Not many of them about so I nearly popped out of my seat when I saw it come past, I was stuck at a red light so couldn't have a proper nose!
If you're on here... Very nice.
Yeah it should be reet, I did the same when I turbod my Altezza, disconnect the waste gate so that it is purely venting to atmosphere and it will be running like an NA
I contemplated running a die down it but it's fubared. I'm going to go for the drill and tap approach this weekend, cheers bud

Hello ladies and gents. Being the ham-fisted idiot that I am, I've pulled the Handbrake up a bit hard and ripped the threads off the 'shaft' which hold the actual lever down.
The shafts already skinny, if I remember correctly it only takes a 10mm bolt so rethreading it may not be a feasible...
This may be a slightly out there suggestion, but as appose to just becoming another oem stockist of which there seems to be a tonne at the minute, what about stretching further afield? Such as Orbisound exhausts etc?
Target the niches as appose to just having a little slice off the already...
Out of interest, does anyone else's car do weird things from time to time?
Every now and again, when I go to wash the windscreen in my 182, I pull the stalk the front jets squirt and the rear wiper goes. Leaving me with a soaked front screen and a squeaking blade on the rear window.
I'd say...
Welcome along! It's a different animal to a starlet. I've had a couple. Starlets quicker in a straight line and easier to work on but out of the box the clios handling is a LOT better and it's a much more comfortable daily driver.
Walking past, checked out his clio and got the 'wtf you looking at dick head' from a guy who was chatting to him through the window.
Ignored it, carried on walking and he followed me into the kebab shop and squared off to me with the whole 'you ain't from round here are ya blud'
So I went to...
I was talking to a friend today who happens to own a mustang. Apparently the other night one of you scamps presumably in a 172/182 apparently made them look like they were standing still?
Made me laugh anyway!
Simple question, I'm the middle man here and it would of saved me measuring it up myself.
They are going to be designing the inlet from scratch. Measurements were only in regards to clearance from the face of the head around the engine bay so they have an idea of the dimensions they will be...
Malta, thats where they're based but supply to the UK. Genuinely top notch service, I just thought that this may outline that it's not some rookie in a shed! Haha
They do flow test, atm there standard products revolve around Starlets, however they have made numerous other custom setups, hence the interest in having a go at products for the Clio and as there's a presumed demand, keeping the product line going as appose to a simple one off design.
Any...
This is what I was aiming for with my initial inquiries tbh, although as Zisco do with the starlets, I can't see why they won't have more than one design/pricing strategy depending on how well they sell/demand.
I don't mean to be cheeky but I don't suppose you have any of your original measurements do you?
I won't be designing or building the inlet, but any extra input for the guys at Zisco would be a bonus. They're the chaps with the software and expertise to pull this off I'm just the middle man...

The quoted race manifold also includes a billet throttle body etc. which will be surplus on Clios inlet. This is still very much in the draft/design stages, bearing in mind that second hand RS2 manifolds are being punted for £1100. Myself and Zisco only started...
Craig,
Thank you are the additional pictures.
Just like you recommended, we shall work on the gasket ports in order to maximise flow on the intake manifold.
Is it possible to take some pictures (with a measuring instrument across to give me an idea of space) between the engine cylinder head and...
Sirs, Maams, Ladies and Gentleman.
I've started talks with quite a well known manufacturer (in the JDM scene anyway) of both inlet and exhaust manifolds in regards to an uprated inlet manifold for the 172/182.
The design will be of a similar vein to the RS2 manifold however, the price will be...
Anything turbo related a free flowing exhaust and remap will be good options as I doubt the standard exhaust is up to much more than standard. Where's the IC mounted?
Remap and a FULL exhaust Inc downpipe will more than likely show good gains.
Small boosted engines can be weapons.
