Don't they say the response and torque improves with aftermarket filters?

Either it's placebo but it seems to pull a little easier at lower speeds.

But yea, the noise it makes is awesome. It maybe be a 1.2 TCe but it sounds like a 2.0 with the Skytune exhaust combined

It would be better if it moved like a 2.0 :twisted:

well its probably just me but with the BMC CDA it feels a bit slower at some lower revs can be maybe that the car is playing mind tricks on me :shock:

This is my old twingo.. Like this?

 

[MovingShadow]

Araf is my hero.

On the Wind forum he shared us his work of making a coilover kit (AP) for a Twingo RS fit on the Wind.

So any kit for the RS should fit the Wind.. this is good news!

 

[Araf]

Araf is my hero.

You're too easily pleased. :lol:

 

[MovingShadow]

This has been frustrating me for months Bilstein, AP, Weitec & KW all replied that there doesn't excist a coilover kit for the Wind.

I told to Bilstein that it's possibly the same one as a Twingo RS and they said to me.. "if it doesn't fit, we won't give you a refund" so I'm glad you tried it out

Now your only problem is that mine is a 133, and yours is a TCE, so are they the same? :?

Logically, I would presume so that they are..

I'll take my chances and order a coilover kit.

 

[Araf]

Take a front wheel off and take a picture. Post it here, and we can all say whether we think it's the same.

Failing that, just compare your car with the pictures I posted on the Wind site.

That looks exactly the same as mine was (other side pictured), and I've already removed the ABS line bracket in this shot.

 

[MovingShadow]

So it's green light for me

I had loads of fun. Very busy, lots of UK people (some special UK meeting), loads of accidents as well (think it's because the UK people sit in their car on the wrong side :twisted: )

My dad was sitting next to me and I made him grab for the door and looking for something to hold on :lol:

He said I went late into the brakes a few occasions (made the car swerve left and right a couple of times), I only did what yotah told me to do in those turns, "Brake late!"

Afterwards when I went of the track my dad was like.. "did you drive here before??" :lol:

But I have to work in the airintake, at the end I overheated my car.

Yotah gave me a couple of tips, like adding a pipe that goes from the nose of the car to the airintake so more fresh air gets blown into the engine.
There's also a piece of protection plastic in the front and told me to take that out as well as it blocks air from getting in.

The hood of the car was so hot that we couldn't open it the first few minutes I came of the track.

 

[yotah1]

Maybe it was better that I didn´t take him for a spin on the first time then

 

[MovingShadow]

I need to find the same kind of pipes you use for cooling your brakes.

Where did you find those?

 

[yotah1]

I bought them on ISA Racing website, but you can get them from any motorsport reseller, like DemonTweeks or any other
