Whats mod's are you running to get 136bhp?

mine 1.4 16v got a 7.5k limit running 136 bhp :)

9k limit! must have pistons as rods in to do that, and on diblias inlet? Nuts, TB's (real ones) would be a much better option.

its in the garage at the mo due to having a 9k rev limit and a driver that doesnt know the differance between 1st & 3rd. 9k in 2nd then bangin it into 1st int r8 gud 4 it .

9K rev limit shit that ought to do it LOL so he aint got throttle bodies???? if he wants to optimise what his got he should run throttle bodies and stand alone managment they will cope with the cams better

i'll try an remember it all but i'll probably miss sum.
dbilas inlet,lexmaul 4 branch,powerflow straight thru with not cat,stupid amouts of head work,huge cams that dont idle,fuel pressure regulater,chip with 9k rev limiter,bmc airbox,magnecor comp leads,denso iridium plugs,stripped out wi cage + buckets,15" comp mo's .

yeah that aint bad matey i can only manage about 8ish and i still got to get the engine finished, and still got parts to put on, got ARP rod bolts and a Lexmaul stainless steel manifold in the garage, not putting these on till i know the insurers wont write me car off!!!! if not me engine and all parts off me car are for sale

Think my sports around 9/9.5 0-60. Which isnt that quick. But anything under 10 is deffo a bonus! lol

It carnt be that quick these engines are good for gaining BHP but struggle with gaining tourqe a 160BHP 1.6 GSI will only just be as quick as a 2litre one and still might be behind then would lose out top end, whats ya mate had done

Around 450 notes for a total recondition. Luckly its under warranty from the gargage I bought it from, so they were paying for it.

Its was smoking like a bastard...poor thing! :lol:

me mates got a 1.4 16v and its rapid . im talkin civic type r fast . he's spent sum mega $ on it though .cudda got an let wi an 6 speed bow and still have change for money he's spent .

look at my picture it replaces about 2foot of inlet trunking and 450 degree of bends in the intake to create a short straight run for the inlet charge, get them from Courteney Sport mine cost £585 and fitted it myself

Mantzel power box?

WTF is it? What do they do and price? Me interested:D

Look at the pic to the left thats a mantzel power box matey, its for my 1.6 GSI but the same for a 1.4 expect around an extra 20BHP from this

Dont bother with power boost valve cos ur running the same injectors + fuel pressue as a 1.6, just a different map (chip).
Search for "inlet manifold", "de-cat" and "throttle boddies" if u want more power.

throttle bodies or mantzel box too

Cams...

I think the car is a DOHC engine. Any idea on how much a cam kit is too buy?

I know you have to add the extra $$ for fittings, but Im more interested in bare prices right now.

manifold, high-flow cat, cat back system, re-mapped chip, cams, vernier pulley theres most probs many more

Hey people, need some serious help tuning my 1.4 16v sport.

Just had new head gasket and valve seals yada yada. Fitted a PVD BFO cone which sounds great. What else can I do??

Its an ecotec engine, can I get a power boost valve for it?

Just ordered -40mm springs and a strut brace.
