Yeah he's 1 of those guys that somehow ends up with a quicker version of the car, it's been the same way for every car he's ever owned lol! Just another pic :)

I know I know it's my bad! People keep saying, but I have my own business and it takes up ALL of my time lol! I will definitely visit Fred now, get it sorted :)

Not really mate no, I used to have a Clio 172 PH1, this definitely pulls harder than that, noticeably more. My mates has a 54 plate 182 CUP, he has a RR printout for 194Bhp, same exhaust as mine, but also has cams & map. Not had a play with him in my Clio, but I did in the Mrs' car lol she's got...

Yeah I definitely need it doing! Someone mentioned it could be timing, I was just more concerned at the torque as opposed to horsepower, the torque is showing a loss of 20% against standard, but it doesn't drive that way? :boring: Yeah mate, It's got a Scorpion 2.5" Catback system, air filter...

**UPDATE - RR RESULTS** So today was the day I took the car for a Power Run to see what comes up.. I ended up taking the car to a place called "Hi-Tech Motorsport" in Cradley Heath. Now, this doesn't really affect the story but on arrival, there was a Corsa VXR on the rollers that made 184BHP...

There's a sticky in the Engine thread with youtube clips and videos of what your car sounds like when the dephaser is on it's way out, usually it will be quite rattly on idle and then when you rev to about 2k the noise will die down, if you rev on and off it will make a sort of scraping noise...

Cheers mate! I've seen the "Terrible Clio Thread" don't want to end up in there! Lol Yeah it was really nice! The garage had some really nice cars and almost walked away with a Type R EP3 but the mrs has got 1 of those and I can drive it third party only on my policy anyway ;) lol

Really really like this! What splitter is that you've got?

Thanks! That's exactly what I was looking for to be honest, none of this Halfords rubbish, just a nice, tidy & standardish example. I think I'll get the dephaser and belt changed, then probably some subtle modifications but keep it as standard looking and as clean as possible

Cheers mate! I'm really happy with it :) am I right in thinking that's the Laguna splitter? Another member mentioned it to me

So, been on the forum for a while now and used to own a 1.6 Dynamique S VVT, which was very nice to drive, but I've decided to get the full "Sha-bang"! So I introduce Lexi the Clio lol; She has 90k miles, FSH, 12 months MOT, 6 months Tax and in great condition! I picked her up for £2100, but...

It's probably knackered lol, I went to view it on Friday last week and I rang them first they said "sure pop down" on the website it said MOT'd on the 28th (Thursday) I got there and they said "sorry mate I had to send it in because the exhaust was in 2 pieces and came off the car" then how the...

I was in the 182 CUP enjoying my Big Mac lol, car sounds nice!

Ahh didn't read the hazards flashing part lol, not too sure, was it parked up on the left hand side, with the garage on the right?

Same Gandi from Sax-p?
