Norrie.

 

[davels]

Thank u norrie i do too

heres a quick vid of it, cant really see the dial cos it was soo sunny the phone couldn't pick em up. but it was 40kmh to 120kmh twas busy so i couldn't do full 8k revs or a 0-60 plus this is with standard exhaust and all windoews shut too

sounds good

 

[davels]

phones crap for getting sounds o and after a quick calculation that was roughly 25mph to 75mph

 

[air121005]

sounds nice mate!

the kind of sound that is going to need to be heard on a daily basis

drink your fuel your fuel at the same time i suspect though


i looked on your photobucket page , at the custom code power graphs

185.9bhp & 290.7 ft/lbs

apart from the green filter, had you done any other mods to achieve an increase of 55.9 bhp?

suprised that the milltek caused a loss in bhp, but very impressive @ 27 ft/lb gain

fingers crossed the 4WS system stays dandy or it will be big bucks especially being an import.

But looks ok, bar the import wheels. Why is it the japs build such good cars but their wheel choice is never great, That LSD will make you the envy of most uk spec prelude owners as i don't think was ever available on UK cars.

 

[davels]

very right there Ant only the imports had the leather seats, lsd etc.. not even an option on UKDM's. as for the 4ws it's spot on at the mo but if it does go down the swanny i'll just switch to 2ws for a cheap fix.
as for the wheels well at least you didn't notice the fronts arew on the wrong way
they will be changed asap

Hello Davels. Just read this thread, now i understand why you are driving a Lude. Any mods done yet? My fiend has one but also has alot of money and tools needed to shoehorn the 2.2 vtec lump into the bay with Apex? ECU and VTEC controller, intake manifold and full custom made stainless exhaust. Needless to say it gargles the petrol but by george its fast. Dyno'd at 212bhp at the 9k limiter. He knows his stuff bout Jap cars, shame he played with the ECU and VTEC controller because even my Clio beat him a month ago , dont think it was running 212bhp!

Either way, not a bad choice of car fella.

 

[davels]

cheers bud
only minor mods like a spoon chip and air filter so far, plus some second hand 16" TSW alloys to replace the crappy stock ones, twin loop exhaust is next i thinks but blow a hole in my rad so thats first

 

[Rosco906]

to much tec then mate lol

You been upto much? Hows the new job going?

 

[SparkyWatt]

Sorry to hear about the holey rad, not good. how did you manage that one? Not more wildlife????

A guy that bought my Clio last week also did the engine swap in the my friends lude and was planning something for my Clio. He told me today he has a race prep'd R5 lump sitting in it now. i pitty the fool that drives that thing!

 

[davels]

ello rosco me to much vtec..... nahh!! jobs good tho thanks, could do with more money but couldn't we all huh
sparky mate nooooo no wildlife this time looks like the plastic top has had a bit of a twit twat at some point and burst a leak when i was on my way to Middlesbrough to pick up some second hand alloys. should be picking up a new one some time this week of a guy in peterborough

 

[Rosco906]

I'd watch with the vtec abuse, my mates buggered his eg vti lol

 

[SparkyWatt]

Could it be my mate flogging his spare wheel from his alloy smashup a few weeks back. Nah surely not.... Enjoy the VTEC, but my mother always said everything in moderation!
