But you have a clio, so go for HP (Hill Power) Induction kit. Its the only way to go.
A decat would give you more airflow and thus improve your sound.

Feathering.
What are you guys on about feathering your brakes?
I understand the term from flying. You feather your propelers to turn through x degrees to remove the grip for that propeler. So its spinning but it is not gripping the air and thus not driving you forward.
But how the...
That is exactly what happend to me. I was still skidding after I had hit the deer. Went about another 10 metres or something. Ok the car was full (quite litteraly) the road was wet. But it was also straight (thank god). The b*****d deer didnt even die!

Where do you live Ben H? Me and a few mates have been messing around with our Golden Eye EMP weapon over the last few days. Its possible you could have been cought in the pulse.
And then I woke up.
Sorry to hear about it Ben. Hope you get it fixed, and cheaply. It must be annoying to...

I am sorry, but peoples driving has nothing to do with ABS being good or not. The simple fact is ABS is a life and vehicle saver. Drivers on the other hand are crap. Well some are. Like you say TB1 if they drove properly then they wouldnt need there ABS, but if they were driving properly and...
What would changing from 1st to 3rd do? All it would mean is that your revs would drop quite a bit when you got into the third gear. I cant understand how that can be blaimed. But then I dont own a 172. If its under warrenty I cant see why there is a problem. You were driving your car. You didnt...

I would have thought that if you got your car setup properly (for performance) then its not going to like you putting the cat back on. Even if it is just for an hour or so. Surely its going to do something nasty. But I dont know.
I dont know about the year thing either, but I was told anything...
The flames and pops that come courtasy of rally cars are a bi-product of the over fueling they put on there cars to get the engine hotter quicker...or at least thats what I remember Prodrive saying. But they also said it doing that creates loads of pollution. So I would watch your next MOT if it...
Not as bad as tesco, they charged me £14 for 3 days! I only put alloys on. I wished I hadnt told them. And because of that, even though they were cheaper, they lost my custom. I may need the money I would have saved, but I also have princaples...b******s!

The rule of thumb is "vehicle behinds fault". Unless your doing something stupid, which it doesnt sound like you were. Then its his fault. So you werent in it his field of vision, is that your fault? Are you a seasoned lorry driver with experience on that particular rig? I think not. How where...
