I've just recalibrated the chassis dyno in the workshop... It hasn't been used for a while and was a job that needed doing... I've ran the 182 on it, and at 6k RPM was reading 148bhp at the wheels... so it doesn't seem too far out!
I wondered if anyone local had recently had their car dyno'd...
Yup you got to pull your cost way down! I can build a full Bluetooth compatible ECU for under £50!
And voltage regulation isn't that bad in the automotive environment now days... Stuffs got a lot cleaner!

Hi Chet....
I am a recently graduated Electronics Engineer myself. Now a self-employed freelance engineer for various companies...
I've been following you since the start with this project as I have always wanted to do something similar myself. Unfortunately I just haven't had the time to get...
I found that once I had flashed someone else overrun map I could never read my ECU again.... is anyone else experiencing the same thing? I can only load maps on now....
I bought the overrun map in the end but it didnt fix the problem... no replys from Henk at all... 0.
Quite like that... To many fonts though IMO... I'll edit it to the sport font later.. I have that saved somewhere.... I think all white might be best as well....
What tyres did you go for? Thinking about taking the rainsport2's off for this as hopefully it will be dry..... Trying to decide what front pads to run as well... Ds2500 are £££! Might stick with standard ones?
It is different to my Key so I couldn't look that way. Can you send me/post a hi res pic of the PCB. I think that's the LED drive resistor. If it is we can calculate a value.
Anyone want to have a mini meet up one night this week? Wednesday night or something?
Stowmarket? Ipswich? Eye Airfield?
I need to go out and get some pictures of the car so it would be a good excuse!
I am reasonably local and have an RS Tuner if you need help. (Mendlesham in Suffolk)
I must say, I had a very similar thing with the 182 a few months ago.. cranking... no start... was banging my head on the wall. It had no fault codes, but I cleared them for the hell of it (cheap OBD reader...
I know if you want to use the tuner on multiple vehicles you need to buy more than one licence. But if I buy a licence for my second car, can I still use the RSTuner on the first car once I've used it on the second? Or do I need to purchase a 3rd licence to swap it back to the first car?
Does...
1. DannyR - Ph1 Clio 172 - 250bhp
2. potter88 - Ph2 172 Cup - around 165-170bhp as Standard apart from ITG Panel Filter and Catback
3. Greeny. - Ph2 172 - Anything better than my previous 174bhp
4. T9 0LLE - Ph2 172 - Never had it on a dyno, running BMC Carbon Filter, Decat and Piper exhaust

I've got my eye out for a set of springs.. anyone got a set sat in the shed they want to sell??
On that note, I have some 1.poo springs sat in my garden that could be free to any EA member who wanted to come and get them :)
OK, I wish I had read that an hour ago....
I decided to try it anyway... You'll never guess what... yes I had a nice 182 shaped silver brick on the driveway....
With the help of Ross-Lakin I now have my car back... All be it I now have to use a special version of the software or it wont pass...
I have mine all working, just flashed the 98RON cal.... Going out for a drive now.. It starts anyway :)
I have a pops and bangs calibration here.... Just not sure it will work though as it was bought by somebody else....
