erm to make it i would imagine around £30-£40

i wouldn't bother messing with the compression ratio of the engine get some new performance cams and the speak to Henk at fastchip

http://www.powerflowexhausts.net/dealerlocator.cfm ^some are hit and miss though

Hamann only on an X5 in my opinion

when you remove the cylinder head why don't you measure it? how are you going to reprogramme the car's computer to allow for the increased compression??? is there someone who can do it over there?? its a hell of a lot of work for minimal gains

magnex? a powerflow place could knock that up

i've posted all the part numbers loads of times, have a search

i will, i happen to know the guy who looks after ALL of the engines for ALL of the uk renault sport racing cars (formula renault single seaters, clio cup, etc etc) 1mm will make a difference so ner! :rasp:

about £50-£60 each

WRONGER than wrong chap i'm afraid, you ever done an F4R?

i believe its 5* euro NCAP and the 172/182 is only 4*, maybe that has something to do with it?

^agree

yeah we rebuilt it at yozzasport

the threads are exposed under the car, so they're always a bugger to get out due to s**t and rust in the threads, 17mm socket and a rachet and ave it!

the F4R's are incredibly sensetive when it comes to timing, 1mm here or there can = 30bhp lost

get the plugs out and find someone with an endoscope that can have a look inside the engine or remove the inlet manifold and turn the engine by hand to check to see if the inlet valves are opening i know of 1 mk1 172 that made 150bhp, problem was a knackered lambda and i also know of another...

as long as the person doing the cambelt has the special renault tools and knows what they're doing, then you'll be fine

that would only get you 200bhp

about £8K and a mechanic who likes replacing gearboxes every 6months

fuel pump relays is what i'd check first

yup

just keep an eye on the water level, the pumps always start leaking after about 60K

did you change the water pump too? these are a very weak point on the 1.2 don't bother Flushing out the engine, just change the oil and filter

not as many as me obviously

if you like them to wear out quicker, then yeah! LOL

about £5 for the gasket remove the pipe between the airbox and the throttle body then remove the plenham/throttle body complete

NGK PFR6E-10 And does anyone know what price they'd be from Renault ? £13 each, £9 each at a motorfactor And does my plenum thing (Renault Sport upper manifold bit) need to come off to fit them ? yes If so would i need a new manifold gasket ? yes And what torque would they get torqued...

thats why my engineering friend at Nitron also suggests 1month ;)

mintex extreme aren't! they're dangerous IMO

brembo front discs = £59 a pair stock pads are around £45 EBC greens are around the same
