I kinda like the boost it gives now around 4k, so I've got nothing against more boost at 5k :D I know fuel economy is down the drain with this, and there are lots of compromises to make. But if the car will run "normally" I mean every day use, that's fine with me.
What about that 182 mani I...
Surely I dont want to argue with You :)
Power gain is crucial in this project and I have no problem with inconviences of running so wild cams (unless the car is totally undriveable)
So what do You think ?? is it doable ?
In other means, I'll be forced to make the car iddle at a slightly higher revs ?
So there are good news for me today ;) :)
BenR what about my original question, will I be able to run the car on wheels for a remap ? or do I have to post it there by DHL ;)
Hmm

I've heard about limitations of a standart Siemens Sirius unit ( for some serious mods) but on the other hand some says it is quite powerfull unit.
You really think there is no way to do a good remap for those cams ?
Schrick is not an option for me now :/ I'v already bought CatCams.
If they will run fine after a custom re map of a standard ECU I dont think I want to ;) They are the wildest CatCams gives (without further modifications of the engine) so I think power gain will also be bigger
nope, they will jet to be fitted. Thats why I'm asking, all they need to do with standard ECU is get me from point A to point B for a custom re map without engine damage 100miles total. If thats not possible I'll have to get the car on a truck and get it there that way.
Thats a good news :)
Just one more question before hard work begins. Is there anything I should do in adition to those mods mentioned above ??
Not much Clio Sport around Poland so everyone who decides to modify those babies pretty much goes separate ways. I take my "inspiration" from this...
Hi
I'll fit my CatCams 5502421 soon. My firend will do all the mechanical part including fitting cams, 182 mani, RS inlet mani, for free :) thats the good news.
I also arranged for the re map to be done but the workshop able to do that is over 100miles from where I live
Is it possible to drive...

Thats a sweet custom-fitted appliance of a Rotrex charger
Stunning 165bhp from a 98bhp car.
Same charger will fit 172 but the price tag on this baby is twice the price of a new Garret turbo (at least in Poland) Good thing is You need...
I dont think thats it ! there is no tension on a throttle cable when the pedal is relised.
Update... now ( after cleaning throttle) the rpm rounds abour 1500 not 2000 like it did before :/ but the problem still remains :/
Hi
So, after few weeks of intensive work my new baby is up and running.
Since this little baby (as far as I know) is the only one in my home town the pleasure is even bigger :evil:
It's almost ready on the outside, but there are plans for more ;)
Much to do with the interior...
I have a complete Weitec suspension at a very reasonable price to buy.
1/6 of a oryginal price actually :)
Kit comes frome a Clio II ph1 1.2 model.
Will it fit to my ph1 172, or is a standart suspension on a 172 better ?
Maby I can use only lowering springs that comes with the kit ?
Any...
WARNING ! It may be a stiupid question ;)
What about taking a spear ph1 exhaust mainfold ( I can buy it cheap) cut it in "half" and modify to make a 4-2-1 from it ? I understand some calculations have to be made. Is there any chance to make beter than the factory ment it ?
Hi :)
So finally I'v become a Clio Sport owner :D Since the car is still in the workshop (I bought it damaged in Sweden) I was wondering, maby its a good time do do a little work on it, to get it better on start :) .
So few questions, how do You see it fit and will it work ? :)
Does the...
I was afraid of that :/ What a shame almost all cars imported to Poland are after some kind of accident :/ its realy hard to find some decent car.
Since U put it that way, there is nothing else for me to do, but to whait another year, then sell mine and buy 172 ( unless something nice comes...
Hello
Since this is my first post here, I'd like to say hello to everyone :)
So this is my story...
1 year ago I bought my third Clio, this time it was ph1 1.6 16V '00,
a car with no accident in his history, great paint job. By now the car looks realy nice, new alloy rims, new tyres, tinted...
