Has anybody with an Si actually managed to make it more powerfull or even have quicker acceleration? After reading the site bout how induction kit & exhaust don't make a diff, i don't no [ERRR] to do ...

by **Excursion** on Tue Sep 30, 2003 10:38 pm

It's not worth doing anything with m8, seriously.

by **festasi** on Tue Sep 30, 2003 11:46 pm

a few bits are useful for the 2.0 conversion u [ERRR] do if u have the money!

by **AdrianFRST** on Wed Oct 01, 2003 8:41 am

The only thing worth doing:

Yeah, tbh you can make it pick up a little quicker with an exhaust, and filter, but anything else isnt worth it!

by **badboy si** on Wed Oct 01, 2003 3:33 pm

[ERRR] even if i only get a straight throgh pipe and box? or do i need to get cat and manifold to make a diff with an exhaust

by **Fiestasi-Andy** on Wed Oct 01, 2003 3:34 pm

Well i've got a RS1800 TB, piper X Induction kit, full SS Mongoose & chip............but i wish i went for a 2.0L

go from 1.6 to 2.0

Think that was Dave106Gti when he had his black Si. I think it had only exhaust and induction kit which is suprising.

Fiestasi-Andy - What difference did you find with your superchip mate?

by **Fiestasi-Andy** on Thu Oct 02, 2003 9:58 am

@ zetec_si: well its a http://www.motorsport-developments.co.uk/ but may work the same well, the car pullled alot better but its bot that good on fuel now cos of the mods & chip, not arsed as i'm getting a 2L conversion like yours soon

by **badboy si** on Thu Oct 09, 2003 10:13 am

were does the 2L come from for the 1.6-2L conversion? how much would it cost?

by **Fiestasi-Andy** on Thu Oct 09, 2003 10:28 am

badboy si :were does the 2L come from for the 1.6-2L conversion? how much would it cost?

Cool, must have missed that little lot!!

Get it on the RR!

by **zetecrs** on Thu Oct 09, 2003 5:36 pm

you got 4bhp from an k+n, zorst and a chip! bet you were gutted!

by **SimonT** on Fri Oct 10, 2003 10:23 am

If i remember right the Si was decated, had a 57i and also and very importantly had the EGR system removed! This frees up the exhaust gas flow through the manifold releasing quiet a bit of power!: D

Am yet to do it to my 16v 2i but im sure it should see me 5bhp

cheers

Yeah, it does give you a bit more power. My EGR has been removed too, as it restricts the exhaust loads as the 4 prongs sit right in the flow of the exhaust.

by **Fiestasi-Andy** on Fri Oct 10, 2003 11:11 am

whats a EGR?

Where is it EGR?

Can i take it off?

by **Fez Si Boy** on Fri Oct 10, 2003 11:14 am

what about if you added kent cams rated at 12 bhp, surely the Si should produce 102bhp? and maybe add an exhaust like scorpian to push it up to 105bhp like an xr2i I would of thought?

your gettibng little in & getting little out, if u get me

get a 2.0 or 1.8 zetec

by **MaXsteri** on Fri Oct 10, 2003 11:36 am

zetec_si :My EGR has been removed

Removed how? Just by taking it out of the manifold. Or by replacing the manifold with one that doesnt have the four holes for the ERG to sit in?

by **SimonT** on Fri Oct 10, 2003 12:19 pm

you have the probes in the exhaust manifold removed and the holes blanked off (these plugs can be bought from fords AFAIK)

Whats the point of spending 500 quid on a kent cam set that wont even see XR2i power?

You can get a 1800 engine for about 300 quid!

More power for less quids!

by **MaXsteri** on Fri Oct 10, 2003 12:27 pm

Right then second question. Anyone know the part number for the plugs? :bonkers:

by **Fiestasi-Andy** on Fri Oct 10, 2003 12:31 pm

Ring Ford up.

Can this done yourself DIY

by **MaXsteri** on Fri Oct 10, 2003 12:39 pm

Like the guy behind the counter will know what im on about :lol:

He can just about spell his own name!

by **MADMATT** on Fri Oct 10, 2003 1:34 pm

Hi guys what does EGR stand for and what the hell those it do?
is it a simple:- take the system off pull the sh!t out, then blank off the holes?

what system manufactors would you guys recommend for a 1.6 si? full system,cat back, cat back with cat bypass?

thanks for your time

EGR= Exhaust Gas Recycler. It injects air into the exhaust to lower the emissions I think. Trouble with them is that they sit right into the manifold and bugger up the flow. What would be the point of me having a stage 2 flowed head and ruining the flow with the EGR. Holes have then been covered as said.

by **MADMATT** on Fri Oct 10, 2003 4:24 pm

i see now

right i think that will be coming off asap.
what do you lot think about the exhaust question?

cheers
