Can someone explain to me what exactly is happening when an engine pops and bangs?

hooch-85

Unburnt fuel exploding in the exhaust.

"Pops and bangs are generated when an explosion echoes in the exhaust. This is either fuel touching the hot exhaust before exploding, or an explosion happening earlier in the system and reverberating through the exhaust. The most common way of achieving this is by retarding the ignition timing so the fuel/air mix ignites later in the engine’s cycle. If timed correctly, the exhaust valve will be opening to allow gas – along with pops and bangs – to escape. This is what most commonly gives you the effect."

Just to update on my poor Honda, insurance are happy to cover it so I'm delighted!

My friend brought that car in from UK last year... Lovely car.. had different wheels on it as standard... Those ones now look great on it. Hope it works out for you.

Ah no way, the exact one that I have? I know it was written off in the UK before I had it as well!

Got my front splitter and rear diffuser on, front looked very unfinished without it.

Looks the business GF.

I think they definitely need the rear one , never liked how far the tips stick out from the factory. Looks the part now!

Both the BMW 540i and Cupra look class!

Very nice bazz!

How is it to move down a bit with regard to the interior?

Out of interest, where did you get the splitter?

It's a Rieger splitter. You can get them on eBay handy enough but I got these from the spoiler centre up North. Cheap and quick delivery too.

It's not too bad to be honest, the oyster colour interior makes a huge difference to them:

Fit them yourself?

Looks great!

Thanks. They're fairly straightforward to fit but a ramp would have been much handier and saved a lot of cursing.

It does indeed. Makes it feel fresher and more spacious.

That is class! There is not enough high power petrol ones around.

Cheers lads. Picked up in the UK last year - absolutely love it. Straight six is unbelievably smooth!

Few nice petrol models popping up in here lately though.

Yup your exact one, I checked the reg to make sure. he bought it at auction, it was only two panels damaged from what I remember, I'm not sure on their grading system but it was recorded damage rather than written off? I never got to drive it but he said it was more show than go?!

If I remember correctly that's a proper mugen spoiler on that car which was rare enough? The wheels on it now suit it much better!

Even found a pic of it!

Didn't have a French Car since my 405 about 20 year's ago so here we are €1950 with a full tank of juice Laguna Coupe with a Bose sound system and full Leather which are sport Seats!

Really nice to drive only hard getting used to a manual after 5 year's of Lexus autobox! Plenty of toys on this to keep entertained on my daily commute!
