Hey guys,
I fitted my induction kit today as I was bored as poo. Half way through ripping out the old filter housing I decided that surely it would function fairly effectively as a heat shield for the induction cone? (Had to be better than leaving the cone open in the engine bay) + The...
I must admit I had APEX on my 1.2 and they were pretty comfortable for the drop they gave. They did roll a little more than the H&R springs I have now but for the price of them you can hardly complain!!
Thats a silly amount of money for a mod. lets face it, you could pay for engine mods to suit 100bhp nitrous jets on a 172 -and youd still have about £3500 in your pocket. Sod that!! And all because we want to fit a dump valve?
All depenmds on the size enclosure your sub needs. I found that many of them were below 1 cubic foot which is crap for some subs. The one for a 98> Clio is 0.85Cubic feet and sits in the offside boot corner
They are about 220 bhp They are turbos too I think. My mate is buying one. Bloody ugly if you ask me but I suppose its cheap Jap thrills isnt it? I think the performance 0-60 is around 7 seconds?

Yeah I was comparing them as standard, saw some really nice ones at Xtreme on the 15th. One tore past me that looked standard (save for a big Ppphhhwwwwwsssss as he changed gear!!), but it was in that 50mph bit so I didnt have a go!!

Damn it - I could have bought a Williams and saved a hell of a lot of money on insurance and up-front cost too...doh.
Right... 172 project is underway: Cams, Chip, Filter, exhaust, Re-map, Nitrous & fluffy dice. Im not having that!! hehehehe

Yeah, I have seen it on a Green RSi at R-Tec. They concluded theat there was nothing that they could do about it after playing twith the otrsion bar for ages
Mine dont feel all that fast to me anymore either - Check out Performance GTI topic in this forum. Interesting that quite a few Clios arent pulling 172 bhp as stated!!
So have we decided that a Willy is faster than a 172? I didnt think that was right (Was the bloke in the video caning it? - He seemed to accelerate/deccelerate a lot!!)
