not all the parts exactly , but you can have a 182 manifold , either sports cat or decat , better exhaust system , get your inlets matched and a chip or remap done for similar or even more power ....like me
wont get 200bhp though not without some major work done , cams atleast .
wots the standard 172 cup to 60 again?
tiTTy & SV650
that's the mythical 197 you're thinking of...
Mine made 179 brake where 172's were making 169 brake
True tho it'll be well remembered when your sitting in its recaro's goint to prestwick
RS6+ & 40d MSport X5
mine is 3.9 for some reason lol

Renault's engineering department had come up with a better 4-2-1 exhaust system and a freeer-flowing cat, but it wasn't 10 ps. So the rest came from the marketing department.
Renault had released the 172. Peugeot had trumped that with their 180. So Renault's marketing department had to come up with a bigger number than that. A 182 to succeed the 172 sounded good, so they went with that.

EVO rolling roaded a fairly new 197 cup at 186bhp, not bad for a new engine.
I thought the 182 and ph2 172 heads were essentially the same? :S Difference being the ph1 172 had slightly smaller inlet ports but bigger exhaust ports ?

Why does it matter!!!!?!??!?!? You never do 0-60. its always 30 to 100 or 30-120!?!??! 0 to 60 means absolutely nothin about a cars performance
182 and cherokee 4.0
how is this exactly?
Got it in one Jay..
The MK1 172's and cups are pretty much neck in neck..
The 182's aren't far behind with the 197..
Yeah off the lights maybe but it very rarely happens and also it depends how well you get off the line. its usually hard to actually achieve the quoted figures without seriously abusing the clutch etc.
Really?
Power to weight is a good representation of how fast a car will accellerate. In order -
cup - 171
182 - 165
197 - 161
172FF - 156
Dont have a figure for the ph1 but the longer gearbox ratios dont help it.

You'd be s**t hot running a quarter mile :rasp:
From personal run ins with them. From folks experiences and from speaking to folk who have rolling roaded them. They seem to be a bit of a let down from the out going model, performance wise
Yeah but quarter miles are so incredibly boring. Cheap racing for people who cant drive basically!!!!
