feck_on_a_stick Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I wonder how all that work and expense would translate to actual real world gains? I suppose this only really appeals to a limited number of people. Slightly off topic though..... Can that manifold heat shield fit easily enough to our engine?

I suppose this only really appeals to a limited number of people. Slightly off topic though..... Can that manifold heat shield fit easily enough to our engine? Probably not a lot! These engines are difficult to eek out more power whilst staying N/A, need many monies to make a small gain! What heat shield? I know there's usually one fitted as standard so finding a second hand one should be easy (he says!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiNK43 Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 Yes, if the speed drops low enough 2nd is never going to cut it, a quick blip and slot into 1st wins the day. Put the engine in an eg with a short box. That sorts out the laggy 2nd gear! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krzys Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 or a better final drive... that sorts 2nd gear out nicely I bet that is still awesome acceleration compared with the standard set up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
