    100% complete 172RWD! - updated

    what you need to do is get going on it again and hit a mile stone so you feel like you have acheived something. then it will bring back the motivation to finish it. you cant just give up. youve done most of the hard work.

    Dissapointed in ktec stage 2 tuning

    i took mine to rs tunning and pretty much got the same sort of results at first. was making 153 atf but they changed the plugs and knock sensor and that boosted it to 163 bhp without the map. the map then took it to 170 with it on 120,000 on the clock but it has had a bloody good life. all...

    bigger turbo, more power question.

    the measurement is taken from the inlet manifold but thats what i was saying, if the pipework is the same size how does it cause more air to go through without an increase in pressure. i probly sound really stupid lol.

    bigger turbo, more power question.

    so its more to do with the volocity of air that the turbo pushes through, i understand how that makes more power, just thought that this would cause an increase in pressure as more air would be being pushed into the same amount of space.

    bigger turbo, more power question.

    A few friends and I were just haveing a heated discussion on how a bigger turbo creates more power.
