It compares to an evo 8 fq300, but not off the line

Where can you buy the seats and subframes that will fit into the clio? also anyone else know any other car seats that can go into the clio easily enough? i was interested in putting clio Williams seats into the 172 because they are super comfy but I think it's epic amounts of work

I'm also interested in this

To be honest, as said before the engines differ so much your best bet is just to dyno your own car to refer back to, or if you've already added modifications to your car just take an average dyno with a pinch of salt.

He's asking for a typical dyno for a standard clio torque curve, not the peak figure. Just google images standard clio 172/182 dyno graph

Yes.

Sound fine, it's what every single clio owner does anyhow so I don't suppose you can go wrong.

Rofl.

Are you actually purposely trying to gun me down by anything I say now or I just need to explain things super clearly because you can't understand? I'm doing a forced induction engine conversion as opposed to spending £3000 - £4000 on trying to improve an n/a engine, I.e a 2 grand inlet for...

It does, people spend thousands and thousands of pounds on they're clio's or any n/a car for that matter to get such small gains and not really any substantial gains, if you don't like clio's out the box don't buy them really. All IMO of course.

I just remembered i changed the intercooler on that for an st-3 one, it had an st-1 or -2 i cant rememer, anyways the -3 has a bigger core, i drove it up and down the road a few times after i fitted it with no bumper on, felt alot better actually. All this turbo chat is making me so excited to...

i never said it was totally reliable!! Jeez chip please read, I said it was unreliable and you asked why and I said we'll actually nothing actually went wrong with it but I still didn't class it as reliable because It was just deteriorating , it felt nowhere near as solid as it was when I first...

I'm not changing my tune chip.. despite nothing major went wrong with the car in my ownership I still don't class it as reliable, especially comparing it to a standard 172 but you already know that. I wouldn't "rely" on it to drive me circa 200 miles without something failing. And as you already...

Well tell a lie actually, there was actually no problems with it at all, it just felt like it had deteriorated a lot in the 4 months I owned it, gearbox mainly, everything was running fine, just felt very fragile. I did try and explain to you about the gearbox chip but you literally took the...

The three RS Clios I've Owned have been relatively reliable too, except chips turbo one. That's not to say they are without problems though.

Lets see, cambelt snapping, gearbox failure, exhaust made of cheese, warning lights going on and off whenever they feel like it. And before you say they are not extremely common problems, neither is pistons melting on a corsa VXR unless you are silly enough to run the sort of power we have been...

Please show me a car that doesn't.

Fair enough mate, apart from the fact you chose the most dire graph as a comparison off google images, we'll just have to come to an agreement even using that graph as a comparison you still got +100lbft more torque for most of the rev range comparing to a 182. I was going to post a better graph...

i didn't say you said anything about the RS2 in this thread , I simply said you are referring, we had a chat about how peak figures don't mean everything just yesterday if you forgot? You don't need to educate me about cars that make peak figures then drop them in a heartbeat, we all know cars...

This isn't a generic method I use, it's just a method I used in this particular comparison. For example something like the rs2 & cams to which I know your referring , there's so little in it , it's debatable which one offers the best benefits. However a 242bhp VXR against a clio 182 standard...

Well you learn something new everyday.

Da fk is a superchip? A piggyback module for the Ecu or what? Or you mean supercharged?

2 bar of boost chip? s**t. Double what I had, what bhp was it running with 2 bar of boost through that turbo?

Youre right no need to mention turbo'd cars. Just sometimes you feel you need to remind people that there are 100x better cars to tune when they are spending thousands of pounds trying to hunt figures and gains of 30bhp. anyway, can you actually explain Laine's graph, comparing the two you...

I think noone disagree's that a standard corsa VXR and clio 182 aren't equals. The only contraversy of this thread was that the guy was saying he owned a 242 bhp stage 3 VXR and his clio 182 was faster, which I called bullshit on. Clouded judgement when you've just bought a shiney new car seems...

One generic map at the cost of £300 on an Audi S4 see's 100bhp

How? Noone has disagree'd that there not equals, I've only mentioned how a 242bhp VXR is faster, they aren't 242bhp standard..

Now this threads turning into RS2 is better because of ease of fitting lol... Cams are better due to ease on my wallet. :/

RS2 3000rpm - 7500rpm you get a steady 140lbft Cams 3000rpm you got 155lbft 4000rpm drops to 145lbft 5000rpm 152 lbft 5,500rpm peaks at 164lbft 6,750lbft you got 150lbft then at 7000rpm you got 140lbft and dropping, I'm not feeding the troll but cams make better gains than the RS2.. Except from...

Don't understand why admins getting upset, it's car banter, clearly yeecup disagree's with this product. If the entire world only had one viewpoint and wasn't allowed to express opinion, what a boring world this would be.
