I was expecting at least standard :( Gonna have my injectors cleaned and get some new plugs in it I think. It doesnt get used enough so could be clogged up.
Yeah mine did sh*te. Had 147bhp at another rolling road. Car running sweet too.
THink they are about 10bhp low maybe. Mines due for a bit of a service though. Don;t think the rollers were that far out.
Anyone know why my car seemed so low? what should I check out?
I dont think there is anything wromg with doing that to be honest. As long as the holes are drilled before the filter. Best thing to do is run a k and N element. The filter wouldnt make that much difference though. 4 to 5bhp isnt that noticeable really. You might notice it is more responsive...
I think they just do it mate. U got big rims? that dont help. One of my pipes split cos of the extrain strain big rims put on it. My power steering is actually silent now. amazing!
Tell em to get their acts together or you will put in the assignment that they did feck all hehe.
I will be in some of the time during easter i think. got loads to do myself. same boat as you mate.
Why dont you just take a few bits of your 172 and make it lighter, then lower it slightly. Wont be no difference then. If the cup has a different ECU like ive heard people say why dont you just chip yours and then it should be just as quick. Id buy a cup I think myself cos I like the colour so...
Can anyone get me about a metre square of ally sheet? pretty thin, a few mil or something, so it can be bent into shape easily.
Im from nr sheffield. Will pay for it like.
Ok mate. Dunno mate, not seen yours in the flesh yet. Looks tidy on thepics like. Prob will change my mind and get a 172 hehe. They are going for £7000 now for the phase 1s and the phase 2s are as little as £8000 ish now.
Must be comparing mine to my old car. A 1.1 cinquecento sporting lol.
Seems poo to me on petrol but then it is a 1.8 16v. best I have ever got is 33mpg and that was steady driving.
Well Im gonna see this lad tomorrow who painted my boot and roof. He hasnt made a right good job. If he can sort it I might not need it doing. Just got a few bits of lacquer on the roof peeling slightly. dunno what can be done about it. worried it will get worse. Painters never do a good enough...
