    RTE or Clever Peeps

    poo...... We cant detect logged faults on our computer and the fault has to occur when the computer is hooked up. Odd yes......dunno why they did it that way. Hence, alot of cars idling and out for rd tests.

    Golf VR6 race

    Eh!!??? if you knew anything you would know that its not possible. The std head head and cam combination WILL NOT PHISICALLY allow that much poewr due to the fact that it will not be processing enough air/min. The std cam falls off and you start loosing power. a 1.8 16V with 2ltr crank is a...

    HELP!! 16V DEAD

    if the belt snapped, the bottom ned would turn over and GRIND the open valves to a pump....and would get stuck....turn no more.... It woudnt start at all. If you can, take the cam cover off, take the pugs out and check the end of the pug for damage as snapped valves will bounce around in the...

    mssage for ben r

    Throttle bodies nowadays follow a generic DCOE flange. Which means any car you can run weber DCOEs on you can run throttlebodies which have the same mounting flange. So, in essence, all TBs are the same....theya re NOT specific to a car, it is the inlet MANIFOLD which is specific to the...

    on std TB......about 190bhp..... The head is good for over 260bhp, BUT what you run with it in terms of cam profile, injeciton and inductin, exhaust etc will really dictate how much you are gonna get. Potential is stored in the head.....its what you use to being it out. i.e. bowl of 2000...

    L.A.D’s 200+ bhp Conversion....

You need to add ther items such as new guides, collets, retainers, springs, valves and machinig. But i do these...
