That's a Magnex

Sounds like the improvement you've got is about right for the work done. I know they were benchmarking the new dyno recently as a stock 182 was making 165

well yeah, the dyno and workshop is booked up most of the time and workshop staff dont take bookings, but I'm sure if you'd asked someone (there are 11 people there) that you would have got some help

sounds like the timing is out to me. did you actually ask them to investigate why the power is low?

Learn to say NO. Ask Tom for tips on this

1.6 will be a K4M. Bit of a small engine for a large car, but it just about manages

EFA

Can't bring myself to have any love for the mk2 laguna. The mk1 was so good it just left the new one feeling very mediocre IMO

depends which exhast you get, there's a few which have adjustable length with a sleeved joint just after the cat.

I can't get my head round why people ignore the middle ground with springs. Why is it always cheapest or most expensive brand?? Guess it comes under the following the crowd mentioned above. People should be more careful of advice from forums, it's full of enthusiastic people who love what...

Piper recessed Usually inwardly rolled tailpipe on the piper, but as they're made to order, an outward roll is no issue at all. available in 2.25 and 2.5 inch, so can go quieter with the smaller bore and it's a minimal restriction. Also always comes with a center silencer, and a 182 cutout trim

EFA ;)

it's this bit that i'm disagreeing with. The 182 systems are completely different in fit, quality and sound. You can't make a judgement on a 182 system with experience of a 172 system. It's purely a speculative opinion

they are crap, but people still want them as they're cheap. I can't be bothered with them personally. PI are my choice, 25mm drop and well matched to standard damping, never had a single bit of negative feedback from fitting a fair number, whereas I get a lot of disappointed Eibach owners...

Piper is my favourite overall, and with cat still fitted it's a very pleasant sounding system.

complete speculation, and no factual basis the new janspeed branded systems, especially for the 182 are almost standard noise levels until you give the throttle some pressure.

on a 182, quietest would probably be the Janspeed (KTR) sport. Thats what I'd use if a quiet system was requested

thats the right stuff. We have it on the shelf ;)

above post isn't exactly factual......

Had a play with an 800. Impressive touchscreen!! not sure I like the tiles, they're a bit cartoony/childish. More impressed than I thought I would be though

definitely makes a difference, but it's not a case of longer the better right across the board we tried these out during mapping of a williams made a huge difference to the shape of the torque curve, pushing the peak down the revs Have also trialed different lengths on 2 litre zetec, and...

depends what's already been done, how long since last service etc

60mm trumpets are optimal with the KTR direct to head bodies on a standard engine

scotchlocks should all be burried in a big hole in the ground. Go and sit in the corner and have a word with yourself

solder will be fine

yes, can supply, fit, and reflash map your ECU, £1150 on a cup

that's roughly the possible gains. They're really very good. I've wanted to be able to use 421's with the stock ECU without compromise for a long time, and these fill that criteria being a very similar profile

Motrio are what I would fit every time, anything more is pointless and yes, exact same pad as a lot of peugeots

I thought the numbers were from a Dynodynamics. That explains it tbh. that superflow is a lovely piec of kit, but it's consistently higher than elsewhere. Best thing to do is see where in the revs the gains are, if the gains are all higher up, then it's not a big surprise that a healthy...

172 exhaust manifold definitely comes out the top. Easier if you lower the engine so it sits on the subframe once the manifold is unbolted.
