R19 with Williams head .

[Bird]

What would the benifits of putting a Clio Williams head compleat. With cams be on my 19 16v ?

If any what other mods would help . Eg any chip for ecu

Or even just fit cams . Any ideas

not terribly much, assuming its in good nick then a small gain.

The extra power over the 1.8 is mostly from the extra 230 odd cc capacity

Cheers . What about 270 piper fast road cams

 

[Chris H]

this is a question that has no answer?

What is your current engine like?

Most say its great when they are down 30 bhp.

A strong standard 16v will have a min of 120 bhp at the wheels.

Most that get on the rollers often have less than 100 bhp at the wheels.

Throwing new bits at a tired engine will never yield the desired effect.

I would say very good nick to be honest still pulls verry well my m8 has Clio 172 and it's not a fanny hair slower that that till 90ish ? Has s/s decat cal-tek exaust and cold air intake . Just scream 270 cams in my eyes .

 

[Chris H]

well get them then, its only money :lol:

 

[Bird]

Wish it was that easy lol . Going to get carbs set up first then cams . Well that's what me plan is but see what happens

 

[Chris H]

the carbs will need further tweaking with the cams being changed though

 

[Bird]

Yeh will be costly but hopefully should see some nice gains with the already high revving f7p . Hoping to have it compleat by the fcs . Will be my first meet .
