Hi everyone,
Did a track day in my 172 yesterday, was all going well until the second session when the car just electrically shut off and wouldn’t restart.
Plugged in the RSTuner and the only code I had stored was an engine speed sensor code (presume this is crank sensor) has anybody had such...
Freshly mapped today at phoenix automotive technologies, this turbo setup is finally nice and useable using parameters within the Gen90 ecu that Ktec didn’t use when they fitted/mapped it. Made 247bhp at 0.5 bar and 233lbft torque.
Thought I’d pop my 182 in this thread as it will be going on track one day when I get my s**t sorted out.
@Joah old car but now has the turbo’d engine out of my cup in it.
Just have a few jobs to do and it’ll be ready for an alternative track toy in ‘24!
My 172 I had was mapped by EFI (the go to Renault tuner in the uk) had group n timing and 182 exhaust manifold and it made 185bhp 170ftlb of torque. That had totally stock inlets on it.
Thought I would update on NUP, unfortunately she is now an N/A car again. It was proving difficult to race the car somewhere where I wanted too while being turbocharged.
I had 2 choices:
Sell/break the car and buy something else
Or the route I chose swap the running gear over from my RB 182...
Haha im not smart enough to know that, just Ktec sort it out. Although it’ll soon be corrected at efi.
My car had an AEM piggyback before, didn’t notice too much of a difference to be honest.
I haven’t seen a valeo clutch at that price since about 2014.
Two techs are a good specialist and good guys, spent some time with them when they sponsored a car I used to race. Dick move putting this up imo
I bought this one for my 172 (but total 182 running gear etc) rear right linked.
Fits and works all okay.
