silly question surely?
20VT Clio & 9-5 HOT
the 2.0 standard is honestly a lot quicker, iv had both, and the 1.8 was tuned a fair bit as well, and it has nthing on the 2.0, its well over a seconds quicker to 100 qhich is a lot when ur doing 100mph, a good few car lengths!
reason 0-60s are the same is due to the williams loosing half a seconds changing to 3rd hear!
see that vid i put up, it hits 60 in 6 seconds, but theres a pause from 54mph due to having to change up to 3rd.
got to admit tho u cant beat reving the bollox of the valver thats what i miss the most!
hehe.....well ive raced quite a few valvers.....and from mid way thru 3rd the valvers are history........
cat .....i used to think that the 2.0 valvers were always quicker than the willys...but get em to same spec and the willy still has the advantage hehe.........just
craig......theres nowt wrong wi revvin the willy a little higher either lol......get that limiter sorted fella
either urs is a very fast valver then or the willy was a very slow un.....adis silver valver was rapid for a valver..no contest with the willy....my old valver was 1 of the quickest on the site when i had it.....couldnt touch the williams......and the willy had less mods
You got to look at the bigger picture, a Williams with that low down torque will be so much more driveable than the valver.
Round a track the Williams will pull on the valver quite hapilly due to better cornering and the fact that the power is there as soon as it comes out of the bend.
I found my valver a chore to keep on the boil not enjoyable.

Well maybe my valvers and good one and i raced a sh*tty williams? I dont know.
As soon as you compare modded against modded the williams will rise to the league above. A valver wont get near them.
Because most of you have very fast modded williams you probs forget how much quicker you are over standard.
no mate not really....im running 0.6 seconds quicker over the 1/4 mile than i was as standard (well de-cat zorst n filter)......which was 1.3 seconds quicker than my valver with same mods.....but even in bog standard trim.....with the cat on etc the willy was nearly a second quicker down the strip........and once there up and running the williams just keeps pulling away from the valvers
as for the 172s..........pmsl

Ive had a tussle with a 172 but it wasnt for long as he turned off and he didnt pull on me. But as i said it wasnt for long so it nor me got to open our wings.
I cant wait for the weston meet. Im gunna test my valver then against some of the others. See how she stands up!
So would any of you guys prefer a Williams to a 172 then?
I personally love the Williams but never got one. I ended up with a 172 cause i wanted something a bit newer but there is very few Williams up in Newcastle. I would personally like one as well but i couldnt get rid of my 172 now cause i do love it. I just feel the Williams looks better with a set of 17s on its arse. Especially a set of Wolfrace Voodoos.
Anyone agree?
