had enough with the valver manifold. it coming off in favour of a supersprint which should arrive this week... also sacking my decat away for one where the flanges are flat. .. got the spirit level on and it hadnt been skimmed true. always wondered why i could never halt the blowing... still backfires tho ..lol.

valver manifold is good for torque, but it has majorly sacrificed mid range and top end power...
so as it stands:

2.0l megane btm end 1,8 head
cams, wildness unknown..lol more pointed than standard.
supersprint manifold
primachip(temp measure)

will be field testing a variety of maps this week/next.. in order for york dragway,

Are you going to get it remapped when you're done? 1.8 head will raise the compression ratio. In my experience upping the CR totally changes the ignition timing.
