Yes i work in a R&D department for ROV's.
just u talked a LOT about january... it's now april and no-one has seen nothing.
Not trying to dis your work, i appreciate the time and effort u put into these things.
I would just say, dont promise dates you cant deliver.
No one in the general public has seen anything.........Updates have only been forwarded onto people who are actually part of the prototyping phase.
And if it was just the F4R's then it might be a bit of a deal, but were doing 9 engine varients.
As for delivery dates, i said they should be done for end of jan.....as infallable as this industry is, we've had dates pushed back for reasons outside our control.
We havent offered them for sale or taken money from anybody who isnt part of the development phase or who doesnt know me........so i shouldnt worry yourself over my timescales.

F7R? :evil:
I really shouldn't but I can't wait to see what this is all about and the possible gains to be had.
i love throttle bodies 
Jons power is so useable, i was a little scared at the thought of driving it in all honesty but i was well suprised, the power delivery is sooo smooth there are no flat or lumpy bits in the entire rev range, after 250+ miles of driving it i was very confident of its power. Giving it utter death down some country lanes, supprised you didnt hear me Ben hehe.
Its alot smoother to drive than a standard 172. I dont claim to be a master far from it, but i can compare my 172 pretty much identical, W reg, ali bonnet etc, same suspension, to Jons throttle bodied one which i have driven a far whak now and say if i had the money and are willing to put it into a clio i would deff get it done without a shodow of a doubt

Andy J, Got to respect that Ben is self funded so R+D will take longer as he has work to turnaround aswell as concentrate on other projects....

None of my business, neither is it yours TBH
In psychology its called the fundamental attribution error. When other people screw up we attribute it to their personal shortcomings, but when we screw up we blame in on factors outside our control.

Yes, full kits will be available worldwide.
I'm pretty sure it wont be too hard to convince me to come over to T&T

No rush for me. No more tuning till my warranty runs out next March.
Ben's goodies should be up and running by then, and time for me to save up an ox choking bankroll.
Clio 172 MK II
anybody interested in bodies needs to wait till Jan, there will be some exciting new developments
shhhhh
any news BenR?
I am after some ITB`s, and I could wait a little more for your product
A few of us Aussies are hanging out for this! We have bugger all choice in performance parts for the clio out here so an ITB alternative (is that right?) is sounding awsome!
I was more referring to things never actually getting done... no bother now though, I no longer own that car or i'd be chasing you up believe me

yeah I'm not surprised lol, the thread went off on one a bit when everyone start asking Ben when this mystery product of his will be available.
TBH, if you want ITB's I'd just go for it otherwise you could be hanging on forever and there's no guarantee this new product will be as good as the old tried and tested body/carb route. Plus you cant replicate that porno noise on a single TB either

ease of use for who though? you the tuner or the end user?
superior construction quality and ease of use is great, but of no real advantage if that's all it is :S
I take it your predicting this new bit of kit to make more power than ITB's and cost much less?
