I was thinking of going to Powerstation. Not too far from Dan at SJM. Not sure what the rollers are like for accuracy there though?

Knowing my luck it'd be less than 182 :D

I'll give it a try I think. Already have 197 cams, full decat exhaust and ktr style induction kit. Map will be fiddled with once the inlets have been done. Every little helps I guess.

I'd rattle-can it. Can get a decent finish it the prep is done right - will look better than it does now anyway.

Aha, o.k. Been reading some previous posts on here and many have suggested gains of around 5-8 hp?

Location?

Just found these on Ebay - are they any good? And would they fit a 182? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-Clio-sport-172-port-matched-gasflowed-inlet-manifold-/331317612784?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4d241190f0

I'm not far from you and i'd go for Dan@SJM - I didn't find anyone locally that convinced me they could do the work without f**king it up. Bit of a drive, but worth it for peace of mind. Dan's a good lad and you can relax knowing that your car will be in safe hands.

Lovely mate. One day i'll have to bit the bullet and do something similar myself. Quick question - are you running coilovers? Ride height looks spot-on on those F1's (15's?)

Cheers mate.

I have the SRN019 Scorpion exhaust system for the 182. I believe the correct decat for this system is the SRNC019. I ordered one from ebay earlier in the week and it's arrived today. Problem is the part number on the plate says "497 RN". Now I think this was the decat pipe to go with the old...

Phone the DVLA. Tell them you are trying to trace the owner of a car that's been abandoned on your land. If you can't trace the owner you'll have to get the car removed and scrapped.

When my aux pulley was on the way out it would squeak when going on and off throttle.

Where did you get the dampers from?

Looks like that's been sleeved bud. I doubt very much the old connection is under there.

Good shout on the splitter. Cupra R one's are quite popular:

I agree. A 182 with both cup packs will drive just as well and you'll have a few more toys to play with.

Will be fine mate. Any decent 5w 40 will do the job. I'd rather buy a decent hydrocracked "fully synth" and change it regularly than buy something ester based and try and stretch out the intervals because it's so expensive.

Lol at this - like a turbo-lag map :)

Thanks Dan - looks a good bit of kit

Would that shorten the life of the gearbox? I know some short-shifters have a bad rep.

You seem to have a lot of problems with your car. Ever thought about selling it and buying something less problematic?

Pretty much, yes. Normal stuff once in a while won't do any harm though.

Did you see the link I posted? They are in Essex. Your location under your avi says your in Essex. And they're cheap.

It used to piss me off no end. Really peaky power delivery. Mapped, mine is much smoother. Have power right through the rev range.

Agree with this I had a quote from Maldon at £45 a wheel - feedback is excellent. http://ctc-powder-coating.co.uk/contact-us/

Professionally maintained, no expense spared ;)

No problem bud. FF or Full Fat is with all the mod cons (xenons, cruise, 1/2 leather seats etc) plus both cup packs The 182 cup is more basic - fabric seats, no xenon's etc. Cip packs are the spoiler pack (splitter and rear spoiler) and suspension pack (different track and anthractite wheels)...

"Difference of opinion" between the two partners I heard. Shame, they looked promising.

Look up the group B spec. Your faith will be restored ;) http://www.tech-racingcars.eu/peugeot-205-t16-2 550bhp 3bar boost, 900kg
