197 top into 172

[howie p]

just seen a pic of the 197 engine bay, the induction section is totally different.

is it possible to have the same set up on a 172??

anyone done or tried it?

Why bother?

I hear that someone did it just to see the difference on a rolling road and they found that it gained 3hp and but a drop on torque?!. But not sure if its true or not!

Could have seen a few hp mid range and a bit less torque at top end or mid range who knows.

For those gains forget it can do better with other mods.
