225-230 is a relatively "straightforward" achievement with a full performance engine build and good add-ons. More than that and it starts getting hard. Working on it.
With a turbo it's a piece of piss
84mm gives 2062cc.
Maximum bore...I honestly dont know without some serious measurement and probably destroying a block. would probably have to involve an x-ray machine to measure bore thickness, or cut a cross section to achieve the same. Cylinders would be getting a bit close with more than...
can go from a 82.7mm bore to 84mm bore, pistons available from multiple manufacturers. a stroker crank would be a lot of cash, money better spent elsewhere. To be honest, it's a 2 litre already, so it's a pretty decent capacity to start with. Better to look at raised compression and cams if you...
not unusual if you're paying instalments, I'd ask for clarification. They're probably asking for the balance of the credit, then will issue a refund. Dodgy way of doing it and there's no need for them to be idiots, but they try it on and people fall for it
there's NO extra charge for the map that's supplied. There's several maps for the slight different engines (ph1/ph2 etc) developed over nearly 2 years. Anyone is free to request custom mapping, for an additional charge, but the gains would be very minimal, if anything.
3 bolts is safe enough on a temporary run around basis, dont leave it like that too long though.
normally easy to just remove all the brakes and get some pliers/grips on the back of the thread and it will wind through, easier than trying to wind it back out
get an Apexi GT if you can find one, amazing systems. I had a blitz on my s13 for 7 days, and paid (!!!!) to get hold of a standard system so i could take it off, hateful thing
we've got mintex F4 pads in our wilwoods. not sure if there's a std clio fitment yet, but they're the b****cks. very similar to carbone lorraine.
Dont touch EBC anything, DS3000 would be better than DS2500 for purely track.
Can't comment on PF, though they do have a good rep
I dont think it's harder to tune a clio than a saxo, just less people believe the pub figures. Things like exhausts and airfilters wont really give power hikes on their own (decat is probably most noticable) but can help with response, and be less of a restriction when you do start to do more...
your discs will be contaminated with EBC compound. they wont work as well as they can with any other compound unless you get new.
We use Mintex pads, 1155 would be good for you IMO
the 600 is quite capable of anything a 172/182 needs to run. 710 would be necessary for anything with more than 4 cylinders or with fully sequential ignition. For example the 197 runs coil on plug/sequential ignition and constantly variable inlet timing, so the higher spec ECU is needed. The...
excessive IMO, though the sadev is a very good box.
plenty of other areas to improve and christ, for the money you can do a hell of a lot, including a proper ECU
