221bhp/ton Mondial Terror
Well it's been a pretty busy week or so for my 172 cup. After having my catcam 428's hanging around the house for 6 months, i finally had the money to get them fitted. So Sideways Danny popped upto my parents house along with a cambelt kit and got cracking. Fairplay to the guy he doesn't hang around. Despite my best effort of constant chatting he got the whole job done in under 3hrs! All i can say is he did a bloody good job. Cam timing spot on! Thanks Danny!
So had the car booked in with Matt(Icarus) @ tour-de-force on wednesday for a re-map. Very nice set up at TDF! Matt was extremely helpful and knowledgeable bloke and was impressed with how strong the car was. After a couple of hrs on the dyno we got the results we were looking for! 194.6bhp and 158.7 ft/lb @ the fly, with 161.6 bhp @ the wheels!
The car was mapped with the cold air feed removed from the V6 espace airbox. Car feels very strong in the midrange and more tractable.
Few pics from the day:

Yesterday i tagged on a dyno day at Powerstation with the clio16valver.co.uk guys and girls. Was a pretty small turnout, but they were a bunch of real nice peeps. So i ran it on the dyno without the cold air feed attached and got 195bhp and 155ft/lb at the fly. Torque curve was identical to the results at tour-de-force with a small dip in the curve at around 3700rpm. So reattached the caf to the airbox and we ran again. Much better result! 197bhp and 157.6 ft/lb, with that dip in the torque curve gone!
So after spending a bit of money on the car and neglecting it over the winter i decided to give it a proper clean. So after a few hrs it looked like this:
Its taken nearly 2 1/2 years but almost the way i want it. Just some 15" oz ultraleggeras, R888's and new discs and pads and its done! With the weight of the car now at roughly 925kg im at a nice healthy 216bhp/ton! Sorry bout the quality of the pics but you get the idea!:approve:
Just want to thank Sideways Danny and Matt @ tour-de-force for their hard work on my cup, Tom @ JMS for getting me the filter on time and Jay (burp) for all the little jobs he's done for me over the last 18months!
