ahhhhhh that would explain why im always in the "thorpes" as im working for kier on council properties. lol I dont think much of any of the estates tbh. Heeley green, the manor, arberthourne. All "interesting" places to be lol

Lol i also live in the midlands and work in Sheffield...I commute daily though. What is it with that place and places ending in thorpe? Jordanthorpe, upporthorpe, waterthorpe etc. Funny.

So is this going to be a bolt on bolt off mod or is there more to it than that? Is it just lake changing the upper plenum?

Any stains or marks on item number 260369318273? lol

Ive been running on Vpower/Tesco 99Ron for 6months or so. Cant say ive noticed a great deal of difference i do however run the car with a 98ron map so figure its for the best if i stick to the good stuff.

^ Lift of oversteer and the rear end wiggle under hard braking are two things to be carefull with imo

TBH i wish id bought a 172 and saved a couple of grand. Same car bar the exhaust, colour selection and minor suspension difference. Having said that i love my 182 and i personally do like the twin exhausts.

Enjoy your 182. Ive had mine just over 12months now and still love it everytime i go for a drive.

I had to have my dephaser pulley replaced when i had my cambelt changed. Cost approx £560 for the cambelt change and dephaser pulley at Birchdown. Thing the dephaser was approx £120

Anyone off here?

Re: ***How much is my car worth?*** Surely he wont drop the price by a grand? I'd offer £2000 and meet in the middle at £2250 based on 1st glance. Although the lack of history and jobs needed would concern me. What exactly does it need? Proof of cambelt change?

People actually do that?

Hi, Selling all the above if they are of interest to anyone. Any questions feel free to ask. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/merchant/russ.sims Thanks, Russ

Ok, will look into this. Hopefully the other 182 owner will be able to post his map. Im pretty sure his torque curve was very similar. Is it a possibility its down to the dyno/operator?

That doesnt sound good, would you be able to elaborate a little for me? Possible the map is pushing the car too far?

I think hes done the run in 3rd as it hit the limiter at 98mph according to the graph. If it were 4th i think it would be closer to 120mph. The torque curve on the other 182 was very similar to mine. The other 182 had a btb exhaust, yozza decat, rs tuning remap.

Ill give TDI a call on Monday and see if they have the at the wheel figure for me unless anyone else who went knows what they were using?

Got no ATW figure. Didnt realise until i looked at the graph when i got home. Hmmmmm not sure what correction has been put on now

Totally agree with you, although theres no reason not to be able to get a 172 with fsh for £3.5k

Yeah, i think the rollers were a little generous tbh but its funny how the meggys seemed to read on the low side. The 197's gave a mixed bag as well. Standard low mileage 197 got 203 bhp yet a modded (cammed) 197 only got 206. Car is standard bar matched inlets, ptfe gaskets and rs tuner map

Really pleased with my results. 189.1bhp and 177.1 lbft torque. Another 182 there also achieved an impressive 186bhp. Mapped meggy's however only seemed to get around 250ish bhp. The highest result whilst i was there was an R32 which got an impressive 270bhp. Heres a photo of my graph -

If your max budget is £3.5k then in my opinion you would be better looking at a slightly older 172. Im pretty sure you could get a 53plate 172 with cruise control and esp for around that price. Mileage would prob be 60k ish as well.

I would rather have this tbh.... http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/849811.htm
