I'll get most of that money back tbh Mark, as the car doesn't run still to get it running and race ready is still going to cost at least £5,000 upwards which I'll never get back and even then I wont be competitive. Having helped the Burpspeed guys and seeing the class' as said earlier I can...
Lol, merely cannot be arsed to spend thousands on a car that won't be competitive! Having thought about the grids in the tintops, being in the 2000cc class is the worst one for being competitive whereas in the 1800cc and 1600cc class you can
be alot more competitive. Especially with a honda...
Your very persistent Dan I'll give you that, yes I might actually sell it now as the interest in building a Clio racecar has gone. Honda's are the way to go I think now.
Dan send me a pm and I'll get back to you.

Not my bag tbh, wheels dont look right and have poor fitment. Not a fan of the front lights or numberplates either, I think with BMW's im more of an OEM fan than modified in general.
Lol, you may be waiting for an update for a while Russ... Will explain more tonight when im back from work, lets just say i'll be having some ///M Power in my life in the next couple of weeks so this may be delayed a while.
Think you've hit the nail in the head there Russ, I can imagine if the RS2 had a larger carbon airbox it would be better for other work like cams etc but on a standard car it would work as well/loose throttle response as well.
Having driven Daves trophy around a track, that setup is epicly fun to drive and comfy using it day to day. If I had a 182 that's the setup I'd be using.

Just get them fitted! What are these results also regarding the Ktec cams, where can I see the results?
Damn you Russ! Was literally going to the bank to get the money and you got your grubby little mits on it! ;) Looks a fantastic car for the money, with all the goodies as well makes it a true bargain!
Cheers also Tony, near enough force feeding me with all the food you guys put out. Fantastic hosts and brave for doing it!
Good to meet all the guys staying there, all top people and always up for a laugh! Can imagine a CS night out would be messy but absolutely EPIC!
Just like to say how also how good the show was, met quite a few new people and were all sound! Think it was a clever idea starting a little later in the day, prevented people from getting bored too quickly. Also there was a good selection of traders all selling good stuff, most of the time at...
No, i'm a realist.
I'm not trying to take the piss i'm just clearly stating, i'd personally take it to someone thats had lots of experience in mapping a specific manufactuer that's qualified rather than every tom/dick and harry's cars. The fact it shows in the rolling road printout, why make...
I'd like people to be charged to come into the show.
The reason for that is that there hundreds of scummy people that that will have something for nothing, whilst they clamber all over people cars for pictures and also helping themselves into peoples cars (The Burpspeed Racecar for an example).
Oh dear!
I'll give it a year before that blows itself to a million pieces revving that high and not having a 'cold limiter' when its not up to temperature, its there for a reason...
This is true to an extent, with the extended runner length it only made a few more bhp but made almost 10 lb/ft of torque which is a reasonable gain. Guess it depends on how compromised your car is already.
What a strange cage, no cross bars going to the rear but some random bits added between the b pillar loop. Would rather roll without one personally... Sorry to sound nasty.
Had to get out in the car over the winter with all that snow about, only car I had at the time with the clio with R888's and I had no problem getting around. As long as your not an idiot in the car and drive to the conditions then you'll be fine, though they do wear out rather quick on the road!
