ill hit the cat tomo morning and see if it does good idea!yeah all the pipes are clear of any mounts im sure of that had a look earlier.the cats pretty rusted over looks like its passed its time but i dont fink its been changed since the car came out the show room because ive got a well gd...
any one else with other ideas had a look at the heat shield seems fine there is slight gas leaking from the down pipe to catalytic converter though at the join hardly nothing though
well at least i got the revs thing sorted!
yeah it could be the heat shield ill have to have a look but what does a broken cat sound like?sounds like the airs not flowing properly really weird
aaah rite i got the revs wrong 30-35 still no one got any ideas?its not the backbox cos thats all sitting properly now!so i dont no!
probly still got revs wrong havent i?
ive got a mk1 clio 1.4s and when i hit 30,000-35,000 revs theres a really weird crackerly noise coming from probly near the catalytic converter!what ever gear im in it will do it in this rev range.

thanks for ur comments it just looked a bit akward to fit an induction kit ill try n get a price from work today on a pipercross!anyone got ne pictures of one?
can i have some advice to which is better, eg ive heard that an induction kit needs alot of cold air to keep it running well is this true?and are they hard to fit?also does an air filter element like piperx provide a small amount of noise?
which is better for a mk1 1.4 s?
yeah i want it to look just right but i want a suspension kit 40 upfront and bout 50mm rear so probly 2 clicks!i mite try the company called pi see what they offer.i no its a silly question but what width are ya wheels?
monaco blue is the best colour for the clean clio thats what ive got and i fink its wikid when its polished properly i think i got one of the only mk1 which came out the factory monaco and its only 1.4!cant afford 16v!
i did think about coil overs but i dont fink i wanna spend that much.i dont fink apex make a kit for it because on bb tunings website it says only for 52mm gap which is a bit annoying.my superleggars dont look like they are attached to the car at the moment!cos of the height at the rear!
cheers mate the torsion bar looks easy and its one of the latest mk1s so should be easier to unscrew i think id rather pay someone to do it cos ill be worried other wise.i reckon ill get a suspension kit i no its more money but the rides loads better i fink!theres not many kits which have a...
