What mods are needed to make my willy go 150?

Mine does 137 on my private runway :wink: when it bounces of the limiter (its a standard willy 1), with a gunnerchip what will it hit (i have a gunnerchip just no1 to fit it)

i know its possible, my mate got overtook at 160mph+ by a clio 1.8 valver turbo and he was on a CBR600, he spoke to the guy aftewrwards who reckoned it is 300bhp+ and is the fastest clio in the UK, he then took my mate out in it and my mate said my williams feels like a moped compared to it and 1 day later my mate sold his CBR600 and bought a Fireblade RR 1000CC as was pissed off he got done by a clio.

Surely a different gearbox would be needed??

Just rebuilt with a longer 5th, or if you just want top speed stick a diesel box in it

Ya, and obviously higher rev limit helps.

your clock will hit 150mph. so 145+

Diesel box and a steep hill if top ends your thing! i had 154 indicated and 144 gps out of my 1.8, (chipped cammed rather fast one) but the hybrid wont go higher than 147 speedo and 139 gps, Valver manifold i reckon 6800rpm and not much higher

Last diesel box i used would have given a speedo indication of 170mph :lol:

^^^ :lol:


ive had 150 (was slight downhill) out of my williams against a 172 cup and a mini cooper s.

my roadangel was reading 148 and the others said they was reading the same.

i had exhaust and filter

ive had mine off the clock when having a duel with 2 live. its the quickest i have ever been, and The bin can construction made it feel like mach 1....its not like doing 150+ in a porsche now is it ! lol

i ran a laguna box.. a mad ratio. fuel economy was awesome.. also sitting at 70mph at 3k was brill...

the change from 1st to second wasnt so good, bad rev drop.. i could hit 110 in 3d lol

i think i might know who was driving lol. let me guess. was this about 18 months+ ago?? the clio in question a subaru blue one?? lol


will be nick reads old un no doubt. raced him 3 times at usc.....beat him twice ;)


as for top speeds. jesus' old un with the diesel box had an immense top end. iv seen mine off the clock, with passenger downhill admittedly, but would pull 140+in std trim.

my first Williams box I had would do (speedo not GPS)

1st - 45ish
2nd - 68
3rd - 110
4th - 140
5th - WELL off the clock

and totally standard apart from that... only problem was you need a ski slope to get it on cam in 5th... or the Saddleworth hill on the M62 ;) lol

The 172 will hit 160mph on the clocks, 151mph on GPS and with more to give... it tends to run out of road before all that though, but top end pull is savage

Id like to hit 150+ true speed in a clio, it would seem like you were flat out on a go-kart! but im more for ballistic acceleration more than anything, will try a derv box when (not if but when) my valver box dies

Yep it sounds like the same car (subaru blue) but his name is phil i think so he must be the new owner and lives in preston, and no it wasnt 18months ago was a few weeks ago

so whats the spec?

not 100% sure on spec tbh. but the build of it runs into circa £30k.


high boost 1800 f7p , bbtunings r&d car, hence the price tag, nick paid for the co.s r&d basically.

he sold it adi in warrington, a while ago, adis now banned surprise surprise lol. he sold it on again, must be to theguy ur man was racing.

tis a quick un tho. def a bike chaser lol.

My mate is going to ask him to take me out in it soon hopefully :D will put ideas in my head


So what do you reckon it would be like against Maxiboys when his is finished?

where are you from 2live? the NW?

2 live
11-10-2007, 12:10
aye. just t'other side o burnley from you.

he had to put the 15s on to get decent 1/4 times, but on the 17s it was a mid 14 sec car with nick driving.

is a very nice car, not ott, the kits just right.


a labour of love .

Sahme nobody tested teh tb clio top speed. I bet that would of cracked over 150 easy :)

Dan_mk1
11-10-2007, 17:30
Only if the limit was higher than 7k, with my hybrid its not lack of power stopping it cracking 150, its the rev limiter.

nicks was the original.

but mine should be quicker as it has a roller bearing turbo, more headwork and cams plus an lsd. yes i,m running 18,s but with very low profile rims so there not much bigger than the standard tyres.

i,m not sure the difference between the two would be major but i,m working towards 350bhp. as long as i can waste super bikes on the welsh roads i,ll be a happy bunny :twisted:
