Gavs B18c EK9..


Looking great dude! Lot of effort gone into this 9! And alot of Carbon lol!! Throttle body looks nuts! Didn't catch what management you run? Hope it doesn't cost you too much every remap as it gets so expensive :(?

Cheers man, as for management quite embarrassingly its mapped on Apexi vafc (on the car when i got it:(() which is doing it no favours whatsoever, although it pulls hard and goes very well, with the apexi removed and a good crome map up at henry roys will make a massive difference :D

Let us know if the TB and inlet manifold make a difference?.

I know when a friend fitted a thermal gasket to his 182 clio it kept the inlet manifold alot cooler than without one.

Wont make a difference just now really mate untill its mapped up again as ive changed quite a few things since it was last mapped on the apexi but for n/a engines the vafc isn't by far the best software !
Once ive finished eveything in the engine department will have the apexi removed and a proper chip+map done and i'll notice a huge difference then :nice:
Although took it round the block last night and the new tb sounds nuts with the v2 induction, sounds like it could suck up a horse :p


That Blox Tb is looking stunning in there. Will be a monster when its re-mapped. Love it mate

cheers man, yeah roll on the map :win: :D
