    Huge Problem with Cup :-(

    Youve got a CUP so it must still be under warranty so go straight to the dealer, dont let anyone else touch it as you may give them reason not to cover it if someone else tampers with it first.

    Big problem with my Cup

    FROSTY:- Mine has been back three times for leaking Power steering fluid from the pressure sensor union joint (just in front of the alternator). The first time they replaced the washer. The second time they re-tightened it. The third time they replaced the switch as I had noticed the...

    Fed Up :(

    The other one is when you pay the fine, make a cheque out for £1 too much and never cash the refund for over payment. They cannot close t down on their system with it outstanding. So although you have paid the fine DVLC do not add the points on.

    0-60 (tested this weekend)

    Had a couple of dashes to 60 at the weekend. First time from a layby, bit dusty so the wheels slipped a bit in first. 6.55 secs. Second time, no cars about so I stopped on the carrigeway, got the perfect start, no wheelspin, good traction all the way through first, quick smooth gear change...

    Roasted Focus ST170

    Thought it may be a bit of a challenge (168PHP) . Easy picking, rolling start (35mph) in 2nd gave him about 8 car lenghts. when he booted it I followed, by the time i was changing to 3rd I was 2 car lenghts behind, then had to start backing off. Slowed down to 60 ish in third for traffic to...

    painting calipers 2mo!

    Did mine in Red at the weekend. Left them on the car did one wheel at a time. Halfords do a Caliper paint for £9.99 (used less than 1/2 a can to do 2 thick coats). Give them a brush and spay with brake cleaner and away you go. Took about 3 hour all in, While the first coat was drying I spent...

    Cup Tracking

    Swapping wheels round is definately worth a try, done it a few times myself on other cars. As for the tracking:- Did you get it done at Reno as the cup tracking is not the same as the 172 and any old garage would prob use the 172 settings thinking it was the same.

    Cup first impressions

    That is the improved throttle response that the cup ecu has over the standard 172 ecu. A topic of much debate, but now you have experienced it you can confirm it to all the charlatans that disagree...........

    Mk1 172 rough idle

    mine has done only 5k miles and has a lumpy tickover. Reno changed the brake switch (on the pedal) and said it was fixed !!!!! No its not, its still lumpy.

    Handling Deterioration

    I run 35psi front / 31psi rear. Seem to be the best balance for me. Tyre pressure can make a big difference to the handling.
