Pretty sure its not the ICV. This all started after changing the HT's. Day before the miss-fire on the 1st set of HT's the IVC was fine so doubt the day after on a changed set of HT's with zero miles covered it would suddenly play up. Im wondering if the contacts on the leads are a bit...

When i dip the clutch in any gear and at any speed the revs drop like a tonne of bricks to nearly stalling point rather than progressively falling. Does this sound like a HT lead problem? To cut a long story short had 428's fitted, not mapped as yet, car was running fine but after 30...

Its booked in mid October. Idle was really good till the HT's knackerd up after 30 miles. I replaced them with some 2nd hand ones and its not as smooth now but ok. Think there could be a prob with these leads too tho so im not really a good example to compare against lol

Your worrying too much. Just use a couple of washers from your old kit. Spring kits a pain in the rear. I ended up bolting the thing up with the biggest bolts the holes would accept and have done with it. Never had a problem since

Really suprised you needed the owner to tell you it had cams. Im running 428's fitted a few weeks ago, cars similer to yours as in its not mapped to these cams but is mapped to the previous set of cams and the car is slower than a standard one! its completly gutless. I'd lay money on a 1.2...

PMSL :lolup: Just dont google that before food ;)

Never knew this till recently but apparently its illegal to run a exhaust louder than the factory exhaust noise level. Bit of a grey area tho as not sure how or where the feds would get the data to compare.. BTW, dont worry about this straight through exhaust bizz. Just about all after...

Thought the ph1 's where 1089kg's ? Surely cant be 1035 anyway because the seats weigh 30kg's and theres plenty of stripped out ph1's and not many reported to be running under a tonne? Not convinced about those figures :S

Youve changed your tune from 4 months back ;):rasp:

Iv had chocolate im fine now huh ;)

Sorry to crash the thread but going back further up to post number 5. Can HT leads cause fluctuations in revs or idle? Mine miss-fired due to the leads failing, was running ok idle / rev wise, changed the HT's to some second hand ones i had sitting about now the car plumits revs when i...

Dosent go well at the min because iv changed the cams and it needs mapped lol Yeah i use that mate. Folk seem to recommend it on here. Sure Oilman rates it too iirc?

Why do you want to know mate? If its had it its had it, bin time :)

102k worth of tat

12 quid area from Halfords.

Sure its about 12 quid area per litre. You'll need 4 to be safe. Sure capacity is 3.1 litre iirc. Headwork, 182 mani, pipercams, inlets, lightened fly and a good mapper lol

Whack a set of Eibachs on. Their pretty much stock ride hight

No idea why folk are adding their names, pointless. There was 1300 odd official ones but about 5000 plus through car supermarkets. Hardly rare really

Castrol EPX 75/80 GL5 diff oil is as good as any Halfords sell it

421's might be ok on a full ITB'd up Clio but from what iv read they kick in at 5000rpm?? Ok for making good peak power but far less driveable and probably less ''quicker'' feeling in everyday conditions on a stock single TB set up.

Sure i read Fred knows a really good gearbox builder. Quick turn around and cheap too iirc

In my case because the nearest specialist was roughly a 300 mile round trip away and the difference was only 50 quid iirc. Add the petrol into the equasion and time off work, it would have cost me more going to a specialist so simply wasnt worth it. Some Renault garages can be pretty...

Amazing how Renault dealers vary in price. I got mine done for £750 from my local R/dealer INCLUDING water pump, and dephaser pulley.

Is that not a lot of wear where the cam sits in the journal for a car on 44k? Reason i mention, had my re-grinds removed due to wear and where the cams sit in the journals looked the same as that where by on another set of stock cams i have on 60k they look un-grooved and mint. Possible...

Good result although the wheels figure looks a tad optimistic

These will look cool I lied

What im saying is, folk see X amount of K's spent for X amount of BHP and think its simply not worth it on a Clio ie paper gains as they do indeed look rubbish but in reality the drive is a hell of a lot different as the examples i quoted further up. From experience of modding the Clio its...

Its already straight through even with the silencer. Its only a cat thats not

Calm yourself down fella. No need for the attitude. Sure the charger can be had in the region of 4k

What happend to the vids? :dapprove:
