    Another DCi 172 replica.....

    I wouldn't as will need an intercooler for that. You can get the 65 mapped to around 70-80bhp ok. The 80 has a large intercooler but isn't as efficient as the 100. Both the 80 and 100 have larger flowing injectors so would be limited by both these factors.

    Well got some injectors last night so are on there way to me. Today I decided to do a DIY egr complete removal and it's worked beautifully..... Valve for egr is now in battery area connected up so ecu doesn't through a hissy fit. The egr mixer chamber is gone and replaced with a straight pipe...

    Another DCi 172 replica.....

    Well just got back from the first decent drive in the rep. Went to the Lakes for 3 days and only issue was lack of power but that's as I haven't had such an underpowered car since passing my test lmao. Only other little issue is horn doesn't work intermittently haha. Gutted as my average MPG...

    Another DCi 172 replica.....

    Since buying the car there was a slight whistle on throttle but it got worse until yesterday it was more steam train like. Quickly diagnosed the turbo to inlet pipe as the cause It has had a an amazing bodge completed with Samco self emalgamating tape and a jubilee clip. Not buying a new...

    Clio Dci 100 intercooler pipework help.....

    Got a DCi 65 and have a 100 intercooler but not the pipes. Anyone got the part numbers or pictures so can keep an eye out for the right bits? Going for 100 intercooler, 80 injectors, panel filter then a remap. Much appreciated Rob

    Another DCi 172 replica.....

    Cheers! They are standard Twingo RS 133 16" alloys as had them sat in the garage off my Fiances car. Definitely different to the Turini's, 182 and 172 rims haha

    Another couple of days and another boat load of work complete. Clio has had a service - new oil, oil filter, air filter & fuel filter. Also fitted Bosch Aero wiper blades. Then cleaned the engine bay as was showing its 145k mileage. Then fitted some 172/182 Eibach Sportline springs I picked...

    Another DCi 172 replica.....

    Cheers The wiring is identical across them all so literally plug and play, ballasts should come with the headlights and are on the underside. You will probably have to swap your adjusters across but that takes seconds so isn't an issue. I have fitted xenons to the black rep and also my 182...

    I wasn't 100% initially but get good reviews and haven't heard any horror stories. Not like it will ever get abuse like my 182 Cup so hoping it's all good. Cheers! Exactly my reason for using them

    Robs Inferno 182 Cup.....

    Powerflex dogbone fitted and adjusted the gear linkage so sits better for 3rd/4th. Makes a nice difference. Need to find more time to do the axle bushes and then bite the bullet and get a Pure Motorsport shifter setup

    Robs Inferno 182 Cup.....

    Will do a proper for sale advert but looks like a breaker would be better financially. It's been here nearly 3 years and had endless fun but it's tine to move on now.

    Robs Inferno 182 Cup.....

    The Impreza is actually going to be sold or broken for parts in the next few weeks as having a Clio again has rendered it an ornament haha. I love it and it is an absolute beast but going to get the Clio all sorted and eventually will be going turbo so just doing cheap mods engine wise so won't...
