    heat shield for induction kit

    If your engines getting that hot that a piece of metal shielding is heating up to a temperature where heat rays come off and thus causing heat soak theres something seriously a miss with your engine :eek: In any case, you wont get that much heat soak when the cars in forward motion

    Best performance exhaust

    Quite suprised at that because i havent really heard anyone complain about the noise level from a GDi system other than a positive one. I know Yozza race one is meant to be very loud. End of the day its all down to what a person can tolerate.

    Best performance exhaust

    Eh :S Thought GDi's one was meant to be pretty quiet and certainly quieter the higher the revs Its Yozza's race one thats the 'loud one'

    Can someone explain the principles of throttlebodies?

    At a guess you'd be looking at 4k for TB's. LSD's are about another grand excluding fitting i think. Take into consideration also that you could probably buy a 2nd car with that 4k budget that would quite easily keep up with a Clio on TB's

    Best performance exhaust

    You want a 2.5'' bore straight through system from the likes of Yozza, GDi, K-tec , or custom etc etc In the 2.5'' category no difference in performance between makes other than the quality of welds, fit and sound.

    mk2 ph1 with mk2 ph2 lights

    Same here. ph2 lamps look gash imo. Love the fact the ph1 lamps are just one colour all over, red. Speaking of 'upgrading' also hate the ph2 bumper craze on ph1's :o :quiet:

    Can someone explain the principles of throttlebodies?

    You dont need a limited slip diff mate. First step you have to ask yourself is, do you want to spend thousands modding your Clio. If the answer is yes, research into how much things cost and your budget and take it from there.

    Knocking Noise 172

    Why are you blaiming Renault?? :S If they give you a wrong part they replace the part back for free :S :S (mine always has) Standard shop practice. Even my local breakers does it lol My alternator went, i handed them the car to Renault, they fitted a brand new one (about 250 ish from...

    newbie with 182 but not impressed??

    Should be quicker than a 1.8 20v turbo (stock powerd one) 2 points to note. Your engine is quite young with 27k on the clock. They usually need about mid 30's / 40k's to really open up. Also Clio Sports dont feel as quick as what they are. Could be to do with the high driving position...

    Induction Kits

    Ah the good old marmite topic again lol My std ph1 172 airbox was rubbish, Viper and Maxogen respectively were far better from my own experience.

    DIY Inlet manifold matching

    Yeah but cost vs gain its actually damn good. They used to quote 10+ bhp from a mapped inlet im sure.

    DIY Inlet manifold matching

    Can you not buy a spare inlet and send it off?? And Dan R, do a search on the subject. By quoting 5 bhp your giving the impression theres no gains to be had. You couldnt be further from the truth

    Induction kit or original airbox..?

    More air in = potential to run lean. Lean = drop in performance IK = better flow over stock induction (more air in) Folk fit IK moan that theres a drop in performance / no difference - do the maths ;)

    Itg Max Fitted

    You make half your cash back when you come to sell it so not that bad if you think about it. Quality dosent come cheap. Things are dear for a reason, their generally better

    Exhaust Mount

    Because if your using metal piping it will cut and wear through the rubber of the clamp in no time Plumbers copper piping just about does it all be it a very tight fit. The thinner stuff not regular size

    Bike carb's/TB's on a 172???

    You cant compare the Clio's image to a Scooby. Clio never had one lol plus for a start there was a 10k premium over a Clio Sport depending on what model of Scooby (when new) plus group 20 insurance. Another example is E36 M3's. Only a pipe dream for most young men in their day but now you see...
