Yeh i have, but head is a 1.8 and insurance still class it as a 1.8.

Myers16v
13-08-2005, 20:38
Besides its still a 1.8 at heart. Becuse i cant call it a willy and if its a 2l i cant call it a valver (and i love my valver).
so its a misfit :cry:
or a valver on steds :D

1.8 over here! £4000 for a 2ltr? Don't think so!
lol.. yeah i fit my own for less than a grand
i told the DVLA my car was a 2litre, showed them a engineers report stating 2litre bottom end 1.8 head..
got the logbook back saying 1800 cc.... Tell the insurers that !
they classify as a 2.0 ! lol
i got a 1.8, ive always felt its a bit of a slow one though, plus now i think the headgasket is on the way out, so may go the 2 litre route hopefully!
yup i have a 1.8 here aswell, pulls nice

Yeah mate. You wont be dissapointed as long as you get a well looked after one. Ive had mine side by side with a fiesta rst flat out at just over 130mph. Actually i was a bonnet length ahead and he couldnt pull past lol :wink:
A valver would batter an xr3i mate. I used to keep up with them in my old 1.4 rt 8)
Your making the right choice :P
hes asking about an escort s2 mate not a fez pop lol.
The escort s2 is pretty slow in comparison! my mate used to have one and got a valver and the he says the valver is a hell of alot quicker than the rsturbo! plus on paper the valvers kill the RS. shame they are turbos and easily tuned to big power tho :(
Andyvalver
02-12-2005, 19:03
Yeah i know mate. fiesta rs turbo has the same engine though, dont it?
Same performance pretty much? :?
I'm 1.8!
Who needs 2lts \:D/
Dancliovalver
03-12-2005, 11:48
Yeah i know mate. fiesta rs turbo has the same engine though, dont it?
Same performance pretty much? :?
and on paper the escorts are slower coz they weight more!!

Thats even better then :P I stuck slightly ahead of a fiesta rs turbo at just over 130 :twisted:
im now the proud owner of a white 1.8 16v, only probs is its got playboy bunnies on the numberplates, noooooooo!!!! :oops: but it seems alot nippier and on the edge compared to my fat slug off an xr3i, happy now!! will i be able to b have a standard vts off? whats the comparisons!?
vts & valver are very similar depends on the particular car iMO
2l will kill a vts though :D :P
Andyvalver
06-12-2005, 14:02
I agree with Martin. Ive had a few blasts up to a ton with a vts and it was very close. Not sure which would edge it after a ton though tbh :?
I have 5 of them! So i'm the best.
2 technically are engines in a shed but that matters not, 3 are in cars.
I'm certainly not a 1.8 boy, I'm a 1.8 girl!! :D
Andyvalver
06-12-2005, 20:36
:shock: Your first post too girly :wink:
