you can clean my house........and there is lots of machinery for you to play with, including a recently built flow bench.

the head can be made a fair bit better, but youll only need it if you are aiming for 250bhp plus......the loss in velocity far outweighs the gain in flow.
trust me mate.....fitting is no more than 200 to engine bulders....its easy work...
but a head that gosts a grand should be something REALLY REALLY special...im talking BTCC spec here.....
And from my findings, the 172 head is good for 215BHP on std cams, with unchanged timing on quad TBs...
awww......how sweet....
But im not sure i could just take your money, eventhough you just offered......
i would have to do some work.....perhaps bolt on some chicken wire and a big tailpipe trim..good for 40bhp!
Oh, i would rather go to adrian Newey than Patrick......lol
1200 quid a for a touchup on a head tat flows great as std and altering of cam timing that already has VVT phasing to advance the inlet!!!??
Doesnt seem very good VFM and i realy dont think gains with headwork alone will be that good, spesh with the patheticly sized TB.
Im with you...
LOL....which motor are we talking about...the 1.6 16V our of the megane and newer clios?
It wont be a straight swap.
I dont know exatly what it would envisage, but a fair bit of fiddling. I have never contemplated a conversion as, well.....just too much like hard work.
I prefer to buy a...
but the mini is just not a mini....
its a thingy...
and nothing too special.......just the revival of a legendary name.
and i hate that chrysler engine!
Same in HK Bob, i try help all the time, and local Renault club members are friends. BUT, come the time im not there.....nothing but bad talk behind my back.....and they wonder why i dont give a damn what they do now....my service and effort isnt free.
Most of the time, they just use you to...
This is a great add!!!!
And where is the conversion in head work? what do they do?
std manifold and TB and cams? and only a midly worked head.......i didnt think they touched the bottom end? or is t a reference to the actual milage of the car in total?
Cost and what was done exactly...
the 1.6 16V is 110bhp, and ok......but in our megane cabrio....it was deal slow.
The1. 8v RSi is also about 110 aint it? although lovely heavy cast iron....lol
Ohhhhhh.....
i thought you were gonna buy it!!! thought you went a robed that bank!
SMG.........Solely for Mums Gripes
Surely you should let her use that S3!!!!!
they send it free if you email them.......they take money if your silly enought to pay!
Got both the motorsport and rd one.....now i see what people mean by blue discs!!! lol
still got the same old trash in the rd one....haha
Williams valves are 2 mill oversize @ 32 mm. You would need the seats machined to fit and cut. and in a std engine, it wont give you much......infact, if the throats arent modified to make use of the flow potential, then itll give nowt.
IF (nowhere near 100% sure) i remember, the willy has a...
Doesnt sound like you know too much about the 16V yet alone the GTT!
If you need to ask so much, i wouldnt do it right now, havea go researching, have a look at it in a car it was designed for. You could probably mod the mounts specific to teh engine to fit your car. I would bring across the...
sounds expensive!!
buying insuring on a contenent as a country, shipping.....tax, more insurace....sheesh.....would it not be cheaper to buy one from NZ?
To the both of you:
You will be looking at about 2500 for the hardware and fitting, less if you can do it yourself...its not hard.
TBs are the fuel injection equivalent of DCOEs, they look similar but retain high pressure fuel injection. They replace the inlet manifold and any std...
your pedals look like they are a foot off the floor!!!
but i know yours is nice........
LOL...we got the same knobs...........and the same rotational directional influencing circular occilators.
yeah, japan sells RHD Renaults.
Not sure, but this looks like a euro car imported, not a dealer.
yeah, my father does all Renaults for HK.......and they are the same as yours, bar the fewer problems!!! lol
We dont ge the 4k rattle, squeeks etc. only problems seem to be the engine mounts...
