Thornberry Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 What should a roadsport 1.6 ford sigma 150 bhp s.v warmed up sit at? What should it comfortably rev to in most gears still giving good response? It only has 6000 miles im looking at getting it at the start of may.

Domus Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 950 RPM is the idle speed of the 150. To get this set up properly you need the Easimap software and the correct lead. It is a bit fiddly but a bit of time and patience will see you right. Lots of info on here. Others I'm sure will be along shortly Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisC Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Yep, just search 1.04v and you will get all the info you need to get it sweet.Peter you forgot the Syncronometer ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom_Arundel Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 150 will chug along at any revs above 2000 if set up properly but for reasonable progress use 3000 - 6000 and for rapid progress 4000 - 7200. Rev limiter is 7400 soft cut and 7600 hard cut. 150 has less mid range torque/power than the 140 but more at the top so needs to be `worked` more. You`re getting a bit excited now! Hope the weather improves, I was out with the aeroscreen on today....not great in the fog! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisC Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Mine would pull 5th from 1200 rpm. Fantastic engine, and lovely noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thornberry Posted April 12, 2018 Author Share Posted April 12, 2018 Thanks everybody, ordering some soft bits directly to jon victors so he can pop them in the boot for me. Test drive on 11th/ 12h may super excited. Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
