    The £900 PH1 172 Track weapon

    no no no... cage weighs to much :o My argument against the cage is that the road going frame is in theory strong enough for road use/crash when it was the weight of a tank.. now that its gonna be 100+kgs lighter, hopefully, therefore if it was to roll there would be less weight on the pillars...

    Decat?

    De-cat was one of my fav mods, on the 182's there a piss of piss to fit ;)... 172's on the other hand are a nightmare, specially if your doing it with out a ramp :dapprove: I found the decat really changes the way the car feels, the extra torque is very handy for below 5k & the rasp noise...
