16v 10 times better????bollox!
sorry chaps ive just looked at this thread and im kinda late but to say 16v is 10 times better is abit rough to say the least!!i did the old air flow meter trick turning thet little cog three teeth clock wise and mine runs smooth as you like no didgi lagg for me! 16v 10 times better????thats complete crap!!!yes they are faster and yes they have more bhp but they dont put out 147.2 lb of touque do they??????no mine does!!ok ive had a conversion done and yes the head has had alot of work done on it but its what ever youre into at the end of the day not becuase its fact that 16v are ten times better than the 8v that aint fact thats f.o.s rant over!

lol faf :grin:
I did say it in jest, i thought that was obvious!
-
:grin: And to just add a little fuel to the fire here are the correct ratings
1.8 16v
139 bhp
168 Nm / 124 lb/ft
1.8 8v
112 bhp
153 Nm / 113 lb/ft
the graph below is the factory figures for both engines is standard trim. (no point comparing anything else)

-
nope it was a general question directed at anyone who wanted to answer. I did.
bigger and better things? Not really, your torque isn't from a standard car, neither is mine, so your comparison against a valver was a bit flawed. Have a nice evening. :smiley:
-
you didnt read what i had wrote did you?i explained that mine had bee tweeked with the words(conversion)???? or were you unable to read that part.fact1 i said they werent 10 times better cos they arent!!!they are better but not 10 times!which was actualy stated that it was said in jest by mk2gti.check again slick effect!!it was actualy a question from dubslug to me so no it wasnt a question asked in general at all nor was it offerd out to anybody to answer!not that i mind anybody answering it,.so lets get our facts right befor we start ranting about something you obviousley havent took the time to read.have a nice evening your good self! :nerd: :grin: :wink:rant over thread ended!game on!
-
it was actualy a question from dubslug to me so no it wasnt a question asked in general at all nor was it offerd out to anybody to answer!not that i mind anybody answering it.
Err no it wasn't a question from dubslug to you, you came into the thread and put all of that followed by a load of question marks. If you didn't mind anyone replying then was there really any need to throw your toys out the pram?
you didnt read what i had wrote did you?i explained that mine had bee tweeked with the words(conversion)???? or were you unable to read that part
yes they are faster and yes they have more bhp but they dont put out 147.2 lb of touque do they??????no mine does!!ok ive had a conversion done and yes the head has had alot of work done on it
your torque isn't from a standard car, neither is mine, so your comparison against a valver was a bit flawed.
yeah must have mis-read that part of the post then..... :huh: :rolleyes:
yes they are faster and yes they have more bhp but they dont put out 147.2 lb of touque do they??????
No and neither do standard 8v's. Compare it to a modded valver and it will beat the 8v again, as i simply pointed out before you decided to have a hissy fit.
Now being locked as tbh there was no need for all this.

i've split and locked this load of guff. if anyone has a problem feel free to pm me. i did it because it's a pointless arguement and doesn't help out in any regard to the original question...

Spoil sport :wink:
Totaly off subject again :grin:, how do you quote from loads of different posts in 1 reply? Ive only figured how to do it for 1. Does that make sense? Do you just have 2 windows open and do a load of cut and pasting?
-
^^ just do a bit of clever deleting and quoting....
