    Oversizing tyres... the effects

    WHAT!!!! were talking a less than 1% increase in frontal area! Dont worry about it dan, itll be a cheaper tyre, more modern (nobody uses that size anymore, well not performance cars) and will only be beneficial. You wont get any decreases in accel or top speeds, but a tad more grip will be...

    Speedline wheels

    O....DOH!!! you want to keep the polished effect! if you polish them again on a polishing wheel with the appropriate grade stick, then they shouldnt fuzz up again.

    Cup Different ECU

    not argueing that the cup isnt faster....it is, deffo....BUT in HK where the aimbient temps are as high as 37 outside and up to 48 deg C inside.......i think aircon is a neccesity, hency why we are getting cups with an aircon. An aircon can account for about 4-6% of an engines power depending...

    Cup owners please read

    lots of 172/cups have mounts which are not tight enough from the factory, its become part of the test on the PDI....lol cant suggest a solution as it happents durning turning, usually associate clunking with hard accelreation.

    if you want to keep swet sweet handling...no lower than 30mm..... rears, no problem with lowering, but only prob occurs when you increase from spring rate and you cant the rear. They will wear fater if they are hitting their bumpstops, damaging the valve......another reason not to go too...
