righto, just read that other thread.
BTW jeremey, were still waiting for our cups/172s/meganes/espace (bout 2-3yrs) and cant shift the laguna for all these dead cheap Jap cars......and the Euro is still getting stronger!
ARGH!!!!
there ya go......the box is fine, ive never bust one, but ive also never put 220bhp through one, but i am so not a gearbox person........so chris settled that.
Ben, the mini one and the mini cooper are the same bloody engine, superchips just twiddled the ECU which restrined the engine that...
in simple terms, torque is the power of the engine, BHP is measurement of the amount of work done an engine can do per unit of time, that site will tell you.
how do they act?
they act very well ;)
some engines indeed repsond better as the or that part you are changing is inherently, excuse my french, sh*te. Some are so badly designed that its easy to make up power.
Reliability wise, 100bhp/ltr isnt over stressing a modern engine, and the only...
debt, always a b*****d! lol
What do i do, um.......i dont do anything in particular! lol
Im trying to finish this degree but great work prospects are taking me away from it lol. I work for Renault in HK a few months in the yr, but i make most of my money by privately modifying cylinder heads...

Sure, you could make a kit to get the 1.8 to run 200-220bhp, which would be brilliant, but how many people would be prepared to pay probably over 10K to give their car away for about a month+, stripped...
Its got NOTHING to do with the tuners or the cars. Any car can be made to work better than std and increasing power by 50%-80% its not a technically difficult thing. ALL engines work on the same theory and ALL respond to the same methods. Some come out of the factory in a stonking manner and the...
the CTR can just get a fair amount more work done per hr than the 172 engine can, even if it is dragging more weight.
And the k90 engine is in no means peaky, its just that the VTEC give a more of a change on the switch to the 3rd cam lobe, so proportionally it might feel peaky. At lower RPM...
not back till mid august mate.
refilling info from the wizard site.

Q3) From where can I buy nitrous oxide refills?
A3) We or our agents (in some areas) can supply your nitrous oxide needs, but you may want to rent a large refill cylinder from your local branch of LYNDE gas, who can...
