DOOOOK Posted 7, July 2015 Report Share Posted 7, July 2015 Injectors that need replacing? Sorry I can't help much. It may require professional diagnosis. Great to see you back with the awesome F1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanSA Posted 13, July 2015 Report Share Posted 13, July 2015 Fuel most likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedfiend41 Posted 13, July 2015 Report Share Posted 13, July 2015 My R26 did this intermittently for months - drove me mad! I had it checked several times by the dealer and they could never find anything wrong. Just one of those annoying things I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Paps F1 225 Posted 13, July 2015 Author Report Share Posted 13, July 2015 Thanks guys so far it has not done it again im hoping it was just bad fuel as the guy I bought from said he had not put fuel in it for at least two months.. On another topic does anyone know if fast chip by Henk in any good.. I already have a larger intercooler from Forge in the UK, exhaust is next then tune... Wondering if anyone elae has any ideas, I want this babybto get over 200kw and at 400 torque... Thanks once again How do you download pics on here?

chuckovski Posted 13, July 2015 Report Share Posted 13, July 2015 Can't help you with any tuning, but re pics, the only way I've been able to upload any is via Tapatalk. Do you have that app installed? It's a great way to follow a thread but I've found it hopeless for searching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOOOOK Posted 14, July 2015 Report Share Posted 14, July 2015 For information on fastchip have a read of these threads: - http://ozrenaultsport.invisionzone.com/index.php?/topic/21480-rs-tuner-now-availablebut/ - http://ozrenaultsport.invisionzone.com/index.php?/topic/23056-things-to-consider-before-remapping-your-car/ The simplest and cheapest (in the short term) way to get to 200kW and 400Nm is to boost it to 30psi and you'll achieve your goal. Have a look at Members Rides threads to see what other 225 owners have done to reach their stats: http://ozrenaultsport.invisionzone.com/index.php?/forum/17-members-rides/ To post pics, click on "More Reply Options" which will then provide you with all of the editing options.
