wow, bit of an update here. After debating wether or not my car had the 98ron map mod I had a search around and tried a few things. Firstly, it was idling at 1100rpm cold and dropping to 900-950 when warm. Secondly, i was told if it hits the limiter at 7500rpm in 2nd then it has probably been...

cluck me.... looks like im going to have to go down the lanes now then... I will tell the popo im just checking something. so if my rev counter goes over that then i have it? or will the needle keep going up?

right, had a bit more of a read about it from various threads on here and ive found out a few things. I've read that the 98ron map idles at 1100rpm cold and settles down to a steady 900 when warm. Mine does exactly this already. So does this mean mine is already running the map? Knowing my...

sound lads cheers, appreciate it. will hook up a charger just to be on the safe side.

wow, just read through the FAQ section on the rs tuner website and I'm more confused now than before. it says something about a wideband connector? not sure I need that do I? also, does the engine have to be running when you have it all plugged in from start to finish? sorry about the...

will have to see what the weather is doing now with all this snow forecast for tonight and tomorrow. Don't want to get caught up in it and have to travel an hour. seeing as most of the people coming have dropped out do you want to change it to 7pm so I have more of a chance of getting there...

and the pops and bangs is the OVERRUN map? You have to pay extra for hat though right? Not that i would use it.

cheers @ADS1982

Can someone just confirm that the "Stage 1" map included in the 200 price is the RON98 map? Bit confusing the site is, stuff all over the place on there.

still have to wait for the codes :)

by the tine you have bought the unlock and map it works out at pretty much the same depending on how much you want for yours of course.

just read a bit more down the page and seen it was "stage 1 map" can anyone elaborate on what its like or shall I just go straight for the 98ron?

I'm taking it that this is what I need: http://www.fastchip.nl/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=shop.flypage&product_id=18&category_id=7&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=26 what is the map it cones with? I'm wanting the 98ron map but I'm a bit confused what it comes with.

From cold i know they are lumpy but when warm it doesn't really pull before you get up into the 4-5ks. It's as if there isn't anything in between... I believe the RS tuner gives more mid range torque?

UBER BUMP! Have noticed now I'm used to the car that i have this issue. 1st gear pulls off then is pretty much flat after 2k. Unless you floor it like a d!ck which isn't wise. 2nd gear pulls well throughout 3rd and above are ok once you hit 4500-5k. Before this its pretty much a normal car...

I like the seats, that's about it. looks like a dog cocking its leg up a lamppost to me.

what a bummer. I may live to see another day at oulton... hope you get it sorted mate.

@Mr Burns will know.

how much did you pay for those decals just out of ibterest

I'm going to have a go at mine this year. Don't know if I'm going to polish the inlets or cheat and send it off to be powdercoated. get the expansion tank off ebay or eurocarparts but make sure its the right one. genuine one from Renault is expensive and lets be honest, its a plastic bottle.

its a 50min journey for me so if I can get through the traffic ok after work I should be there for 6.

@Cerrone @dajones still coming?

oh right ok, so who is going then?

still on?

looks good. Did you just sand and polish the inlets? No paint? also, change the expansion tank and get some type d coolant to finish the job off :)

yeah I'm glad too George, will still be in touch about the discs/pads also.

just took it out for a spin. As good as new now. Handbrake is a bit stiff but felt proper loose before so its probably normal. nice to be able to pull away smoothly now lol.

sticky piston near side. Handbrake arm stuck on, offside.
