    182 manifold on 172

    in theory a 4-1 gives more top end power than a 4-2-1 yes but i felt no decrease in top end power and a big gain of mid range torque which is what you need for a fast road car (which is what i use mine for) down a backroad it was much better to drive you could just leave it in 3rd instead of 2nd...

    182 manifold on 172

    as usual haha but lets remeber ive got everything he mentioned above and fitted them ;) but as said if you can fit the manifold yourself then go for it if you can get one cheapish i wouldnt be paying to have one fitted or buying a new one! being bloddy honest nothings worth it, leave them...

    reving a car to 4k revs is not going to do it any harm. not sure what ecu its running i just know he paid 1k to have the new ecu fitted, safe maped and then a remap when he gets the time

    sparks coming from the exhaust are loose bits of the weld from the inside burning off was fine after 5 mins running. yes they do need properly mapped infact i beleive there is only one company in the uk that is worth getting them mapped by? thats why its just had a 1k ecu install and map done...

    changing sidelights

    on non aircon cars i used to curse when the battery side blew because it had less room, then i tried the drivers side on a 172 with aircon lol sore hands after it!

    Finally pics!

    im trying to decide if i like that splitter or not! i think it looks awesome in some pics and not in others! front bumper looks awesome just needs fog lights fitted (assuming u smashed them too?)

    my car pops flames with standard ecu map!!

    its never going to pop flames like the ITB cars do unless you get it mapped to spit fire!!! but i cant see why it wont pop a flame like mine did yesterday with a decat, but its only done it once so wouldnt say its worth spending money on a decat for that alone! lol

    cheapest rear dampers for non-sport

    why skimp on probably the next most important thing after tyres for keeping you on the road? lol OEM quality standard ones will be cheapest but if your looking for aftermarket check out apex or gmax

    my mate got a powerflow on his old 172 (was from motorsport world - loads of us got systems from them when they used to do the old zaust exhausts before they used powerflow and they were brilliant!!) wasnt 2.5" rusted to f**k, tailpipe went brown with rust! lol

    my car pops flames with standard ecu map!!

    anyone ever heard of a standard ecu 172 doing this? it was poping flames when i lifted off on the limiter in 5th yesterday? standard cams and TB 182 manifold, decat and k-tec stealth!

    Clio 1.5 dCi from Portugal [MagNastiK]

    I would be very interested in finding out if you can use the C3 injectors on them too as it would allow me to run silly power! im only going to spend money on mine if i can get a really good gain, not interested in under 120bhp and 200lb/ft lol

    its no where near the limiter its beeping because the coolant temperature sensor has failed. erm i cant quite remeber the manufacturer but i beleive its some sort of factory optional kit of some sort, AB Flung or AB Flug or something?
