the new inlet manifold by Angelworks and icarus ; any news ?

[Icarus]

Well I rather am as I'd like to recover some of the several thousands of pounds I put in to develop this............

 

[Gaz_]

........ another added to the list then, flol

 

[Tucker]

Lol.

I held my breath until I died (inside) then sold the clio.

 

[franx]

... i hope there will still be spare parts for the 172 available from Renault when this manifold comes out They're supposed to produce parts for 15 years after production of the car has stopped so it may be tight here

 

[theduck]

Matt, clear your inbox

Hope you get it back pal! I sold my parts, and learnt from my mistakes.

Also hope you get this inlet sorted eventually.

 

[franx]

WHat's the latest ??

 

[Gaz_]

It'll never happen, forget it

 

[Martin_172]

lol i waited for this for months then gave up and sold the car so i could just buy something faster as i didnt want itbs or chargers im a standard ecu man!

 

[en035]

really interested in seeing the results.

 

[fraserd007]

It'll never happen, forget it

sorry, but i have to agree.

 

[Icarus]

All components, drawings etc. are with Ben at AWT who is producing it. Afraid I have no information on when this will be.

 

[en035]

so where is BenR ? haven't seen him online for ages.

Possibly after the next ice age!?

 

[TimR26]

Has this got as far as being tested on a car yet?

 

[Icarus]

Yes the production prototype I tested on my 172s has been running on a race car in the UAE with success. Hence my wish to see them being produced soon as!

 

[en035]

any ideas about the price?

 

[john lloyd]

don't think any prices will be discussed until the first few are made and exact costings etc

matt - get your stuff back off him and try and find someone else? give it naith.

 

[Naith]

thanks for throwing me in but dunno how i can help lol...

 

[Andyman]

any ideas about the price?

Same as the supercharger topic you asked the price on, search this too, its been mentioned ...

 

[franx]

Alper, price would have been around 1600 i believe.

 

[Icarus]

I said it could be no more than £1200 as a complete kit. However all this is up to AWT now as they essentialy own the project.

 

[en035]

thanks Frank and Icarus, what are expected gains 10-20 HP's?

 

[franx]

that's right, i remember now (was looooong ago )

Yep Alper, i believe this would have supposed to bring it over the 200
Would have loved to do this mod on top of the cams , exhaust manifold etc. ... The price is great for the gains too.
When looking at the inletmanifold as it is now; long and loads of curves, there is good gains to be had with a different manifold i think

 

[Mike_182]

Are there any pictures of this?

 

[theduck]

Dont think so Mike, not in public domain anyway.

 

[Naith]

its nothing pretty lol... but was effective on matts wagon.

shame that angelworks dont run a sound, in order and concentrated promotion and business setup. he'd stand to make alot of money. hell i could do his promo and make him lots of money...

 

[d4ve86]

interesting thread, from what ive seen this inlet is coming along well

 

[RSTuning]

If anyone has spare fireworks they'd go well up Ben's arse to get him moving faster

more profitable to just take people's money and do nothing though

 

[Jonny1*2]

cool. thought this was pretty much a dead project. good to hear matt :approve:

 

[kristian]

i hope this actually happens at this rate my 182 will be long gone when its finally released!:dapprove:

 

[2 live]

lol.cars will be flying in the sky before this gets done imo

 

[franx]

^^

 

[Dan R]

sorry, but i have to agree.

Said it from day one! and I got slagged off to high heaven about it but looks like I and many others were right!!

 

[MarcoB]

Gone overkill on this.
Powerboxes for vauxhalls are 170 quid. Whats the difference apart from the inlet holes+ tb size...
Why not keep it simple and f**k angelworks off.

it's well known that the stock inlet on those was deliberately restrictive, those box plenums make a big difference

 

[Andyman]

Im meaning the build, quality and design iirc which would probably have been on the same lines as AWT's one off inlet on the 1600 which was posted up on another thread. Dont think you could compare the above link one with the one that is / was going to be built for the Clio.

If it was as simple as knocking up some lengths of tin and flogging it for 100 sheets a time, sure it would have been on ebay years ago

 

[KungFuSpaghetti]

When will people on here learn lol
