A few people on here have visited Pro-speed in Cardiff...3 of us are in the W.Mids, myself, JayHunt and Kully have all been there, prices have just gone up, but I had a stealth exhaust made from scratch for £318...the local tyre and exhaust place wanted £250 for an off the shelf stainless steel...
You can also use the screwdriver type things that create guide holes for screws...put it in one hole at a time, and move the unit slightly...it does work, as one of the lads from renault did it for me when I had a liquid air freshener leak into the bit of dash around the radio!
Just remember though, the backbox is too heavy for the mount...the mount on the 172 is the same as for a 1.2, but the extra weight of the backbox means that they're prone to failure...some lasting longer than others! If you go custom...at least you can get the sound you want, with a lifetime...

Remember...my exhaust fell off the 3rd day after that...so must have been dodgy when doing the RR...sure it should be better for the next one...
PS. Pay your fookin fiver you tight git! :rasp: ;)
Al, its a good job that ChrisK and TomehB didn't turn up (another 2 cups!!) we're probably the Cupital of England for such a small place!! (see what I did there!) ;)
Forgot all about these pics mate! :dead: Got a few somewhere...will have to dig them out!!!
(Sure you can always grab some pics of the randoms who were taking them from the pub!!! ;))
Its not a booming boy racer jobbie...its noisier than standard, but there is no 4K rattle...and it sounds nice during a pootle round as well as when giving it some beans
Scott...no worries mate. :) You can also listen to JayHunt's which is a cut through, and Kully's but this has a different...
Mine was done at end of November, old box fell off...Got the stealth one off Charlie, but went down on the day! (It was literally can you? Please...Pretty Please!) :) I could have got a stainless exhaust here in Telford for £250ish...but went down to Cardiff...as heard nothing but good reviews...
Charlie @ Prospeed has pipes, with differing diameters, and runs them through the mandrel following the original line of the cutaways that Renault have made for the exhaust system. Obviously the variables are down to you...ie backbox size; tailpipe size; stealth or cut through. He builds the...
I was down there with the lads from the W.Mids for a factory sale, they should be able to do you a deal...especially if you mention that you're a part of CS.
Mandy has said 'What a ride!' ;) Couldn't stop smiling from ear to ear...just couldn't get out of the bugger!!!!!
Look forward to seeing you again at Star City mate! :)
PS. We are all collecting for a Vee aren't we JayHunt, Kully??? ;)
You can't say anything...where would you put anything in that motor??? Mandy was spending my V6 fund!!! ;) But she's still putting the money aside for her 'little surprise'.
Saw the motor parked up last night when I was stopping at the cashpoint! Didn't get a chance to come on here last night and put it in...but better late than never! :o
Looking V.clean by the way! :)
The cup is the hardest RS Clio to insure. Neil @ Greenlight has said on here many moons ago that the Cup is the Clio which is involved in the most single vehicle accidents...sad but true! :(
I know him...seen him around Oakengates, he works in Halfords...but think he knows about his cars, so hasn't put the silly bits on the car!!! Have told him about CS, but don't know if he's been on here
