Don't torture yourself to this mate lol - Any exhaust will fit as long as its got the link pipe available from the usual Renault tuner places

What bhp ? - any times ?

Its worth fitting one for the cat hassle alone.

Yeah there's a sort of join at either side of the lower doors.

Forgot to add, these came with a 12 year rust and anti-perforation warranty from Renault. Might be worth going into your local dealer with this

I thought garages by law had to sell roadworthy cars? Can you not reject it ? - Sure these days you have rights with this kinda thing. Might be worth a shout to trading standards. It won't be a cut and shut. Cars these days are worth more in parts especially Renault

If you buy a £800 quid car you have to expect to get your hands dirty tbf. Non of those are big or expensive jobs listed.

Quite expensive even for Renault. Pre tax hike some 16 months back i got the dephaser / aux and cam belts as well as replacing cams for roughly £750

Sure they only do one profile for them. Its on their website the duration and lift stats. No problems for 60 thousand miles of use then car was a bit diesel like so presumed it was the cams (it wasn't, it was dephaser) and switched to 428's.

Mine certainly didnt. Their a damn site better than the over rated Cat Cams garbage

How i understood it: Early ph1 172's had the single silenced type box with one lambda Next was a twin barrel cat with single lambda The last in the line ph1's, twin cat and twin lambda

:o

100% don't do that mate so he's talking out of his rear passage. As already mentioned, most likely the gear linkage rod has been knocked over a bit.

Ekkk im in Scotland with the same year ph1 and the same wheels!! Keep at your end of the country mate haha

Does it flake off ?

totally empty bar when going anywhere

In what way mate ?

Thought the early ph1's were single box, later spec ones twin type :S As for the decat, Janspeed silenced is good.

Going back to the original question, is there away you can tell by looking at the belt ? ie date stamp, pacific Renault markings etc ?

Just get the silencer refilled - Gonna be easier and cheaper

A centre section is straight through with or without the silencer ;) Cut the silencer open and re-pack it

Apparently Mk4 Escorts are bad for this too. There is a company that offers a lead which attaches to the bonnet and the other end to engine iirc which if it was to fly up, would not hit the screen.

Probably on the lines of the engine is flowing more gasses out from the engine thus changing the pressures in the head or / and the way in which the fuel and air from the inlet is mixed and disposed of quicker. Iv no idea haha

Would have gone a run up but had a wedding the day before

Why would it make any power? There's nothing in the bore of the pipe lol How can it be ''fecked'' anyway :S

No need to, they already have a exit / entry there

The law sets the punishments not the insurance. You take out a few folk and have found to be running a decat your not going to get a extra 5 years lol

Wouldn't say it was shocking. Anything without forced induction is always going to cost more vs fewer gains but turbo's arn't the be all and end all. They have their own hurdles, lag, mpg etc etc

Wouldn't say it was shocking. Anything without forced induction is always going to cost more vs fewer gains but turbo's arn't the be all and end all. They have their own hurdles, lag, mpg etc etc 20 bhp up on a stock 172 / 182 and it'll be a very fun car

Whats wrong with opening a window if your warm? Folk are as soft as shite these days
