    ECU Software Upgrade, worth it

    The sofware changes are done at serivces, and i dont know what will happen if you ask for one. They iron out bugs rather than increase performance. Ask your dealer

    172 Questions!!!!!!

    LOL, some hurried questions! The spark plugs do not need t be replaced unless damaged, they are long life precious metal plugs and expensive. The inlet manifold needs to be taken off to get the plugs out, so dont replace them with crappy non OE plugs. The plugs are 16.85 ex VAT each...

    Throttle Bodies - Feck it! :-)

    The Alson kit for 2k will consist of the webcon kit, so you wont have much choice. GO witht he throttle plate off jenvey and your looking at 400 quid + for jsut them, then you need all the other hardware like fuel rail, injectors, pressure reg, the abundance of sensors etc etc..... I wont...

    Cup brake upgrade

    how do they do it!!!! um the 700+bhp/ton ratio helps! They are full fairing, winged and extremely fast. I only have my 125 gearbox kart left, still its good fun. http://www.f1karts.co.uk/images/gbox250/f12502002side.jpg http://www.f1karts.co.uk/images/gbox250/f12502002rear.jpg

    Throttle Bodies - Feck it! :-)

    yes you can get them for a willy. Chadill do the whole kit, but stick to the manifold as you can get far cheaper TB;s here in the UK. SPace is a premium under there so choose your TB wisely, you need a decent amount of space for a nice sized air filter and thrumpets under the filter. There...

    Engine Noise - Suggestions

    Throttle Bodies - Feck it! :-)

    I would have a talk with northampton motorsport, they do alot of side draught and throttle body work. Good man, goin the right way. I would estimate about 200-210bhp when its all done, but make sure you get some damn cold air to the things! lol Just to clear up a bit, coolspot was right...

    but you shouldnt need to conciencisouly match rev on an upshift. the revs will drop and the gear slots in, nice and easy. guess you have to be there.

    FAO 1991 Clio 1.4 owners!

    Some, especially the dif edition clio slike the fidji had a carb, not injection hench his choke lever. You will have to look about for an IK, or just get one that fits. I dont think you will need ot adj fueling unless the std airbox is so poor that even with the increase in inlet temps you...

    Drilled Discs & Pagid Pads

    the discs wont improve the braking by any major amount, or minor amount really. They only dissipate heat. Drilled discs tend to crack easier and give no real benfit, plus they are noisy. I use plain Maxtorque discs as tehy are slightly softer and generate heat faster, also cheap at 40 something...

    what, you mean the car jerks as you let off the clutch? do the revs drop too fast or too slow? is the clutch snappy at all from a standstill?

    Cup brake upgrade

    as long as they dont touch the rim then your fine. free airspace dont matter, no matter how good you duct the discs etc, you wont keep it cool enough if the disc is too smal for the speed your doin. and having them fit in your wheels is a bonus!

    Cup brake upgrade

    yes, pad area does contibute a sunstantial amount to retardation. Your basically trying to convert all that inertial energy through rotational kenetic enerrgy into heat, as fast as possible. Most of the game is in swept area, but there is more to it than that. the moment is basically...

    A little test, a huge result......!

    Im taking this is a joke, i clearly specified CANOLA oil not peanut, peanut is for the engine lubrcation! lol, sorry.......if its really true, and you did add peanut oil then i suddest you either dip in some kitchen towels to get the majority out, then take off the tank (but clip the hoses)...
