Hai! Schrick cams on a TDF mapped standard ecu. Idle is fine. Not too lumpy. Works perfect from cold.

What power you getting now?

Yeah, fair enough mate - just didn't realise you could really make the most out of the Schrick's on a stock ECU with remap and without a lumpy idle.

not 100% yet mate, its getting RR on Friday afternoon so ill post it on here. Im guessing between 180 - 190. Dont really want to chase figures tho, it goes well so that's all im bothered about
Speaking of gearboxes

That's what matters the most really isn't it. How the thing drives. Post up what it makes though

it sure is. Yeah I will do as soon as I get back from there
Im convinced that many people on here debating about a couple of bhp increase here and there should sell their clios and buy a wrx... Of course its your own choice to spend money on your car to chase power but if you dont like a stock(ish) clio you probably wont love a highly modified one - especially when you start to regret all money you spent...
just my 2 cents
ps if your clio is a dedicated track car and you are a rich b*****d then obviously this doesnt apply

We are trying to compare night and day here surely.
I've no problem with turbo's on a raod car.
But I am old school, and n/a is for me in a comp car, power delivery etc etc.

We'll see
Hopefully very soon and then everyone will agree that turbo power is for men and na is for little boys.

The problem with n/a is all that lag
Exactly my thoughts, I have my turbo for road and n/a for track. I'm old skool for my young years where I would rather have a BDA mk2 or a 6r4 before I would have a group N or A evopreza.

Sometime this year my boy, sub 60 second's is where you'll have to be....hopefully :quiet:
Wouldnt want an RS200 then?

Off course, my cars there were priced accordingly against each other, going into proper group B car £'s then it would have to be a short wheelbase quatro or delta integrale, the ford would be a close 3rd in turbos.
Even at that money, I'd probably just buy two mk2 escorts, one with millingon duratec, sequential box, 17" wheels etc etc and a proper old skool BDA'd one, got to be one of the best engines I have heard coming through a forest.

You dont think the metro 6r4 you mentioned is a group b car? :S And you think a BDA mk2 escort is similar cost to a group N imprezza?
Tell you what, you get just one BDA mk2, and I will swap it with you for 2 group N imprezzas even though they are worth the same, I dont mind, FLOL
I'll swap you just one 20 pound note for two 50p pieces as well if you like.

That's exactly where I'll be when the car is sorted. 63secs before with 170hp so fingers crossed. :race:
I know a 6r4 is a group B car but there was de tuned versions made after they were banned so they could continue to rally and that is why you still see a lot of 6r4's in comparison to "proper" group B cars (quatro's/stratos/integrale's/rs200) and that reflects in the price for them today. Obviously if you have a factory original full fat 6r4 then it's ££'s.
I know the cost of a BDA engine, sometimes 50k iirc for the engine alone (if you can get one)then there is the car on top, you can get complete used BDA'd car for around 50-60k leaving me 20k to by my super modified mk2 when a Group N and A cars are 75k from the likes of pro drive.
For what its worth I'd sooner have a BDA Mk2 escort than just about any other car by the way.
That or an original 60s Cooper S are my idea of automotive perfection.
But I wouldnt pick one if I was trying to go fast compared to a group B car for similar money!
So I dont think its as good if speed was all that mattered, but I do prefer it personally.

Should be easily achievable when you consider the minis are doing 63's with 130 ponies. Did you get a rough lap time in your current spec 230bhp????? car?
No you don't buy them to be competitive, you buy one cause you want to. There's a guy at KH that runs his reportedly £120k BDA in smrc classics and its the business, always in battles with Morgan aero 8's of all cars and he gives it punishment, some thing to see.

Nice.
You seen Nick Staggs mk1?
Was keeping pace with a 500bhp Scooby round Pembrey when my mrs was doing a trackday there in our old mk1 clio, just to prove you and Fred's point again me for you, lol
(difference in weight being the reason BTW)
Its a BD on slides and sounded like it was using about 9Krpm or so, totally epic, should think 100K would only get you about halfway to owning it though, lol

You've not met Andrew have you? I still remember it being in the passenger seat when he blew it up.
What ever happened to that car Fred?
I can believe that, marshals mk2 can lap in high 58's, now compare that to Renshaws evo and it gives you an idea around KH.
Its nice but it's missing the mexico decals
The noise is what there all about, reminds me of a v-tec how they rev on but the difference is they don't sound like a fart in a bean tin.
5 seconds slower and probably twice the cost of car and far lighter, boost wins again, lol
I'd still have the escort though of course!
Did it have remoulds in the video lol? Sounds like its on plastic tyres.
Corners more like its on full slicks, lol
