better performance

[Ash parry]

Hi folks will getting the cams changed and remapping make my 172 quicker?

It will make a difference yes.

Not a huuuuge amount though.

 

[Liam B]

Yes, but arguably not worth the money for the performance gain. Turbo on the other hand...

 

[Ash parry]

Can they have a turbo put on them? What sort of price we looking at?

 

[holtt]

plenty of threads regarding both subjects mate

 

[Gray]

Yes.

Vague ballpark summary:


cams plus fitting and mapping about 1500 quid, gains of if you are lucky 15bhp and 10lbft

turbo plus fitting and mapping about 5 grand for low boost, gains of 60bhp+ and 80lbft+

hi boost turbo with decent brakes and diff and gearbox rebuild etc, about 10 grand, gains of 150bhp+ and 150lbft+

You get change out of 3k for a low boost set up from ClioTurbo don't you?

Dont know the details on that mate, if so thats good if that includes fitting and mapping and uprated clutch etc.

A quick copy and paste from one of his facebook photos -

"This is a low blow 182 running .5 bar of boost with a hybrid 2860 pulling from 3500 to 7250 on a Adaptronic standalone ecu fitted and mapped all the turbo kit for only £2850!! 227.5 and 206lb torque more power would have been made with 99 fuel but owner has issues getting any 99 fuel in his area. !!"

I dont know how they do it for that even without an uprated clutch.

But fair play
