I am looking at getting a second IK for my mk1 172.
At the mo. I have an enclosed Carbon Quickshift Taipan2 Kit, - which is wicked for performance but is silent except for a slight whistle.
So I am basically looking at getting a second one for the car that just makes the great roar sound...
Saw this item on ebay:

Wandered what it is about, Could it actually work?

Does anyone have the rear bumper/Splitter from this kit, And if so Is it good quality and easy to fit.
I am thinking about getting the rear bumper on mine
Guys am wanting some new brakes (pads and discs) for front and also rear (if they are bigger than standard). I am also interested as to what rear diffusers are available for the car. cheers
Guys I think at the mo. My car is lowered 45mm on 17shttp://www.boltlightning.co.uk/lemanstrip/images/Y1163.jpg
I say I think because it was already lowered when I bought the car. But I want to go lower. Anyone know how low I can safely go with 17s without knackering the shocks/struts and...
Does anyone have a squeek/Rattle coming from there near side passenger seat in the back. I have and it DOES MY HEAD IN!
If I pull the seat forward and slam it back again it stops the problem, but then after about an hour it comes back ggrrrr. I have put so thick tape on the bits that I think...
Right this is the Latest:
1. I can go for Andys SMT6 Piggy Back system, Which I think is probably the Daddy of systems because it will cost £600. Which Im not sure is worth it on my car for the extra 1/2bhp I get onto top of an off the shelf chip, But not entirely out of question.
2...
Right, I have telephoned R-sport and the guy there (jonathon) told me that it is not worth it on the mk1 172 because you lose power WTF.
Hill Power said he is having probs with the supplier and that there may be a price increase WTF
Power Engineering eeek is a Superchip and costs more than...
Guys was supposed to order the group n chip this morning from HIll Power, But Nick (think it was him) said they have had problems with the last batch of ECUs and that there may be a price increase, What the **** is that all about,
Where else can I get the rsport ecu from, phone numbers would...
Guys really cant decide, after talking to helen etc Today, which ecu should I get after finding out my car is running too lean.
1. Hill Power Group N
2. Power Engineering REMAP
Andy at GDI is tooo expensive boohooo
Guys just browsing ebay and found this, thought some of you may be interested

Right then guys, Those who are interested in the Power engineering remap (as discussed previously) let me know whether you still want to do it, so I can get a rough figure of the numbers involved and I will give them a ring and see what discount we can get for being a group of the same car/engine
Some of you will have seen my cold air pipe on Sunday, so I would like to see where others have put theres, Preferavly pics/details about mk1 172s please.
Am considering just attaching it onto the original air feed - ease more than anything else...
I have just spoken to the guy there and he said they can remap my current ECU and it wil give me 12-15bhp costs £250 +vat = £293.75.
Suppose advantage is that I would get the irratic idle problem for 1.
Views please. Group n Hill Power is £252 inc VAT for us.
I have decided that I want one, But need someone else to fit it,
Does anyone know where the closest place would be to me, I live in Central London, R-Tec is usually the Closest but they want £195 for the Quickshift and £100 to fit it, seems a bit over the top to me.
Has anyone had this problem.
seems to do it most if I cruise at about 3k in 3rd and then take my foot of the accelerator is stays at about 2k even when I push the clutch in. If I rev the engine it stops.
Any suggestions?
Basically I am going to get the Hill power ECU soon to compliment my Exhaust system and Induction Kit, But while browsing the bb performance site I saw the B&M quickshift. Just waondered which one you guys would do first. ECU or B&M shifter.
Gouys am thinking of getting a Hill Power chip as they are only £258.50 and fitting it myself, could you please let me know your views on this. I have a quickshift Taipan 2 induction kit and full exhaust system already so I want one that will compliment them.
Could you please tell me where the power cable goes. I have found it in the engine bay, But cant find it anywhere inside the car, really frustrating and dont really want to lay another cable when there is already one there
Should my clio mk1 172 have a shift light. My cup did, But I still havent seen it on this car, Have taken it to the limiterin 2nd and still not seen it. Should it have one? and if you have the cup chipped does it stop the limiter light coming on, because I bought the car 2nd hand and it seems to...
Has anyone experienced any creaking/squeeking from the front suspension when the car is in full lock, if so please help as I am a little worried to say the least (mk1 172)
:@has anyone had an annoying rattle coming from back left of the car:@
It sounds like it is coming from the back seat, but it could be the suspension as it only happens when i have a passenger in the front.
Oh it is well annoying (in a mk1 172 by the way)
