Can you get a Xenon Headlight Conversion for a clio DCi? If so how much and where can i find out more information?

The original tests were something like 0-60 in 8.5 secs, 0-90 in 17secs, 50-70 in 5th 6.5secs but that was with a full belly of supermarket fuel Ive managed to clock some quicker times since then usin the more expensive ultimate diesel & ensuring the tank is much much lower tho Must be cos...

Nah teh yokies are good in the wet! hav to watch it a bit in the wet once the tread gets low tho lol

^ Have you tried RS Tuning or Angel Tuning? I think its hard for ppl to quote exact figures in terms of gains as some make less and some make more... When i went to RS Tuning i didn't have an exact figure in mind, but wen i got it on the rollers (which also vary lol) then it came out at...

^ lol, uve seen my times, the'r quite significantly faster than yours, i beleive the variable geo turbo on the 100 is superior too Weren't u changing to another vehicle last i heard?

Flippin heck! if he can ask so can i How can i improve the handling of my dci clio? Would new springs do it or would i hav to do dampers as well & how much would it cost to fit cash in hand? ;)

or you could map the dci 100 if you can find one, mines 130bhp atm & my road tax is only £35 a year :) used to be £50 but its come down. Apparently they wil map to 150bhp but thats takin it a bit far i think A mapped 80 will neva hav the pace of a mapped 100, my 50-70 in 5th is quicker than a...

How much does it cost for a full tank & what kinda milegage could i expect out of that? Also how much pence per mile do you think a 172 cup is? and would its ecomomy be slightly better than the full fat version cos its lighter? Thinking of gettin one see

Yeah its mine, highly recommend RS Tuning who did mine, another one i keep hearing about is Angel Tuning. A guy on here reckoned they said he could push it up to 145 bhp but not safe imo, think he opted for 130 same as me

Yeah the dci 100 is 5 speed, its the new bulker 106bhp one that has 6 but you don't want that lol Go for the diesel 100 and a decent remap imo, its faster, cheaper to run, tax and insure, mine eats 106 gti / 1.6 petrol clios for breakfast - 130bhp 190lbs per ft

Thanks Gaz44, by that i meant "most cars on the road" at the time, but its clearly not a 172 beater :)

Thanks PMurray, took it down Renault today cos of that warning light and the diagnostics turned up 2 faulty glow plugs and a blocked EGR Valve! Nice one! ;)

Alas no-one is wise enuf lol? Wots happened to edde?

Wel surely ditz that would fail me my MOT then? cos literally soon as the turbo kicks in it pumps out the soot like its goin outta fashion!

I hav a remapped DCi 100, it does 50-70 in 5th in 6.5secs When i put my foot down the revs soar like a petrol as the car accelerates & i can feel the excessive torque coming into play, but at around 3.5k the REVS START TO FALL for about 0.5k and then rise again as they should!! So the car...

Thanx for ure info guys, much appreciated! Umm wots the EGR valve? lol Yeah very nippy atm, my times are: 0-60 = 8.5secs 30-50 in 4th = 5 secs (starts below turbo range which is a pain) 50-70 in 5th = 6.5 secs Quarter mile claims to be 16.5 secs (that was on a meter tho)

Not too sure about the difference Nick, might simply be a brand name thing. If ure looking for more power i'd recommend a full remap at somewhere like RS Tuing where i had mine done. Its knocked 2seconds off my 0-60, 30-50,50-70 times & increased my MPG by around 10%. The price then was £345...

I had my clio dci 100 remapped a few months back & its now puttin out 130bhp and 190lbs/ft! Niiiiiice ;) Under hard accelleration the car produces an impressive smoke trail as i leave most other cars behind, however my only worry is, will that cause my car to fail its MOT on emissions? It...

Yeah much beter mate :) I used to hav a tuning box on mine for a while which was ok but a bit juddery. I took it off and got RS Tuning to do me a remap instead and it knocks spots off the box! more power and SMOOTH deliver of that power too - my MPG wen up by 10%

Ok, so any advise on what to do? will just changing the springs improve the performance drastically? or will i need to do the dampers with coilovers instead?

So whats the difference? It must be based on the same car essentially just presumably uprated? I'm new to this stuff so need advice really on a good set up :)

I wanna lower my dci so that it looks and handles like a cup 172. How do i do that? Can i just fit 172 springs to my standard dampers or would none of it fit anyway? Your advice please lol Also would lightening my dci (like they lightened the cup over the standard 172) make it any quicker? I...

LOL Come on buddy its not 'MUCH MUCH quicker than a standard 100', yours is what 10hp more??? Mapped my dci 100 today, its puttin out 130bhp & 198lbs/ft! see ya! :P

I hav dci 100 not lowered with clio sport 172 wheels that rubbed pretty nasty at the rear, esp on corners. Easily fixed tho by fitting 5mm spacers at the rear, bolts didn't need replacing. Hope that helps Mark

Stuart, Youve had your car chipped haven't u?? What kinda gains did you get and any effect on the MPG? :)

I hav a DCI 100 Dynamique on a 54 Plate :) Any Questions, email me! P.s) Never get an induction kit i had a nasty power loss experience with that lol

Yokahama a359's best ive eva used, transformed the handling of my car - might be best to get a set of 4 tho if you do imo

I hav a dci 100 and its fab! Yeah they stil are £50 a year to tax, and only group 5 insurance. Did 62MPG last month. Little bit stodgy round the corners, but i found lower profile yokies fixed that, and very good for overtaking. Gettin it remapped in 2 weeks, should see me 130 bhp and more...

Had my car on the rollers yesterday, was well disappointed!! The induction kit actually caused the car to LOSE power!! was a disappointing 93bhp with 119lbs torque. Not gonna bother to chip it now, thats proper depressed me, i'l get a 182 intead. Austec Racing (the specialise in TVR from the...

Nice one, gettin my dci 100 done next month, wot gains did u get?
