#77: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: Chris180, Location: northumberlandPosted: Wed May 18, 2011 4:12 pm ---- Nah I'm still trying to fit my oil cooler at the minute which is turning into a nightmare, spoke to Kyle and he's happy to do the work on the car with the cams so we're just waiting to see if this new part will sort it on yours first before doing anything else.
keep me posted on any news from your end
#78: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: kingdom200, Location: Leamington SpaPosted: Wed May 18, 2011 4:53 pm ---- yeh i will do mate i assume if they get it early morning and fit it tomorrow i should know what its like tomorrow night buddy so fingers crossed it works for one and two it feels a s**t lot more responsive
:-D..... f*** the dyno print outs im on your team from now on as long as it feels quicker i dont care what dyno says :-D...... how is yours running though? still feel slower than before?
#79: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: Chris180, Location: northumberlandPosted: Sun May 22, 2011 5:01 am ---- I wouldn't say its slower but having lost a bit of low down torque the slight gains top end don't make up for it at all,
#80: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: Chris180, Location: northumberlandPosted: Fri Jul 01, 2011 9:31 am ---- Well I'm about to set of on a 4 and a half hour drive to stafford and I'm dropping the car off with Kyle tomorrow morning for him to fit the cams then back to r s tuning on Monday for the mapping.. looking forward to getting this sorted once and for all
#81: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: kingdom200, Location: Leamington SpaPosted: Tue Jul 05, 2011 4:25 pm ---- how did it go mate. Kyle told me you got some good results
#82: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: Chris180, Location: northumberlandPosted: Wed Jul 06, 2011 9:25 am ---- Updated original post with info on cams fitted and results from mapping and dyno printouts

yeah it got some good gains with the new inlet cam, kyle sorted the timing out as he said it was miles off
the car feels great to drive now although it has stalled a couple of time when the revs are dropping back down to idle while the engine is still cold...once it's warmed up its perfect though

So, important question - how much has the whole process (cams, kyle, remap) cost (roughly), if you dont mind me asking.

Makes you wonder whether buying a 180 is a bit hit and miss with how powerful the engine is out the factory.

i'm honestly scared to try an add it all up but it will be inbetween £1500 to £2000, they've basically been bought, genuine water pump bought, geniune belt bought, tensioner kit bought, fitted twice, and mapped

yeah they do seem quite varied, kyle claims his is running 195bhp, dom is getting his done today i think so will see what his makes. i'v heard that the clio 172's all have hand picked manifolds so they are all alot more similar but the 180's just must get shoved together anyway they come

yeah cheers, i always wanted to hit that magic 200bhp mark whislt staying away from forced induction but it appears i'm along way off yet, i think lowering is next though before any extra power, and a few track sessions now the summers here

yeah they do seem quite varied, kyle claims his is running 195bhp,
The last dyno i wont on to be truthfull i dont belive as it was very old and proberly way out but was nice seeing that on screen
But there is a place down road from me that has a new dyno so i be proping there soon to see what she does as she is now and then with a new lightern flywheel

And why your AFR line isnt smooth. And I think 12 AFR is to much for N/A engine. As you can see when you going far from 13-13.5 AFR you are losing power. You have to fix you AFR 13-13.5 on full throttle.

You have now seen how difficult it is to get more power out of the 180....
