a good remap will smooth out the kick by giving you more torque and power lower down the revs

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 must be right then FPMSL. f**king awesome installation, dont get me wrong, it looks amazing. but WTF, that's the kind of AFR you'd expect with 2 bar of boost on a 500bhp turbo, and it's at near enough 11:1 from 4.5k hahahahahahahahahahaha

as above. Depends how good the mapper is really, and if they know what they should be aiming for

not quite. It's when it comes off lean running. It's run lean fairly high up the revs for emissions, so there's a torque "hit" when it gets the fuel it actually wants

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 LOL. if you say so

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 10.5:1 AFR?? on a low boost setup. f**king LOL

marry me?

Paul "the puppy" Medhurst.... I'd kiss the ground he walks on TBH. that bay is amazing

talk to Andy at K-tec. Get a new contactless TPS, and get him to map it for you

I've seen superb inlet air temperatures with a very similar setup

it's not pisch, it's fact. Removed an ITG panel and fitted a piper and gained 5bhp. ITG panels are restrictive, I've always thought it, now i've seen it proven.

wrong. some are worse than standard probably not a bad idea TBH. better than an ITG that's for sure.

Get a k-tec branded panel filter. Wouldn't touch the others you've mentioned personally

why are you all calling him brad? LOL. Hello Robert Barrington

WOW. that's........nothing like a 197 port

rofl at the stromba feeders

Ronees is Burgandy (naples) and she's the other side of the country, lol

You can, and you can make it strong. The trick is to slow down the cooling to prevent crack propogation due to shrinkage. You need to get the cast iron red hot with a gas torch before you even put the welder near it, then keep using the gas torch to slow down the cooling of the weld. Be better...

that'll need a 12k service, but you may need the coolant changing, and I'd recommend a gearbox oil change too if neither has been done yet

get a silver ph1. shitloads of those!!!! and they're light and raw

oh i'm MANstrating like f**k tonight

Trophys are so massivly over-rated. They're not s**t, they're actually pretty good, but they're not better by the margin that the price tag and the attached ego suggests. I've driven something like 10 different ones, a couple of which I've pushed fairly hard, on the owners instruction. It's...

you should fit the seals AFTER the rocker cover anyway, so you'll just need a new pair of seals and fit them carefully. DON'T push them too far in, flush with the head casting is spot on

oops, should always push the seal in after fitting the cover.

if it's due a cambelt it's no big issue. an hours extra labour on top. has it been done? (should have been at 6 years old!!)

did you notice that the cam pulley seals are different on each cam? The inlet cam seal actually seals on the de-phaser and not the cam. If you fit the wrong seal on the inlet cam it will squash when the de-phaser pulley goes on, seen garages do that before and it PISSES out oil

LOL, I've started to sell off a pile of parts that i'd had sat around unfitted for 2 years. £500 so far from bit's i'd forgotten about.

that's not coming from the bolts, that's coming through the cover to head join, there's just too much

FLOL, elitism over clios

I've spent some silly money on modding cars over the years, but I can't believe the speed people seem to do things!!!! Part of the enjoyment for me is making the most of each new thing, that way you dont get bored anything like as easily and it makes what you've spent in total a lot more worth...
