I think these guys have unfortunately died of old age since they posted it, shame

just do what i did and call BTB saying you want another piece of pipe so-and-so in length with flanges to replace the cat.. as ali said, a decat is a decat.. They probably have all the measurments there anyway for a 182... cant remember how much my bit of pipe was, £40 quid, dunno now...

to be honest, I have some nice polyglass comps up front and a 10" diamond audio sub in the boot and just didnt really get on with it... it sounded "not bad".. but got wound up with all the farting around wiring it up (especially putting new wire into the doors argh) feeding wires up and down...

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) ^^ True, plus if i had gone that route people may then argue why not just turbo the 172 lump.. although, isnt the Meggy gearbox bigger/stronger which is a plus? but isnt it also TOO big and the main problem when putting the megane lump in the 1*2. Thats why i would cant...

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) thanks all Daz: Yeh i know i know! :) - im 50/50 on it Gray: mmm, impressive stuff by Flan.. i was just his helper that day, passing, lifting etc :) Pat: unfortunately yes!... there is 2 litres spread ALL over a total of 50 miles of the M3, M25 and M1 combined...

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) Right - simply not had time recently to add an update but a big one is due!. Managed to get the car to Flans with a dead gearbox, stopping a few times on the M25 filling up the box as we go.. just about got there when something went just yards from his.. ! lucky...

yep - mine was a prospeed system, awful

hillclimb, best exhaust you couldve chosen thats on the market. As Vecbtb says, nothing will come close... what i especially love about mine is the noise.. very very quiet, perfect. god knows how people go about with ridiculous loud exhausts now a days (i used to have one and dreaded the 80mph...

^^^ Same set up as that, the amp is on the back of the sub and all descreet...what id ideally like is a digital audio switch box where the PC, TV and PS3 go into that then 1 wire to the z5500s control box

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) Hi steve - Yes im hoping it was just on its last legs and the Rolling road killed it... Ive just bought £50 worth of oil and prepped the car for its 60 mile trip to Flans tomorrow morning with a piece of hose it the gearbox oil filler gapped with metal putty running to the...

Re: **show Es Your Engine Bay** equally good! nice work

Re: **show Es Your Engine Bay** thank you mate

Re: **show Es Your Engine Bay** its my virtually finished Clio with Audi TT engine inside... hopefully done this weekend (theres a project thread on it in the projects section somewhere)

Re: **show Es Your Engine Bay**

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) .. Just ordered 2 new wheel hub nuts too

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) haha - THIS sunday? excellent... it is going to be a RIGHT mission getting her there... im foreseeing 4 gearbox oil fill ups - plus the 2Litres i need to fill the new box with! christ thats alot of money on oil! doh.. Going to be interesting filling the gearbox oil on...

Great exhaust - top quality. Dont know if you have seen but i have one on my Cup, yes i realise it is a ph2 but im sure the quality isnt going to be so different. I have pics in my thread in the project section if it helps.. but, youve both made a very good choice with that system.

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) haha - no you little fart :) "Home start" is an add on on my policy - takes you almost where you want within reason... I went to use them the other week to take to edge exhausts but because i didnt have tax they couldnt!!.. Run it dry??... id like to preserve the...

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) Thinking about it, ive home start, i'll RAC it....

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) Ha - do you think the casing is definately gone then mate? - The oil is coming exactly from that bit in the pic, cant see any holes in the casing anywhere if that helps. tbh i dont think it would get to yours, 65mile away and it would probably chuck that oil out in tops...

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) Flan: After a whole day of research im pretty clued up on the damn things now mate - but was told this from people on the VAG forums dude plus the following : "You should be able to work out where the oil is coming from fairly easily, the clutch should be ok... i had a...

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) hehe you dont say! :)... im thinking its the seal on the input shaft(but would it leak THAT bad if its that?), or worse the final drive rivets failed or rollpin... either way its gearbox off jobbie... FLAN!!!!, that spare o2j you were talking about? :)

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) Well - Me thinking the fuel pump upgrade will be the last of my problems eh... Realised from the rolling road sesh that i had 2 oil leaks.... 1 seemed fine and a case of the dipstick being mullered and oil being spat out of it.. sorted this by buying a new plastic...

As above - need to know the pins for the temp and the rev counter please... Sorry have already posted this before in another area but believe its best here as its "electrical" afterall.. Anyway, In the fuse box there is a white plastic block, if any one has a diagram for this then that...

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) Right, fuel pump ordered, will be getting it end of next week argh...ah well. In the mean time, i want to do some other odds and sods this weekend which includes a bit of outstanding wiring - There is a small (couple of inch cubed) white plastic square within the engine...

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) haha yeh or the M25>M3 south sweeping righthander at 50mph+ and that'll do the trick for sure :)

bumpy

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) Davo: yes they are ridiculous arent they.. Apparently the company that made the coil packs for VAG went bankrupt soley due to them being returned under guarentee. I'm thinking of still changing all the coils BUT they still work fine whilst the car is running, i tested each...

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) Yeh i was thinking about that 2nd wire - what did you mean to say here chap? "find out with the second wire is coming off the ALT" i know its early dont worry... thing is, i think thats a red herring slightly because as you say the battery wouldve died long ago!... It was...
