    Inlet Air Temp VS BHP

    Not sure if im posting this is in the right section... Does anyone know the relationship between the inlet air temp and your cars BHP? On a Clio 182 for instance, what would a reduction of 1Deg C in the inlet air temp equate to in HP gain? Thanks

    Banging / Knocking on lock

    I get exactly the same thing. Sounds really bad in the cold mornings then fades away once the car heats up. Bit odd that the temp can affect it so much

    182 Springs

    Cheers for the offers and help guys, So, getting back to the question, is there any way of telling standard 182 springs from cupped ones?

    182 Springs

    Not sure how much the springs are on their own but fully fitted came to £150 which was a big improvement on the £260 renault wanted! This was only for the front 2 springs though as the rears were ok :( If i was feeling rich and wanted to go aftermarket Im guessing £140ish would get me some...

    Hey guys, Garage is ordering some new front coil springs for my 182 with cup pack and Im worried they may order the wrong ones so: 1) Does the standard 182 and the 182 with suspension cup pack actually use different springs? 2) If so how can I tell the difference? Im hoping they will be...
