Expected Gains

[Aydon182]

On my clio 182 ff

Matched Inlets + PTFE Gaskets
K-tec Supersports exhaust no centre silencer de-cat system
ITG Panel Filter
K-Tec 438 Cat Cams + Remap Package
Running V-Power

What sort of gains? Will this see into the 190 bhp Mark?

Thanks, Aydon.

matched inlets and gaskets - a few bhp
ktec exhaust - 1-2
panel filter - 1-2
cams i have no clue.

i speak from experince of having done all of that (apart from cams and decat) and gained 7bhp :clap:

It does all depend on how strong your engine is to start with. You never know, but you may have a weak engine that puts 160ish out and to see 30bhp from cams is distant. On the other hand, you may have a strong engine and get mid 180's before tuning.

Just out of interest, how many miles has yours done, and what's the service history like?

Hard to say, those cams have been producing good results mind.

I was running 170bhp and 144lbft on same spec then 186bhp and 157lbft with 438's fitted. But like people say all depends on your engine.

Engines on 54,000mls and has been services regularly, pulls really well but don't have any friends or
Know anyone with a 182 to compare. I did a 0-60 test myself with my iPhone and saw 7 seconds flat with a bit of
A crap start so seems to be healthy?

EDIT: it was 6.8,7.0,7.1 seconds 0-60 on 3 tests that was with just the exhaust system decat, still haven't got the ITG or matched inlets in yet though.

Don't think you can judge a cars health with an iphone App mate.

 

[Aydon182]

I guess not but just saying the 0-60 times I tried my car with seem to match what's expected of it, it's defiantly not doing any sluggish 8 or 9 second 0-60's.

Only way to tell would be to get it on a rolling road and get a base figure. Don't expect 182bhp though.

I'll just wait till after the cams etc am really hoping to be in the 190's but I'm sure I'll be happy regardless, I know they don't make 182bhp std

179bhp standard, 182 was ps

My car had FRSH before I bought it at 46k. It has now done 52k and has been serviced every 2k by me. (oil and filter) Last month it made 173.7bhp which is a little disappointing but what really can you expect. The 438's have seen good gains. 16bhp from at3k- so going on that info if I was to fit them I would see maybe just 190bhp. Your engine maybe similar to mine or totally different. There is no way of telling until you stick it on the rollers.

Most didn't even make that.

Some break 190 with that spec and a custom map.
