    couple of engine questions

    cheers mate thats a great help! but one thing i dont understand is why does it drop off the power band in 1st gear at about 5,000rpm but not in any other gears? is this some sort of limiter in the ecu?

    Keep the 1.2 or not??

    you say you want more speed off the mark, 17s will be killing your acceleration, especially off the mark. i found mine was slightly slower off the mark with 16s than it is with 15s, but didnt bother me to much, the handling did tho! so im back to 15s like middo says, sort the suspension and...

    60mm springs or 40mm?
  19. Martin_172

    should i keep it ?

    been looking into the 1.2 turbo myself not for the speed because it would cost mega money to go above 120bhp but just because it would be different, but really not worth the money

    £500 - Decisions Decisions

    you can get coilovers for that money (i think) or you could get a set of 40mm apex springs with uprated dampers for about £280 ish or something like that (dont know what uprated dampers the 2.0 boys use?) which leaves you with £200-ish for a set of braided brake lines and uprated pads or...

    Air filter for dynamique 2004 >

    no they dont fit, different throttle body and airbox. saying that if its just a pannel filter your using they might be the same shape/size to save money so might fit even tho the airbox is different, ive never seen inside the ph3 airbox

    non RS owners, lets see your exhausts

    how come your backbox is shiney but the rest isnt if its a full cat back?

    non RS owners, lets see your exhausts

    bet that sounds "interesting"? does it smoke a lot? does it sound much different from an aftermarket on a petrol, never heard a diesel with a different exhaust
