Guys based in Wakefield up here in Sunny Yorkshire DavidHawkins give me a pm if u want his number
Kniterider just look at all my old posts along the lines of FFS it's doing my head in and I'm going to sell it!!!!
It still went with 93 bhp but I knew something wasn't right I just couldn't put my finger on what it was. Pretty standard engine-wise bar a 4-1 stainless manifold and s/s exhaust, Polished and ported head, Drilled airbox, K&N Air filter, Polished throttlebody and thats it dude so well impressed.
yes Rubjonny E reg 88 valver so Tiny brakes and big bloody engine!!!

[workhorse '90 8v]

Awesome

Anyone know where the nearest rolling road to Aberystwyth is?

[Agreeable Slick]

errr you try running nearly 200bhp through 8v brakes, makes for some interesting moments i will tell you.Still a G60 brake set up coming my way soon. Good results for a valver.

just a small change before and after!!!

[Deefadog]

Nice one!

So what exactly was wrong?, or what did he do to rectify the problem?

[monzablue16v]

Allsorts of things!! mainly in the way it was set up it was running very rich, pinking, timing not advancing, timing set wrong, reset ECU and checked fuel pressure etc seems to have done shedloads and the difference is amazing before it was quick, now it's fappin mental gets to about 3 grand and goes crazy pulls llike a train and goes like a rocket!!!  as feck!!

far canal ! What a difference that must make. 

Monza, where in Wakey is this guy ? I'm not going to get any of those gains on my cabby but it would be nice if it could be checked out and tweeked slightly ! PM the address and number if you will, it might be worth having a quick drive down the M1 to see the guy.

I guess there is only so much you can do yourself, getting set up on a rolling road is best way of sorting it!

i have just rang up my local (only) rolling road garage - £48 + VAT for an hour

I am going to take it there next month, but i want to be prepard on what everyhting should be set at, advance timing etc, can anyone tell me what all the settings should be on a kr 16V?

[monzablue16v]

They should know these things really mate!! I don't know what the settings are but generally they'll just tune it until they get it right hopefully anyway! surer someone will have a more helpful answer but I just gave him my keys and said here it's doing my head in fix it will u please!!!

wow thats quality!! the only thing i'd say, deefa, is take it to someone who knows a 16v it may cost you more but if the rolling road has no specific knowledge he might not help things at all.
