C4 COUPE Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 Hi last week i bought a pipercross induction kit from halfords to put on ebay because it was very cheap it is for a c2vtr 1.6 16v but i thought i might try it on my c4 vtr 1.6 16v you guessed it fits like a glove im so happy because i only paid £32 for it so grab one if you can they retail at £88 or so Quote
wozza Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 Anything designed for the 1.6 16v engine should fit. The 1.6 in the C4 and C2 is basically the same engine as was in the 106 gti and saxo VTS. Just you can get a pipercross kit for free off them if you leave your car there :) Quote
C4 COUPE Posted April 8, 2006 Author Posted April 8, 2006 cituning dont know that they fit because i phoned them they said they dont know when one will available for c4 vtr i just thought i would give it a try for £32 Quote
wozza Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 Just a 1.6 16v TU engine. Really quite easy to get parts for to tune them to be honest. Get a nice exhuast and ket some cold air fed to that filter and a remap you shoudl be seeing 130ish bhp then. Quote
C4 COUPE Posted April 13, 2006 Author Posted April 13, 2006 cool but where and how much would a remap cost i live in cornwall Quote
wozza Posted April 13, 2006 Posted April 13, 2006 http://www.angeltuning.co.uk/ £260 +VAT and they will come to your house or work and map it there for you. WIll give a 12bhp gain on its own roughly and iron out all the flat spots and give better response. THey have a money back thing if your not happy with it afterwards you dont pay a thing and they wil change it back to the original map that the car had. But on various other forums they come highly recommended. Quote
C4 COUPE Posted April 14, 2006 Author Posted April 14, 2006 cheers for that,,,,,,,,,,,,,have you had it done? if so have you noticed a difference ive also bought some lowering spring eibach ones but because of rear brake prob not fitted them yet so waiting to get it sorted then i will fit them itching to put them on though Quote
wozza Posted April 14, 2006 Posted April 14, 2006 Not had the remap done yet no planned ot when i had some spare cash though. Just i had to pay my tuition fees so that kinda buggered that up lol. Was after the lowering springs myself though so let me know what it feels liek on those when ya get it sorted as well. Quote
Stuey Posted April 14, 2006 Posted April 14, 2006 damn you people!!!! I am having to give my credit card to the other half so I dont spend money on the car... on a random note, how would that affect the warrantee?? Quote
wozza Posted April 14, 2006 Posted April 14, 2006 It apparently doesnt affect the warranty according to angel tuning due to the way it is done plus its supposed to be undetectable. :) And you gave your credit card to the missus?! Well there goes the money anyways lol. Even worse than spending it on the car lol. Quote
