Oh and i got 3200 miles on the clock

Was told it would'nt need mapping again. These maps are only tweaks, its not as though we are mapping race engines. I would think that lamda wil pick up any differences in exhaust. Re: the 174bhp. Was told thats what they all make give or take, maybe the dyno has conservative figures, hence my...

The power run says 174bhp before 189.5bhp after On another note am i the only one that thinks these cars are slow. Ever since i got it, it never felt like a 200bhp small car. I know dyno's vary and all that but does this engine ever make what Renault claim!

K-tec

Not going to mention any names as it ran pretty well with the exhaust and this thread is not about stirring it up. Took the exhaust off because it was awlful (maybe im getting old and should go back to M3's ) I don't mind loud but can't handle drone and general annoyance. Anyway, i was under...

Had my car mapped a while back with exhaust (189bhp) but hated the exhaust so stuck it back to standard after a week. Now i know that its gonna run better with the system but it seems even slower now than when it was totally standard. The car also seems to drive better and pull harder with the...

How loud is the system? I'm at the end of my tether with my K-tec and putting the standard system back on tomorrow. I don't care if i lose 4bhp and gain 7kg's, i need the peace :) I think the Clio is the only car i have owned that the exhaust is louder inside the car than out, I would of thought...

Oh ok, i see your not a million miles away from me. I may have to get booked up, Do you need a fully run in/ loosened engine (mine has a 1000miles)

Ok :) Are you Power Engineering as in the one in Uxbridge. If it is, i ran 350bhp on a 3 cylinder Impreza on your rollers :D

So are you saying that the exhaust has added to the part throttle problem. Did you drive your car without the mods or did you have them straight away? I was going to leave this car standard as i've modded too many cars in the past. Thats why i was thinking just a remap to get rid of all the...

I don't know if its just me but the throttle does'nt feel connected to the engine. It feels a bit artificial like the ECU is controlling it. Is it fly by wire?? What i have notice is: * Slow to rev (i.e first initial touch) * Hangs on to revs for a split second (don't know if it's there to...

Nice..... Storm Grey is the best colour, as long as too many people don't like it ;)

Yeah im not too sure either. would it look just as odd with it in grey as its still on the roof line. I got them to do it anyway as i can always peel it off if i change my mind. The jury is still out with the spoiler, sometimes i think it just looks better without one but i suppose i could be...

+1 with Richard. Very helpful and he know's about what he is selling! Nice car, wont comment about the wheels ;) oops, i just did :D

last few for a while, Black roof done
