Throttle Bodies On A Valver

[steve740]

Ive started saving up for some of these trumpets lol
I havent seen a valver in the flesh with them on and havent heard any bad stories about them, but you lot on here seem to see and hear everything!!! Does anyone know whats involved with using, running, and who to fit them please? And if posible, a rough price please?!
Thanks in advance
Steve

aint this a bit of a waste of money on the 1.8? surely its better throwin a 2.0 in and workin on that?

 

[Martin]

^knowsit

 

[C8DGY]

Yep bit of a waste dont they cost about 2.5k? with the remap etc??

 

[Martin]

yes 2.5k for a basic conversion..more with custom rad, cams etc

Not cheap then! what bhp would you gain on a 1.8? about 25-30?

 

[Mark E-J]

bout that

but I'm sure he would ask about the 2 bottom end while hes at it

2.0 bottom end and cams are much better value cheaper more power thoguh the rev range before bothering looking at throttle bodies.
2.0 bottom end and decient cams ~180hp.

 

[BenR]

as stated, going larger capacity will give you a faster and torquier car for less wonga.

unless you purely want ti for the noise and to be different.

 

[ross2786]

wat about throttle bodies for the 182 looked everywhere and cant find any

 

[adehook006]

2.0 bottom end and decient cams and the throttle boddies, like craigs old one

def worth a thought

 

[stan*]

ive never had pm's off u mate?

 

[steve740]

maybe thats why then!! lol
Jusy checked out your website but it says its still under construction
what would you suggest I do for more power mate?

 

[cK]

Gdi, and yozzasport do conversions for 172/182's. Not sure if angleworks do but I presume Ben does, although i've never had the pleasure in dealing with him.

 

[BenR]

www.angel-works.co.uk

There arent any fantastically detailed specifics as we deal with so many applications, not just renaults.

But for the tidiest and most complete install, give us a bell.

Or email.

 

[steve740]

Was just about to pm you Ben!
What would you suggest I do for the trusty valver?!

 

[BenR]

entirely depends on your budget, wants/needs........and any particular fetish you might harbour.

cars are personal, some people might be ok with spending more on a 1.8 to get an 8000rpm banshee wailing clio, rather than 190bhp from a 2ltr.

 

[Mark E-J]

already spoke to stan on a conversion for me as i bought is valver without throttle boddies

only problem is i cant decide weather to go turbo route or tb toute

everyone and they dog got a throttlebodied clio whats the quickest?

turbo or throttle boddies?

Depends how much/what spec you build to but the Turbso have More Hp still I'd go to N/A tunning personally sounds better and more responsive plus with a 2.0 bottom end and cams if built well Angelworks car was 210hp or so.

 

[BenR]

Just under 220bhp on a stock bottom end and some relatively mild cams.

If you got the cash, the turbos will always go fastest.........but how fast can you afford to go? A decent setup for 300-400bhp will see you spending £6000-7000.

The same money on a throttle bodied car will only see about 220-240.

everyone keeps telling do the tb route would be easier but

ive had v6 and straight 6 various 4 cylinder 8v and 16v never had a turbo car and always wanted one

but i never want to get rid of my valver as i simply love the clio ive gone from a brand new 55 plate astra sport hatchsri to get my clio and wouldnt swap it for the world

so next logical step would be to turbo the clio but seeing angelworks clio in a vid and hearing it has got me all twisted

stan will do all my work as hes local and knows my car inside out after all it was his before me lol

Basically I want seriously quick acceleration, not too worried about top end at all. Reliability is a must of course!!
Whats the best I could get out of my original engine do you reckon?

 

[stan*]

All depends on your budget mate, as Ben said.

Gearing is the key to altering accln versus top-end speed.....for either to be respectable, the engine needs to offer a decent output.

defo go with 2.0, then concentrate on that. i know of a couple of ok priced williams engines at the moment, and i charge £350 for fitting. based in Swansea btw.

if you wanted to throttle body the 2.0 i can supply/fit/map to the highest standard (i dont do half arsed, like alot of tuning places) for £2500-3000 dependant on rad set-up.

Cams and headwork can also be included....

but it really does depends on how much you have to spend as to what can be done, and so what the end result is. PM/ring me for a chat about whats best for you.
