Cheers guys. In that case I might set it parallel so it'll naturally toe out slightly once the cooksport springs settle

Are these the same for a Ph1 172 or is that different?

Going to get the tracking set after fitting the cup arms to my ph1. How much toe works well? Still want decent turn in but keeping good straight line stability. I suppose parallel is the halfway point...

I'm lucky and the rollers aren't a problem. I'll email Henk as what I want to clear up is whether he will adjust the map once or if you send it back for fine tuning.

I'll be doing my logs at the local RR so I can monitor things and make sure I get what I need.

I need to email Henk and ask a couple of questions about it. From what I understand you do the same as you would taking it somewhere to be mapped anyway, but maybe spend less time on it so you don't get the absolute maximum out of it.

£312 and send your old cams to Piper, they send them back within 10 days or so. As for how safe on a standard map I don't know. I'm going to see how it runs on 98ron remap. I know Paul at RS tuning can supply and map these but to keep costs down on mapping, travel and as I already have an rs...

You could do Piper cams for an extra £320 whilst the engine is out for a bit more go. Or 197 cams if you can get them cheap. Both a bit less than Catcams and it would be rude not too :cool: I've been there before a few times with decent engine builds....not going there again

If you want the head doing for a good price then look no further than the group buy I've got going. Get some better valves in there too at the same time. Then hand it back to A N Other to build the engine. As for revs you're going to need better springs and rockers unless you stick with the...

Maybe worth giving Piper a call and say you had them fitted but removed them due to issues not having the shims and would they honour you with a shim kit?

It's in the first post ^^^ :) 0.5mm

I just bought a Kenwood BT42 for £80 from Halfords. Works great and does everything I need it to do. Even links with my phonebook so I don't have to call off my phone. Got the usual pre-outs, aux in, USB etc. Etc.

Just for info for those interested. What you get...2 x boxed and oiled reprofiled cams, instructions, data sheet, COSHH sheet (for the lubrication present), leaflets, shim kit. The shim kit also comes with instructions and 16 x 12mm OD, 5mm ID, t=0.5mm shims.

Ok thanks Fred. I need some other bits from Renault so I'll get them too. I'll take a couple of pics later for you.

My Piper cams have turned up with the shim kit. I'm going to get a new dephaser and a belt. Is there anything else that needs replacing on the F4R?

I added a jubilee clip afterwards just in case

I've used this. As someone mentioned above. Lots of force and boiling water. You need the fitting and the hose HOT and then use dishcloths or rags so you don't get burnt. Push and twist and keep going. Eventually it'll go. Once its on it's not coming off unless you cut it. And then you have to...

got it sorted :)

do these go....? (the bearing is inside the larger rubber)

Here's one! http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?481287-too-much-torque

It's not hard. More concerned about space for it all where the A/C is. More losses than a rotrex but a damn sight cheaper

Anyone fitted one to a Clio? The M62 would be the most apt.

Blue cup reg. S40 CUP spotted this morning about 09:45 in Rhos on Sea

Yes. It's better than the 600 series. You have the potential to use a 197/200 dephaser and have more control over the VVT too.

I have set up a group buy now. £100 for both parts of the inlet to be matched!! http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?693198-Matched-inlets-(both-parts)-£100&p=9480244#post9480244

Don't want to know what a Nova is like at 170mph! My Mk2 Fiesta at a genuine 140mph was quite a scary place to be. In my Focus its nothing!

I've got a nearly new DTA S40 with innovate wideband sat here from my zetec turbo. To save it going to waste I'm contemplating sticking it on the Clio. My questions are:- Is it capable (spec wise) of running on a Ph1 with all the sensors, VVT etc.? Will it cause issues with dash lights...

Yes. I could also set up a group buy
