Spotted a 182 yesterday, on a 57 plate! Thing is, I ran the plate through mycarcheck app and it's showing as a 2009 car?
were there any that late? I thought the latest of that shape was the campus?
:S
That's my first point of call, I think I'll buy Elevates. I want the elevate induction kit too, problem is the uk sellers are about 50% more expensive than the USA sellers. I'm going to contact elevate and see if I can buy direct.
I think it should be making more than it is now to be honest, the map that is on it is good for 310bhp and 370lb-ft torque, I suspect I've got something more than the exhaust and inlet holding it back.
heres the the graph from yesterday, I've clearly got something weird going on, look at the...
So, not disappointed with the results however it shows just how restrictive the std intake and exhaust are!
figures were 277bhp and 325lb-ft torque so just under what I predicted. It is running fairly rich at 11:1 so I'm hoping with some breathing mods and something done with the exhaust it'll...
Ahh right, thought you may have been local and were goign to pop in (then realised you're in the SW!)
Do you know what mods the ST has had for 330bhp? and do you know how much torque it's producing? I'll be happy if mine makes more than std RS torque (325lb-ft) It certainly feels like a torque...
No need for canbus bulbs. Paying extra for something you don't need
I've got loads of LED's from an eBay seller called partsulike, the item number of the ones I use are 330908390293 (can't link to it on work PC)
Right, it's going back on the dyno this afternoon. Same place as before, so a fair comparison.
Last run (4 weeks ago) it made 217bhp 242lb-ft torque. I'm predicting 280+bhp and 330lb-ft. I'll update later today
Yes he has std reflector headlights which are NOT suitable for HID bulbs. Fingers crossed the rozzers start to clamp down on the random fitting of HID bulbs, it's getting to be a bit of an epidemic! Everything from little Clio's to big old mercs seem to be running them at the minute. If you want...
Do you have projector style headlights? If not - please don't put the HID kit back in as it just blinds other road users. If you have got projectors then no problem!
But the first post says you've got a new one already? If that's faulty then get the supplier to replace it? How have you pin pointed it to the alternator if a multimeter is showing that it's charging etc?
Maybe it's time to get a mech/garage to look at it instead of blindly throwing money at it?
Not my sort of thing to be honest and i'm no traffic light racer. It's not really that kind of car and would struggle to get away quickly I think. I'm 31, and not really interested in traffic light gp's!
Of anything in particular? I can get various videos sorted, once the weather is better! It's currently pretty wet so next to useless! On the way home in it last night it decided to light the front wheels in 4th (it was dry at the time!) hence the trying to kell me!
Well, it's had it's map. It's got Shark Performances Stage 3 map on it now - which is good for 310bhp and 370lb-ft with the right mods. As i'm still running the std airbox and exhaust system (to keep the stealthiness) i'm not expecting it to be near those numbers but 280-290 and 340lb-ft i would...
