    Mocal socketless hose. GIVE ME YOUR TIPS

    I've used this. As someone mentioned above. Lots of force and boiling water. You need the fitting and the hose HOT and then use dishcloths or rags so you don't get burnt. Push and twist and keep going. Eventually it'll go. Once its on it's not coming off unless you cut it. And then you have to...

    Eaton supercharger

    It's not hard. More concerned about space for it all where the A/C is. More losses than a rotrex but a damn sight cheaper

    Eaton supercharger

    Anyone fitted one to a Clio? The M62 would be the most apt.

    Omex ecu 700 & loom

    Yes. It's better than the 600 series. You have the potential to use a 197/200 dephaser and have more control over the VVT too.

    Cheapest inlet matching

    I have set up a group buy now. £100 for both parts of the inlet to be matched!! http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?693198-Matched-inlets-(both-parts)-£100&p=9480244#post9480244

    Throttle Bodies question.

    Don't want to know what a Nova is like at 170mph! My Mk2 Fiesta at a genuine 140mph was quite a scary place to be. In my Focus its nothing!

    DTA S40

    I've got a nearly new DTA S40 with innovate wideband sat here from my zetec turbo. To save it going to waste I'm contemplating sticking it on the Clio. My questions are:- Is it capable (spec wise) of running on a Ph1 with all the sensors, VVT etc.? Will it cause issues with dash lights...

    Yes. I could also set up a group buy

    Cheapest inlet matching

    I can send mine off, have them matched, blasted and painted for £150 including return delivery. The guys work is second to none so I'll see if I can get a spare inlet set unless I go for yeecup's

    Green plastidipped 197

    +1, wouldn't mind doing my car that colour. A guy I know does wrapping and he's done a few matte silver/grey cars, looks incredible

    Newman camshafts!!

    Dan, I don't know how much experience you have of maps by A: RS Tuning or B: custom Henk map. To gauge the difference of the cams I was going to take my car to a local dyno dynamics RR with matched inlets, 182 manifold, ktec sports cat, ktec cat back and RS tuner map. Then fit the cams and...

    Throttle Bodies question.

    For a genuinely quick car yes it's much cheaper. No denying that. My Fiesta with n/a zetec and a short gearbox felt fast enough with 814kg including me as driver and a full tank of fuel and the interior. That was 195bhp and 150lbft. With the Clio the same figures won't feel very quick, it's got...

    Phase 2 172 decat

    It's louder than a standard cat obviously but not as loud as a straight through decat. Quite a nice sound but it depends what exhaust you're running. I find on youtube people usually have a straight through decat and no centre box. I've got a Ktec system with centre box and back box so its...

    Cheapest inlet matching

    Cheapest isn't always the worst ;) . I've been looking at Ktec, Jamsport etc. and there's a good looking manifold on ebay but again that's Ph2. I'm in talks with the guy who ports heads for me at the moment. The ones on here are always Ph2 inlets, no good for me. And I don't want to buy a lower...

    Where is the cheapest place to do this? Before anyones says do it yourself the answer is NO! :rasp:

    Newman camshafts!!

    Not sure, I've got an RS tuner unlocked now and I was going to get a custom map from Fastchip. They would probably run fine on a generic remap though. There are no tuners around here to do a custom map so a remote one is the only option. As for checking its running ok there are a couple of good...

    Phase 2 172 decat

    No the 182 decat is quite different. I'll have a silenced Ktec decat for sale tomorrow. I'm after £80 http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=1564

    Shorter final drive

    I'm looking at getting a spare gearbox to rebuild for my Ph1 and want to fit a shorter final drive. A 4.21 would do nicely and you can get these in the JB1 as well as a 4.5 final. Could the crownwheel and pinion be fitted to a ph1 or cup box?
