. 230 kit uses the standard manifold. You'll need a management solution though as both kits are being developed for the X85 and C85 on MM SRT engine control. I'd be tempted to see what could be done on the...

Done! Was a PITA though as out of 16 shiney new lifters 4 refused to prime properly. If you've purchased any recently from Renault best to call up and check the batch no with them as apparently one is 'dodgy'. Had to pull the covers/cams and replace all 16 with a set from a different batch...

Not for 428's. Cheers M
