Indeed thats what i'm going to do chap, save up the pennies and hopefully give it to Mr Faulkes to sort out! ;)

So officially from today the car has been SORN'd for the foreseeable future until things are fixed... :(

Already tried the decoder ring trick with 2 other decoder rings but no to avail. I'm guessing the best way to get something like this fixed then is a reputable auto electrician? Nick

Not bad for only 150bhp with almost 150k miles on the clock! ;)

Echo that!

Some good pictures guys! Nice to see the Audi getting some exposure ;)

Only just seen this Dan, same sort of problem with mine. Immobiliser stays on permanent and wont start, i've had it plugged into Renault Clip and there's no response from the ECU on mine either! Mine only had the battery disconnected for a month also, so i'll probably be giving Mr Faulkes a...

Flol! Highly doubt it Pete! Will Probably amaze people with it's understeer/brake fade after the first corner! ;)

Good stuff! :) I can make that so where and when as i'm lazy and cant be assed to look though the pages of South Central's spam HQ ;)

Indeed got a few people coming to have a look at sorting the car soonish. At the mo i've been working silly hours so havent got them pictures yet Chris, still at work now until probably 3am! Will be like this for a few nights so will try and get some up at the weekend after i've given it a...

When is it fletcher? Might take the audi out for a spin! ;)

Lol! I love CS!

Yeah not bad mate! Yeah turning the clio into a racecar, you need to pay your membership so you can see my thread in the projects section! Hopefully I can get it road going within a couple of months, then we'll have to have a little photoshoot, standard vs racecar ;) Been working all over the...

Love your car Ben! So clean and mint, starting to prefer standard Cups over modified examples! Hows things been? Havent seen you in ages!

Laine has done a fantastic job of overlaying two graphs, one result being in paint! lol Inevitably he's put the paint result line in for the RS-2 which is incorrect... Both RS-2 power/torque lines should be higher than that, it may seem like i'm clutching at straws with that but if your going to...

Hi there Steve, cheers for the heads up! All my lights ect work so what you've said about the 5v signal wire could be the fix for my woes, going to give an auto electrician a shout in the week and see if they can sort it as like I said its gone a bit to above me all this loom lark! Cheers J...

Oversteer with braking fail... Guess some people have to learn the hard, hard way.

Yeah me too Chris! Want to be chasing you round tracks seeing as yours is ready ;) Yeah will put some pictures up this evening now it's home. Needs a mega clean also!

One of the biggest differences in power and torque for my 172 Cup but supposedly the 182 inlets are pretty good as standard. If you have the spare cash go for it otherwise i'd just save it for something else non power related.

LOL What a plum! Obviously thought the TRACKDAY we were doing was a test day. Really wanted to injure the driver of that car after what he said... "These things happen in racing", makes me angry still!

Not including the car the total spent on mine just in tinkering bits not consumables is knocking on the door of £7,500... FML Depresses you when you think about it, however when i'm back out in the car i'll quickly forgot what i've just said! :)

Right here's my Rolling Road printouts from the time I purchased the car. This is the car when it was completely STANDARD. As you can see, an average figure from a 172 Cup I feel as standard. This is the highest STANDARD INLET result I had... With this setup I had Matched Inlets...

I'll stick up my graphs this evening also, from standard to RS-2, and then onto the Xtra.

This seems a bit extreme to be brutally honest, it is only a Clio not a supercar!

Change mine either every 6 months/6k miles/5 trackdays. Just plain and simple Halfords 5w/40 full synthetic oil also as I get it cheap on trade!

Havent touched it at all matey, I havent tried bumping the car either as yet and with regards to the ECU we plugged it into Renault CLIP as said and it didnt even read that the ECU was there. Its out of my depth checking power feeds to stuff also, but will ask a few friends to see if they can...

Have you driven in a car with an RS-2 fitted? And lol, I'm not even going to bother replying to the rest of what you said and its frankly retarded...

My Cup did 151ft lb's on the standard RS-2, but with the extended 50mm runner length it made 158ft lb's and an extra 5bhp.

Also I just want to point out, the difference in power/torque between ITB's and the RS-2 may look like big but in reality from my experience on track the extra 10bhp/15lb/ft of torque made no difference at all. People can scream the high hills buy frankly I don't care, it is what it is...
