#1: Q for 180 owners please Author: broadblaster, Location: south coastPosted: Tue Jul 17, 2012 1:22 pm ---- i have 2 180's and one of then kicks very hard when the vvt kicks in,the other one yes you can feel it working but just does not kick so strong.
i have swapped the vvt valve between the 2 cars and still the same,so i am trying to work out if the first car has be remapped in the past or if the second car has other faults.
so could you tell me how hard yours kick in, hard to do i know but first one is like a mini turbo but second is much softer.

#3: Re: Q for 180 owners please Author: imjeeves, Location: Glasgow / WellingPosted: Tue Jul 17, 2012 1:38 pm ---- Yeh as Edward said VVT is progressive not instantatious power
#4: Re: Q for 180 owners please Author: broadblaster, Location: south coastPosted: Tue Jul 17, 2012 1:40 pm ---- ah ok as said on 1 car its real strong on other just feels weaker in fact on the first car it feels like a honda vtec system when it come on song. also just to add that when the 1st one was RR'd it came out at 177 bhp which is another reason as to why i think it may have been mapped in the past.

#13: Re: Q for 180 owners please Author: NICKST, Location: Little hulton (worsley)Posted: Tue Jul 17, 2012 2:19 pm ---- Well if there identical then I would put it down to one haveing a map lol
#14: Re: Q for 180 owners please Author: Barking, Location: sarcasm-in-shedloadsPosted: Tue Jul 17, 2012 2:22 pm ---- I remember someone saying that their 03-plate and my 54-plate engines were different because one had a floating crank.
If that's true, would it make a difference?
#15: Re: Q for 180 owners please Author: broadblaster, Location: south coastPosted: Tue Jul 17, 2012 2:26 pm ---- think i'm just gonna have to put the second one on a rr and see just how much diffrence there is. or try to find out a way to see if the ecu's can be read to see if one's been mapped.
