    i dont kno why but, 1st and 2nd gear atleast iv managed to get the revs higher than when it hit the limiter in 5th if that makes sense. basically it felt like the limiter came in slightly earlier in 5th.... not that i realy care that much, how often do you do 150mph, as long as it gets to about that region fast, thats all that counts. id settle for 130mph if it accelarated raipidly to it... whats the standard mk3 vr6 box geared to in 5th? (capable of top end)

    the civic would have beaten a mk3 vr6 with those mods... yes the gearing is very close on the ctr's hence the 6th gear too. vr ratios are good for forced aspiration as they need more torque/power to pull through the longed out gears heance 70mph in 2nd. its a totaly differant story in my mk2 golf tho, its much lighter so the engine pulls through the gears much quicker, the revs build up so much quicker than when the engine was in the mk3. i destroy civic's even before the 268's. just goes to show making your car faster is not just about adding power!!

    mines booked in at stealth next week. i would much rather prefere for vince to map it with the maf tbh, as said above, without it, the ecu wont know how much air is being brought in, so it may run without it plugged in and may even create good power, but imo will run lumpy etc... but good result jay glad its sorted

    hi guys... what hose did you use for going off the throttle body to the AFM? and where did you get it from? i kno its a 90 degree bend, but the throttle body is i think 74/75mm and the afm is 80mm..... they dont do this type reducer and i dont want it to leak. im getting desperate as the charger needs to go on this week and ready for mapping with vince next week... cheers

    if its from a mk4 1.8T its a 3 bar i think. vr's with chargers runnin 240bhp+ need the 4 bar, so id doubt youl need it for just breathing mods tbh then again, corrados run 4 bar pressure as standard and there quoted under 200bhp standard so might be worth a tri...
  12. 6potmkII
    as above guys, need a big silicone 90 degree bend comin off the throttle body? need it for my charger setup... cheers

    if you say u have a missfire, that will play a part in your consumption. when mine was missing, it was down to a dodgy afm, and my consumpsion wouldnt go over 12mpg!!! best thing, give it a service with plugs, if still missin, try leads, as there common to go too, if not afm. but prob best to get it on vag com after the service
  14. 6potmkII
    25mpg's not bad, at the mo, im running 268 cams, 6 branch, zorts/filter and no cat in a mk2 golf and mine reads between 22 and 27 around town. it also depend what mods you have, all the common mods that are done first like air filter exaust cams etc will create more air flow therefore you engine will consume more fuel... having said that my chargers goin on next week with bigger injectors so probably on its way to about 10mpg lol
  15. 6potmkII
    its basicaly a diagnostics machine. it will read fault codes stored in the ecu and most of the time tell if something is wrong. as said before, before you start trial and error, get it on vag-com. colud be many other things like, lambda sensor or air-flow meter. when my 1st vr was runnin like ***t, poor fuel consumpsion etc etc, thats what it turned out to be.
  16. 6potmkII
    thought so.... thought theres an chance it might be like the zr1!! cheers
  17. 6potmkII

    i would first check your dizzy and rotor arm, and replace them for piece of mind, and which leads did you buy 6months ago? ud be lucky for cheap leads to even last you that imo.... so it may well be them again
