Well if the torque figure is wrong how can anyone belive that the BHP figure will be right ??

pmsl...2 minutes after i posted i realised that but it was too late to change !! In any case, i have a excuse for forgetting. I took my front fogs out !!! hahaha

hahaha totally agree m8 If their behind you just stick your rear foggys on.

Got to be the nicest modded 182 ive seen.

Ive had a few problems with idling on my mk1 172 over the years. First i'd try cleaning the throttle body out. More likely to be a leaky gasket somewhere if its reving that high tho as the tb would have to be seriously gunged up......worth a look all the same

Exactly the same problem happend to me 2 weeks ago and that also ended up on a AA truck down to GDI !!! lol........took a day to arrive from one end of the country to the other !! lol ......big thanx to the AA. Membership was worth its weight in gold that day i tell ya haha Turned out to be...

Will the 182 cat be the same bore size as a Magnex which im currently running ??

just edited this cos ive noticed you have a mk2 172 which if running standard rims and tyres would be a 195 / 45 16. I'd leave them as they are

Do you mean 215 / 45 15's ??

And join 30 million other bread delivery van drivers.............yawn lol Short shift will make it even worse because then your gonna have to reach lower down for it. I cant straighten my left arm no where near straight due to a childhood accident but ive never once found the Clio to be...

Ideally yes, but only for the 30 odd minutes of MOT time. The rest of the time would have the Decat. Could a 182 cat not be cut down ?? or is there no real spare piping length for it to be cut short ??

Does the mk2 172 have a bend in it so to speak like the mk1 ?? Thinking about getting a 182 manifold and getting my Janspeed decat modded so it all links up and then obviously i'd have to get the cat shortend to fit for MOT time. Advantage of all this would also mean that it would be...

Anyone done this conversion on a mk1 172 ?? If so how did you get round the cat for the MOT with the top bend part of it not matching up to the 182 manifold ?? cheers

Yes that the one. I thought the Megane 225 conversion wasnt a easy job due to having to mod the bulkhead cos of the gearbox among other things ??? Has this conversion been done before ?? Wasnt there meant to be someone on here who was developing a Laguna turbo engine transplant convo ??

Back in the real world where things cost money.............lol The CTR engine is better built but you'd be looking at at least 5k plus to drop it in and tbh it wont be that much quicker. Far easier and more cost affective to drop a 172 engine in a tune that to 200bhp. Think there's a...

tut tut how could you think of such a thing !! :-| There would be no benafit what so ever for doing a CTR transplant. You might as well just go and drop in a 172 engine which is a straight fit and mod that up for all the extra it would cost ya to do the Honda idea !! There just as quick...

Agree Ive got a Magnex at the min and all though its a good quality quiet sounding system it looks pants and is too heavy for the car

Are they putting a whole new engine in for the Sport model ?? Excuse my ignorance but havent been following the new Clio's progress.

If your cold air feed pipe is located in a good place it shouldnt make much of a difference if its connected or not because its still feeding the IK with at least 98% of the same cold air. If your cold air feed pipe is blasting out loads a cold air and is as near as poss to the front of the...
