extracting power from f4r

[Chip-mk1]

Surrey is pretty conservative. Same car would no doubt see 200 at circuit or Jdm etc. lol.

 

[RSprojects]

Every post has been helpful, you just don't like what they say.

 

[Gally]

real world figures you can subtract around 7hp from the ones you've posted, without spending thousands you won't be much above 180-183 on a good day, again being realistic

i can sugar coat it and say you'll be up at 190 but the i'd by a liar

Ah words of the wise.

Well, I appreciated their feedback even if you didn't. LOL!

This.

Knowledge is power and all that (no pun intended)

 

[Greeny.]

I agree that my post was helpful and based on my experience

Lol, talk about Rose tinted glasses.

im running schrick cams, bhp uk remap, itg pannel filter, ktec stealth cat back on a ph1 172. not 100% what power im running but it beats my mates golf r32 and keeps pulling away from it, and i beat a standard 172 by around 6-7 car legnths. even if i get a s**t start. so yeah, spend a little cash and its defo worth it. im guessing mines around 190 bhp

Is your mates R32 broken? Or has he got something stuck under his pedal?

 

[ianm172]

nope it dynod at 246bhp on a cold day. also smash my mates 330ci bmw. every one i know with a 172 they all go well

Which Schricks are you running fella? And are you on stock ECU?

 

[ianm172]

not too sure tbh mate, it was cammed when i bought it, think there just fast road, ill try find out now because my mate knows the fella who cammed it. stock ecu just remmaped. it used to not like iddling too well in the cold because of the cam, but sits nice now since the map, still nice and lumpy but alot smoother than it was

Yeah, that's why I was wondering... I don't know of any (many?) folks running Shcricks on a stock ECU. Definitely makes for a lumpy idle I would have thought!

 

[ianm172]

it still ran fine before the map, but its just alot smoother now, dont feel the higher end kick as much any more because ive got more power now lower down the revs, its defo worth it tho if anyones thinking of doing it. noticable differance over a standard 172-182.

ATpower itb's
421 cams
Little bit of head work
All balanced
Arb rod bolts

Simple

 

[SharkyUK]

LOL! ^ Can't really argue with that

 

[Advikaz]

well its proven you get 3hp out of induction kit alone so i think i'd see about 4-7 plus better mpg

Lies.

 

[Fred@BTM]

schricks (plus a few other bits )

 

[Adam G]

:quiet: Thought that was standard!

 

[Fred@BTM]

i'm building a similar spec at the moment

 

[danh90]

Basically unless someone tells you what you want to hear its not helpfull? about right! Theres people commenting in here that will have spent/blown plenty of £££ on clio's so definately know what there talking about just take it on board!

That thing looks f**king balistic in the video!

Epic video

Only watched a bit of it but some great drving there!

 

[danh90]

Some very good starts. think i caught BIGASH car in there too

Ah but I bet you haven't persuaded the same for Zoltan's bus.

Yeah, YS Clio doesn't hang around. I've watched that video a couple of times now; very impressive! I'd love a spec something along those lines.

Fast!

 

[Aydon182]

Is your mates R32 broken? Or has he got something stuck under his pedal?

R32's are slow

 

[Jay Payne]

i told him id have him off the line. He was still surprised

 

[Chip-mk1]

He shouldn't have been with that much inertia.

 

[danh90]

Lol you sure did that.. You defo seem one if the quickest of the mark judging by that video

 

[ian-speedy]

Easy peasy to get tidy power out of them , 242hp and 178lb ft , haven't added the bill up but will end up £6k to £7k by the time it's all finished lol

I'm expecting that power having spent roughly 2k

 

[Fred@BTM]

won't sound as good though

 

[danh90]

We will see next week ..

If that comment was to me

 

[Chip-mk1]

won't sound as good though

ITBs do sound epic thats for sure.

Mind you he will have about another 70lbft of torque so its not all downsides with the turbo

 

[Fred@BTM]

i never came across a boosted clio that was unpassable on track (yet!), they'd pull a bit on the straights but they'd be reeled in under brakes/through the twisteeez and out of the corners, i remember some years ago @ FCS Bruntingthorpe where we "entertained" the crowd by having a bit of a doo with the BBPT turbo clio, we passed it then there was a Noble something or other doing passenger rides, oh how we upset him LOL!

Thats down to the rest of your brakes/handling package being superior though I would wager, or possibly you being more committed which is how Ive beaten a lot of cars on track that I know were quicker than mine, like this M3 I passed at combe, only reason was he wasnt trying hard enough to stop me, his car could have done:

I bet if you got two identical cup racers, turbo'd one to 300/300 and fitted your 242/178 engine to the other and left all the brakes and suspension setup as they were that with similar drivers in each the turbo would be faster round every track in the uk!

 

[Fred@BTM]

nope the NA clio would be quicker as the turbo one would be parked up with a broken Sadev (only rated to 180ftlbs remember )
