power gains

[danny1]

getting a maxogen and full prospeed system on the weekend can i expect any power gains?

 

[Clarkie172]

yes.id say 175 bhp, maybe a bit more???

 

[Fred@BTM]

needs an ECU modification to get the best out of those mods

 

[danny1]

would i get more if i added a bb tuning ecu upgrade or is there a better one i could get for maximum results?

And a cliosport sticker.

 

[danny1]

got one thanx made it much quicker

 

[greg_m]

get it properly mapped with a RR session.

It needs to be done to your car for the best results, as manufacturing differences exist.

Contact Andy @ GDI for an SMT6 )

When you add a ITG Filter do you need to re-map anything or have it tuned in anyway, or is it just pop it on and it works fine?
Im also thinking of a Prospeed system at some point.

RS clios tend to run lean with a performance exhaust and filter...best to upgrade the ECU or go for a fully mapped piggy back unit...plus you get the best from the mods/engine!

it CAN work, and will work, they tested it themselves.....to an extent.

People get hung up on how sensitive the F4R is to modifications, an air filter isnt going to blow it up. Although i have seen one case where something along those lines has caused detonation, but the proof wasnt substantiated beyond a guess.

However, you will always get the best out of any modification by altering the fueling and ignition curves, but it isnt 100% neccesary unless you carry out a level of mods which WILL undoubtedly push the engine into lean running conditions.

 

[Fred@BTM]

wise to get the Air/Fuel ratio checked on the rollers Ben???

 

[BenR]

very.

but hardly anybody can be bothered lol.

 

[danny1]

also adding a sports cat and its been booked in at gdi for an SMT6 what bhp am i looking at with these and the above mods.

cheers dan

 

[Gary G]

Danny, dont bother with the sports cat imo...just get a de-cat as Charlie @ ProSpeed will weld flanges onto the pipework so the originaly cat can be refitted come MOT time.

Good move on the SMT6 but with just exhaust and filter the gains wont be massive....will just result in the car being alot smoother, a bit quicker and safer (peice of mind knowing its not running lean). Definately worth your while checking the group buy for the AWT modified inlet manifolds as along with the mods youve planned and the mapping you should se a nice gain. Best to get as much done at once as additional remaps of the SMT are £150+vat i think and the manifolds arent all that expensive.

 

[danny1]

up at gdi next week going for the manifold work aswell as the smt6 may be happy then.
