they are usually down 10hp against their quoted PS figures for both the 172 and 182, however as mentioned there are a few freaky ones, my old 172 ran 173bhp on the same day all the 172s were running 165-170bhp and the 182s running 170-180bhp.
you usually find 182s vary more than 172's im not...
Uploaded the new map from Henk @ Fastchip today and HOLY s**t! its transformed it, the mid range torque gain is huge, i used to rev it to 5500rpm when going for it but now i never bother taking it past 4000rpm it flys through the revs!
Injectors are hitting 100% duty though and spitting out the...
as much as i dont beleive its right if something like this happened, just another rule we need to live by, as if there isnt enough already. But the manufacturers would eventually react to it and we would get a much bigger and better choice of factory options to compensate!
fitted new clean plates with no dealer advertsing!, it was getting dark and the car was dirty but took a picture anyway...
Also ordered an RSTuner for it with a Stage 1 map :)
to clear a few things up from the last page.
Dynamique S and Dynamique SX all had wider front arches, from 1.2 16v to 2.0 16v
The kit upgraded your Dynamique S to a Dynamique SX, that was the only difference between the 2
no the headlights dont have holes in them, but what they do have is a force feed duct forcing air into the area behind them, forcing all the hot air out of the engine bay, your filter is currently situated under a vent, above the hottest part of the engine with the vent circulating all the hot...
i would aquire windows 7 64 bit as above, however ebuyer are doing some cheap deals on win 7 at the moment clearing stock since windows 8 is now about to be released.
crucial says your max ram for that model is 4GB
if you need more than that i would stick it on ebay and buy yourself a used...
there is rare 54 plate 172's and i suppose there could be a few 05's cutting about too! but there are plenty 53 and 04 plates, 53 onwords got cruise control.
looking at getting one of these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/USB-Wireless-Adapter-Connect-XBOX-360-Controller-To-PC-Gaming-Gamer-Fun-/221137187888?pt=UK_Computing_Other_Computing_Networking&hash=item337ccdb430
anyone tried them? was looking at wired controllers to use with the pc but since i have...
had to look at the rear for 30 seconds to make my mind up!! but i love that, definately keep the ph1 rear lights though.
not sure if a cup spoiler would finish that or ruin it!
like the black bit on the front bumper that looks awesome
good work!
id imagine they are probably the same but a higher flow rate on the 172 as id imagine they probably use a similar or same fuel tank etc being a mk2 chassis
the only time ive ever saw recaros wear out is ones that arn't leather unless they are ancient leather ones cracking. Its due to the lack of foam in the side bolsters on the current ones (what ever they are called) meaning there is no give in the material when your arse passes by it, few guys in...
pretty solid cars/engines, personally id look for a dci106 or if you are set on a 138 then try and find one with a cabasse stereo and climate control as there is loads about.
Recaro's are a funny one, they are awesome, driving wise i would never order one without them however i am the most careful guy ever getting in and out them and still mine were starting to show a bit of wear and that was with my old dear getting in and out it to move it out the drive maby 1 or 2...
