HILLY is silly........ an xtra 25bhp out of a 1.2 is by no means a small or simple thing.

a deal......my, what do you mean..... A good deal would be a head in exchange for money......lol...sorry. Well, prices vary depending on the spec you want. usually about 350 for a mild 16V head, up to 750 for a full race item. And power gains vary so much. When working with modified...

make up some offset bolts, or adapt your clio struts so you cna make them camber adj....or you can mod the TCAs or get the top mounts.

i have just bought a valver and it has F1s on......not bad.... But i still MUCH prefer bridgestones......simply better

tada!

lol....... you want that strut bar mate?

well, new ones of any make are good..... my std ones are fine........try a new set.

Hello all!!! it is indeed a fab car, about perfet. It also leads me to think Aarons cars is far from std!! or just the only motor which was hand built at the factory! lol Lets take it apart and ave a gander eh! Talked to Dunn, the creator and he said they are real willy wheels, the...

Yes, you will really need to buff up, airflow though an engine is the single most important factor, and its what F1 engineers spend all day long trying to get perfect. Best get reading on fluid dynamics, and learn how flow velocity, turbulance is affected by shape and texture. filtering...

LOL.....you and Ben H! not yet, as getting my old car MOTs in double quick time is prooving HARD!

GOOD STUFF!!!

sorry Greg, i dont think we were meat to start an arguement, but just a lack of info and a great writeup after a heated discussion previously....kinda alot of coincedences. Anyway, LAD are not the most highly rated anymore due to their overblown claims which they never deliver. Although, not...

tape the sensor up......um, ok...... If its after the cat and there is only one, i wouldnt start fiddling with it. I can affect the way the ECU sees how the engine is fueling. However, i have not decetted my 172 for this, and others have tried with no real problems......cheack and see

Having not had a Willy head in my hands (oooer) i have not had the chance to take measurements and volumes. BUT, if the were identicle, i would go with the willy purely as inport velocity will be the same and low lift flow will be higer due to a larger crosssectional area. However, swirl and...

Not sure, but didnt very early 16V not have lambdas? tranny losses increase with power, but % wise they drop. If they went up in proportion, at some point you will be loosing near 50bhp in friction alone, and i can be bothered to work it out, thats ALOT of heat. Ill work it out if you...

LSD limits tha miniumum and maximum amount of power available to any one wheel at any one time. In a normal diff, the wheel witht he least grip get the most power. jack a car up, stop one wheel, and apply throttle, the other free wheel will spin up with relatively little force on the locked...

a guy in HK has the OMP race exhast.....its SO DAMN LOUD!! i mean loud, its got a proper BWAAP, and bwaaaaaaa-bwap-bwaaaaa gear canges.....nice, i like.

The ECu reads the speedo dial to stop stalling during gear changes and coasting. Try clean the connector....its a common problem

Hmmmm....new user too!!! :confused:

high tickover will prob be down to the speedo cable and connection.

whats the std output?

I dont like forced induction. Low boost use is fine, but high boost applications ona small motor leads to lag, and id rather have an engine running off cam then off boost. The noise is also a million times more sexy. If you have them fit TBs, you will need a new ECU, not a remap, the std...

P600s!!!!!!!!! they went out of production ages ago! they are early 80s technology! get some bridgestones on there!

im 21, 3yrs ncb (although getting confirmation to them that i have 50%NCB) and like in a damn quiet area. Paid 580 quid fully comp with 200 accident damage and 100 theft excess. Not too shabby.....

um........this has been done in asia for ages, and its not made out of tape, its a bit more techy. individual letters and logos and background light up in patters, diff speeds and sequences etc etc

sh*t, a grand aint much and i wouldnt bother.....i would much rather keep saving....or get a loan.

2300 for TBs is a fab price!!!! and i think nick includes cams/labour/setting up.

if he is......my car needs a wax on, wax off.......

wha!!!!! thats overly causious! Mine take about 3 mins to get to the middle of the gauge, but i do put it under full throttle in higer gears. And i never really try to go right to the limiter!!! lol I think the gauges on teh MK1 clios are quite slow in regestering temp.....or do they...

mies usually warm in the first 3 mins......i dont usually worry about warmup....as long as pressure is up, im off!
