decat
inlet matching
remap
pannel filter

saying that, i had a tussel with a trophy. It had decat, cat back exhaust, viper and angelworks inlets and it was EVEN. I actually got the jump on him with one run. My 182 is compleatly standard.

 

[Fred@BTM]

no YS parts on board that'll be why (joking)

lol

 

[rory182]

as we all know the engines vary a lot, some are tighter than others due to how run in etc and mileage on them. So the trophy might have had fook all mileage on it.

Inlet match makes the biggest difference for the money I would think.

I would say remap make's the biggest over all diffrence for the money, but if your doing other mod's remap should be last on the list!

How much we talking about for inlet matching....and what sort of gains?

 

[baz79]

apparently my mate off here reckons it would be around the 200 quid mark....

and would probably take it up to 182 bhp as i believe 182 does not stand for bhp isnt it a french equivalent?!?!? or am i talking out my arse????

what exactly does inlet matching do??? like what exactly is it and what does it do...... in english!!!

 

[Black_clio]

182ps=179bhp

and a 182 is even 179bhp without port matching inlet tract and re-map because of the sh1te casting on manifold

 

[Black_clio]

the head is machined therefore near perfect everytime, the manifold and plenum are cast and are of varying quality

a 182 with an RS inlet will gain very little according to Ben R, they are very good as standard.
