I'll try and get some Carbone lorraines in mine so you can have a test/feel between mine and lesleys(if shes willing)(oooeerrr)

I think really your missing the point? It's about getting useable power, more to how it drives than OMG it's fast. For instance at combe, your generally dropping off the power in third for the esses and bobbies, or pinging off the limiter in second. Sure you could stop this with a different...

Depends which f7r. if its a megane flywheel its 60-2.

Yozza exhaust certainly ;) Ph1 airbox is a good cheap option. Cup shocks with Eibach springs, wishbones too. all bolt on to your hubs. RStuner (speak to chip) Matched inlets yes, I've got a set here I think. 182 manifold is a big effort to fit, for what is really only noticable midrange...

I think I saw you a few weeks ago actually, near the wicks roundabout. Im certain it was an exclusive. There is an exclusive at Somerset car sales, its been there about 4 years lol.

The turbo etc is all at the back?? I seem to recall chip saying you could run a PD/CD engine on standalone as essentially the operate fairly similarly to a petrol engine.

Tbh it can be many issues causing the noise, but I'd like to see it before even diagnosing the noises source.

Any proof that JMS went bust or is that libel?

He'd need to know the RPM, then he could work out the power.

Another way of putting it is I now match an EP3 type R's torque and power

I should also add, this is mapped and running on sainsburys 97.

Cracked the 200bhp mark :)

I'm blaming Chip. The phone call went along the lines of "192 mate!" "Really? Could well be 200 in there then..." "Well lets see." And the Convo after the first run..

Well atleast I can sell it all on as a 200bhp setup now ;) lol

I could take it back to ktec where it made 160 odd at the wheels before hand? Lol

I haven't. Ill fire him a text and send him this way

Was yours a cup also Nick? I've usually found the cups make more before hand anyway.

Tbh I wish I had mine rolling roaded as standard. To give a decent comparison. The 2 other 172's thy have been tested there within the last month have made 148lb-ft one had a ktec setup and a cat back, the other was a freaky cup that has my matched inlets and decatted stealth with oem...

Thanks guys, as said it couldn't have been done without the input from Chip and Mike. All I've really done is the bolt on side of it, driving it and letting chip know how it was. And of course much thanks should also go out to Lesley for putting up with me being round late nights trying to get...

I should be over in Taunton Saturday anyway mate, doing Lesley's car on CLiP too.

Yeh 143, but I didn't test it before I fitted it so it could naturally have been a low figure.

Full spec: 197 cams RS-2 Stock plugs Stock leads Yozza exhaust and decat Piper cross filter.

Well that was the picture I've just uploaded. But as its been posted I won't bother. Ill post graphs up tonight, left them in my car when I picked a customers car up. Very pleased with the result, and tbh it was only an excercise to see if it'd make or break. I originally hoped for 185, when it...

The only exception to this is 197 cams, however afaik mine, mikes and Lesley's are the only ones running this setup.

Just re-read this.. When they do moan about my cars, the clock is ticking ;) as the last one found out.

I've been thinking about putting a PD engine into a Clio, as they come up fairly cheap and are great Diesel engines IMO

FLOL! You make me sound like a slut :( but yes there is a trend that I usually end up with a new car after a girl. My car count is just ahead lol. Though I'm not sure if that's good.

They work very well with an RS2

It will have been very tappy if it was clipping pistons.
