GDI/AWT 182, ???bhp

MarkM · Nov 15, 2005

I am picking up my 182 from GDI tommorrow (hopefully).

Spec is,

AWT billet cams
AWT stage 1 manifold
OMEX 600
172 ph1 cable throttle body
viper
sports cat
2.5" custom single exit exhaust
silicone bend

Leda coilovers

Do not have a power figure yet hopefully 205bhp!?

Will post up graph pics etc. when I get it back.

Gary G · Nov 15, 2005

I've seen it

...I'd hope for anything over 200bhp but tbh honest power figures aren't everything! That cable throttle and Ben's cams along with the omex controlling everything should make it rev super quick and pull like a train. You will be one very happy customer

True.

I asked Andy for a road application with plenty of torque/driveability. The bhp figure is what it will be judged on generally but as you said not that important in real world driving.

207

Is that actual or estimate.

What about torque?

Andy GDI · Nov 15, 2005

evening estimate... it will go down before i goto the rollers so i am happy when i come back.

MarkM · Nov 15, 2005

You got me all excited then!

See you tommorrow.

bingo!

and the cams really really do push the midrange torque something amazing.

AliasOmega · Nov 16, 2005

Nice to see some torque figures, i prefer loads of torque compaired to loads of bhp..

BenR · Nov 16, 2005

averaging 180lbs.ft at the moment at roughly 4500rpm.

Andy GDI · Nov 16, 2005

which is infact 500 rpm lower than std torque figures.... so its more drivable than std....

Ali · Nov 16, 2005

How much are the cams alone?

Gary G · Nov 16, 2005

Quite costly mate has they are custom made billet items (well worth it!).....not re-grinds like my trusty ol pipers lol

BenR · Nov 16, 2005

Dont like pushing prices in peoples faces, if you wanna know just pm me

Gary G · Nov 16, 2005

^Like your style

BenR · Nov 16, 2005

did you like my dancing today?

rmccardal · Nov 16, 2005

Poor Gary ... I hope Andy didnt start too !!!

no, andy is pure whiteman and has no rhythm.

rmccardal · Nov 16, 2005

I thought he was pretty good actually ... bit gay, but good.

didnt think you noticed his dancing tbh, not with you gazing into his eyes all the time.

Gary G · Nov 16, 2005

lol, Ross loves you more tho Ben!

rmccardal · Nov 16, 2005

lol ... heyyyyy youuuu guuuyyyyyyyys

Gary G · Nov 16, 2005

Pmsl!!!

MarkM · Nov 16, 2005

Good things come to those who wait.

Picking up tomorrow afternoon.

Andy GDI · Nov 16, 2005

some minor teething problems with the electronics.... just love em... all going well otherwise.

Fred@BTM · Nov 17, 2005

you should've rung me, i could've done your soldering!!!

Andy GDI · Nov 17, 2005

ok fred, would not want to get our wires cross would we

Fred@BTM · Nov 17, 2005

blow torch and some solder, job done

Andy GDI · Nov 17, 2005

ah, that would spred like wildfire

Andy GDI · Nov 17, 2005

anyhow.... I love boogie night dancing... just love it...

George k · Nov 17, 2005

Ben/Andy. Would this package work with the standard throttle body and a remap or piggy back ECU on a 182. My main interest is the mid range torque. How much difference does the viper make, and what about the small actuator on the air intake just behind the headlamp?

rmccardal · Nov 17, 2005

Yes, Bens cams (the mild ones) will work with the standard TB with an smt piggyback unit to control fuelling.

Not a fan of the viper personally, but it seems to give reasonable gains.

Bin the actuator, its pointless

i have just installed my hillpower, i kept the stock feed but added a new one in the lower grill has worked really well no twist or bend but then again i have a cup so it was easier.

this actuator ? is it going to be slowing my car down at the minute ? ive not touched any stock piping just added a new one and am running both + semi open filter. theres no light on the dash and it seems to pull really smothly now from low revs so i dont need to rag it, just blip and use torque.

so is it ok to leave the actuator on or will i get more gains with it off ?

BenR · Nov 17, 2005

if its on, leave it.....no affect.

If your running large bore ducting, bin it.....its in the way.

but i run both straight 65mm bore to semi open + stock feed dual feeds right to filter.

BenR · Nov 17, 2005

lol, pic please!
i cant visualise.

Lagerlout · Nov 17, 2005

I noticeed a loss of low down torque with my maxogen fitted and the actuator removed. Doesn't it restrict the airflow until certain revs ( crankcase vacuum?) for maximum torque? Only what I read... Maybe I need a remap lol

Andy GDI · Nov 17, 2005

worth checking afr....
