    Clio 172 60-140mph speedo run

    That's about 135 tops. The speedos get further out the higher the speeds. I hope the cozzers don't catch up with you, for your sake! lol.

    Playstation 3 = Awesome

    He's one of a myriad of them on here Roy... but good luck getting any of them to admit it. They need therapy tbh.

    100% standard cars

    I got a bit arsed with my mods and sold a couple.... then looked at a standard 172 and thought... mine looks much better. lol. Only done the basic bolt on stuff. At it's most modified it had ITG Maxogen (Had Viper prior, now ITG panel - gash :(), Hillpower Inlets, Renaultsport GrpN ECU...

    Clio Air box development

    It couldn't be much more different. Bigger filter, different shape, different inlet, different material....

    Clio Air box development

    I was going to say that getting rid of the 90 degree elbow will have made as much difference as anything. I've no doubt that the way you've done it is perfectly fine. But it pisses me off that people make out the Maxogen is crap and pointless when a) They've never tried one and b) the only...

    Clio Air box development

    Only for the looks? I think not. It's hella expensive, but nothing performs better in my experience (although I'm yet to try the ghetto approach. I've tried the rest!) And not in the opinion of Technical Director for BPM, No 1 Mechanic for TW and Technical Engineer for Pectel Engine Control...

    Mid Range Torque

    And the guy doing the review knows sweet fa about the Clio's by the look of it

    ITG Filter fro 182FF

    The Maxogen is as good as it gets off the shelf. But it's expensive compared to gains (OEM website claim 6-7 bhp iirc) All I can tell that a replacement panel filter does is save you a few quid come service time. I've noticed no difference to standard. My Maxogen coupled with a GrpN ECU were...

    Playstation 3 = Awesome

    Naaaaa. I have no need for blueray or surfing the internet on my tv. Although I can do that with my Wii if the mood takes. And I don't have a problem with the file types either. My current 360 is quieter than my old one but's it's still noisier than a ps3 tbh.

    Playstation 3 = Awesome

    I find the 360 is a pretty decent media centre for streaming etc... but something like PLayTV would be tip top tbh.

    Who needs a maxogen for induction roar??

    I do :( I s**t panel filters :( I wasn't really that loud though tbh :S....

    195/45 or 205/45 R16

    Ditto. Although the 205's in question were A539's :dead:

    can the clio 200 be a grower

    It'll look better in black. Most ugly cars do. It hides the lines lol

    172 cat back exhaust bangin on rear axle

    You need to pack the rear mount with something. I used some re-inforced rubber hose and cable ties. Can still move back and forth with heat expansion but stops it banging.

    Turbo or super charger?

    Just nip down to PC world and get 4 PC fans ;)

    On the face of it that sounds a fair price mate.

    Recommend a decent wireless router?

    I have the GT version of Richs' router. Been faultless for about 5 years.

    what is so special about the trophy setup?

    The development of the damper was done by Sachs. But I accept your opinion. I don't agree with it, but I accept it lol. And I'm glad I don't live where you Trophy owners live. It's funny how the roads are conveniently s**tty becuase they're find where I live lol.. ;)

    what is so special about the trophy setup?

    I never said it wasn't a fantastic car. It obvioulsy is. I just think the dampers are overkill. All that cash? They never spent that much. The answers in your post. They only made 500! But why does my opinion have to echo the 'worlds' press? It doesn't. It's mine and I'm entitled to it. I've...

    what is so special about the trophy setup?

    Considerably firmer imho. Although the seats might have something to do with it too. They were only going to get 500 sales whatever happened? Don't see your point tbh. And don't forget the 182 was already raved over by the press. They were bound to do cart wheels if they put some gimmick...

    what is so special about the trophy setup?

    It all sounds a bit OTT to me. But then I'm not a racing driver and I'm not an Automotive engineer lol !

    what is so special about the trophy setup?

    I'm 28 years old but lol'd @ "If you have a thicker rod, you either need a bigger shock or a remote reservoir to hold the required fluid." tbh :o

    What ever happend to Nick Reid's Blue 1.8 clio turbo?

    Stripped Williams 1 will beat that IIRC

    what is so special about the trophy setup?

    Dig it out if you can dude! I'm sure I read somewhere that the remote reservoir also alows for a shorter strut without compromising suspension travel.

    what is so special about the trophy setup?

    Some of them do. I agree with your point though. The term coilover has become a generic term for upgraded spring/dampers (usually ones which are adjustable) and is misinterpreted as a result. They must have been the ones I've seen lol :o

    what is so special about the trophy setup?

    Cracking car. A bit too firm for my liking though. But I guess I'm getting old lol :(
