I had the rsport ECY on my 03 plate cup and when removed it the early rev limiter o f the standard chip seemed to come in earlyier! But it doesnt increase horsepower at all! Just rases the limiter to 7800rpm so in gear time with rsport ecu were as follows 69mph 2nd, 98 in 3rd, 126mph 4th and...
count me in my old one did and they know of a corrective cure at renault Solihull and WOlverhampton which involves adjusting the top mounts on your suspensio and my new is already banging with just 900 miles on it!
you should also maybe look at a corrado VR6 194bhp 2.9 again one of the best handeling front drive cars rare with luxuryand reliable!!! IT is a VW consumption is no worse tha Fiat and parts are available easily! If not would definately go for the Intergra again reliable and will hold its value...
my mate mat has an m reg valver and spent £9k on a bb turbo conversion, with water cooler etc he only runs 8PSI most of time and with that he has over 200bhp! At 14psi is around 250bhp but has had problems with drive shafts! He went to Nurbring with my Brother early in year before I had my cup...
Jefferies Tyres in bromsgrove can get tyres cheaper than anywhere I;ve come accross exspecially yoko! I bought AVS for my standard rims on me CUP including fitting balance etc for just £207!
I have rsport chip stainless exhaust K-tec cat replacement and BB tunings green airfilter, I have done each mod in stages using a set peace of road and a stop watch there is a 1 second difference to 75mph marker with all mods. The green air filter is better for track use and pulls beter with...
I own a cup and have just bought a Pug 205 Mi16 engine fitted it is also badged as a 1.6 gti as thats what it was originally, my cup handles better and as much as it pains me to admit!!! the Pug is quicker than my Cup upto 70mph due to the gearbox being for a 1.6, not the 1.9 16v engine, but in...
SEE my post under Renault dealers it could be a more serious problem as thats what happened with mine at first! Id get your alternator bolt looked at and a locking one fixed it acts as mount and if it comes out your car will cut out! See my pst for full details
Ive just order my new/replacement cup and get it on 30th december due to prblems Ive had with current one! See my post under Dealerships - sorry its long though
Mazda looks good but is not very quick similar to a cup! IThe EVO VII is fast and WRX STI ppp is also quick, but the focus looks a bit different and is rarer? Its a tough one but if I had to choose it would probably be the EVO VIII, would Santa insure it though and pay the fuel bills
I have fitted the excellent unoffically launched chip from RSport and mine revs to 7850rpm, my light comes on way before but its quicker to keep reving it especially in second as mine will now do 69mph in 2nd, 98 in 3rd, 126 in 4th and i have only managed 153mph in 5th but had to slow down as...
I own a 172 cup and could easily afford an ordinary 172 as I only paif £10200 for my cup NEW! Its definately faster as my mates have 172s and I always beat them, unless its wet! On the track my cup will stick with most new elise 135 and easily out drag the old basic elise for nearly half the...

I want to improve the brakes of my CUP as I often use it on the track but do use it every day! Is it best to swap hjust the bads although I think my discs might be knackered as they look blue, but not scorched. The pads still look new though. My mate swears by black diamond discs and advise...
