    1.2 to 1.6?

    100's arn't much faster than 80's especially day to day as the 100 delivers its power higher up the rev range, 100 has much more potential though if you are into modding, 130hp/190lbft easily had, uprate the clutch and well over 200lb/ft is available. they drive much better too with the...

    1.2 to 1.6?

    wow not a bad increase for bolt on mods, so does that mean if i do the same mods to my 200 it will also knock off 2.5 seconds 0-60? 4.5 seconds would be sick!!!

    2200 miles and its going into the dealership already!

    update on this, car went back into dealership. bonnet now fits, exhaust still blows, car still pulls all over the road, car is extremely dangerous under hard braking, lurches massively to the left snatching the wheel from your hand, passengers side disc has a big lip on both sides, drivers is...

    2000rpm flat spot when cold.....

    who said the car was being put under load or red lined? a car can have a flat spot at any rpm/load. they do usually have odd flat spots for the first 30-60 seconds but should be fine after that, ambient temperature usually makes it better/worse

    Air filter and exhaust systems for a 182 with both cup packs

    na the standard paper ph1 filter is a better design too, much bigger with more surface area, so imo not as much of a restriction as the smaller flat ph2 filter, which with the same engine, any extra air flow will be more of a benefit. paper filters arnt bad when brand new but apparently foam...

    Air filter and exhaust systems for a 182 with both cup packs

    disagree with that, i got proven gains on the RR with an ITG pannel a few years ago.

    Clio 200 - anyone running a raised limiter?

    yes torque is the one with the big peak at 3000rpm bhp is the smooth line that peaks at 202 up the top of the rev range

    Clio 200 - anyone running a raised limiter?

    TDF stage 3 is looking appealing, whats the crack with the flat spot on aftermarket exhausts is TDF able to map this out these days?

    Clio 200 - anyone running a raised limiter?

    looking at my RR graph from yesterday, lets not use this thread to dispute results etc but by looking at the graph its self, the car hasn't started to tail off even by the rev limiter, so looking at it i recon i would benefit from a few extra hundred RPM thoughts? Uploaded with ImageShack.us
