The billet steel flywheels from Kalmar Union for non duel mass flywheel clutches as on 850's only weigh 5.3 kg, I doubt you will get a cast iron/cast steel flywheel down to this and be able to...
Not so Dave check out MOI ...............
I'm sure spesh doesn’t give a s—t because he's :insane: anyway, but he is enjoying a 6-speed Volvo close ratio box designed for the S60R/V70R but with a 4.00:1 final drive fitted by Ford in the ST &...

In all honesty mate you could have saved a...
Your welcome mate, I can see why you might be wondering as ATM only claim around 30 bhp more for their RS map, perhaps the RS Focus H tuned had a problem, was fixed, then re-mapped :wink:
Hi Alan the RS engine also has plasma coated liners which stop the cracking problem here's a link to the ATM web shop which lists their products and power/torque figures which might interest you,...
Marco is back in the country next week so if you fancy a one on one MTE custom map give Don a bell :smile:

Its no secret Russ they have just managed to do what Volvo have not hence the 2.4 T5 instead of the 2.5 T5. Nissan are doing a similar thing I believe. Not sure if it will help you though as your...
IMHO I think you have underestimated the Ford RS engineering teams ability, time will tell :)
IMHO if an open deck liner goes oval on the non thrust sides due to excessive heat then it will crack, when this will happen depends on the liner material and its heat fatigue values. Period.
If it...
Mine does :finger:
Well I can’t believe I’ve just read those 2 posts, two of the most ardent RICA supporters that I’ve ever met have now become turn coats to another brand of map :wtf:
