yeah hes in the RAF
hes qualified now by the way, so hes now SGT Worley :)
i did sugest plugs n leads but i presumed thatd cause a missfire, not a complete loss of power (doubtfull theyd all fail at sme time)
hes got a GREEN airfilter, but still keeps orig. airbox.
when i see him...
dont think his car is dizzy... think its a coil pack
cant really remember what it looks like under the engine to be honest... havent seen the car in ages..
im posting on behalf of a friend as im a ford boy...
he tells me that when accelerating the car just stops (says its like its stalled) and will eventualy kick back in.
now hes done the usual plugs/leads change but thats about it... he does say it doesnt feel like its missing, its just a...
point 1: the evo driver couldnt have been trying. they pi$$ on me and mine aint slow
point 2: you drive like a n*b and i hope i never have to be near you when driving for fear of my own safety
detonation=bad
incrasing octane will lessen chance of detonation.
advancing ignition timing will increae performance, but will INCREASE chance of detonation.
so if you want to make car quicker you adv. the ign timing and use proper fuel.
im sure scoobs etc. have a way of knowing what...

problems with converting a N/A car to forced induction (will use turbo as an example, but S/C is easier coz u dont need exhaust manifold)
1) fitting everything into the engine bay (turbo, I/C, hoses, etc.)
2) youll need a custom exhaust manifold to mount the turbo on ($$$)
3) youll...
what powers your saff running? i just got my XR4 blown and would like some comparisons against modified cossies (on paper the twinturbos are faster, but ive never TRIED it in real life)

lol at the orion loving fool... id love to see his 1.6i ghia obliterate a V6 clio
even if hes whacked an RST engine in it hes not gonna be seeing anything past 200bhp.
orions are officially the 2nd ugliest car ever made (nova saloon anyone?) and ford did well by dropping it.
ford fact...
22PSI?!?!?!?! JESUS! if you dont melt your pistons when id love to see that against some proper machnery. have you thought about fitting a controller to limit the boost in 1st and 2nd gears? they were commonplace in RS Turbos whereby you get a switch fitted that will lower the boost (ive...
ok just gonna express my OPINION here and it is simply that...
i dont think you can consider a Saxo as a proper "hot-hatch" its like an SR nova in most ways, the young 17year olds who have them all THINK they are performance cars but when it comes down to it, theyre not. my XR3 shat on VTRs...

its been said a thousand time over but nobody ever listens when anybody tells them... you will find it cheaper (honest, im not lying!) to sell you existing car and buy one with a quicker engine in it.
unless of course you want somehting very different (ie forced induction)
i allways wanted...

the focus RS is nothing like its older brothers. the engine spec may have even cossie owners drooling (even in standard trim!) but the cars still built for the rich git that wants aircon and power steering.
also ford made a horendous mistake with the transmission, i mean who puts FWD on a car...
