Take off the pipercross induction kit, it's free and it will be better.

what would a ecu remap do?

 

[capey]

if i take off the air filter, wont it damage my engine with nothing on? sorry dont no that much about cars. thats why im here lol

 

[willcrook]

the implication behind his suggestion was to revert back to your standard airbox

 

[capey]

ok so if i revert back to the standard air box and then get the ecu remaped. would this improve my performance?

 

[foxon]

yes.

go for ITB`s and cams!! like me, yeah baby.

V8 transplant.

take off the induction kit. put the standard box back in with an itg pannel filter. remove the acoustic valve from your cold air feed. remove any unwanted items in your car (rear seats/belt buckles, any subs, amps, anything you dont need) all this is free power except the pannel filter (£40 ish)
the more expensive things you could do are internal throttle bodies, high rise camshafts, inlet matching, remap, decat, exhausg system etc etc

 

[Dan@SJM]

individual throttle bodies.^

 

[capey]

what would a decat do. is it worth spending £80?

i had one, no difference, not wort it at all in my opinion.

 

[Shotgunsjay]

leave it as it is, youll only regret modding it,

save the £££ and buy a faster car........

 

[kully]

yes a decat is worth the money

[Ian_182]

If your not going to get anything else done,just re-map it to balance out whats on there

You have a 182 which has almost sports cat already the 172 has a quite restrictive cats so the difference is more noticiable.
