Audi build quality, I'd expect nothing of the sort. I happily live with numerous rattles, and poor fitment in exchange for a good price, good spec and a fun drive.
I don't expect though that my steering wheel dies on me after 2.5 years, on any type of car i've never seen a steering wheel...
My right hand thumb grip is fked, torn to ribbons, and the wheel is also sticky in parts where the surface has become broken.
Really ain't happy with it though as Renault will gladly sting you for £350 for a new one. My car is still under warranty too. Phoned Renault UK and they didn't want to...
So it does feel a fair bit quicker lad?
Was thinking of getting this done sometime soon after i've got my inlet sorted.
8000RPM though, that sounds like mechanical suicide for a Renault :(
The last but one video, driving like that in a residential area (you can even see people walking along) and overtaking, well you deserve the shaft imo.
Luck of the draw, more often than not though one day your struts WILL piss oil. Trouble is on -60mm springs the struts are under contant compression, and thats before you drive it hard. The seals fail, and the struts will die.
Test your clutch Jonas, park it up and put the handbrake on, put it in 5th, depress the clutch fully and let out the clutch really slowly - it should jump forward and stall, if you get most of the way out before it stalls then its probably slipping. However im willing to bet its something else...
As i said, if you want to lose bhp/torque then get yourself an IK, very rare that you will see any benefit from an IK. Depends if your after power, or whether you want the IK sound. Personally i'd be keeping your ITG panel.
Having raced an ST the other day in my 172, i'd take the Clio everytime. Having said that i prefer the look of the clio too, although the interior of the Ford is likely to rattle less.
For me would be a 182.
Keep the panel filter, Maxogen won't buy you any bhp what so ever, on the contrary will probably loose some torque too.
-S/S Catback = +3-5bhp
-Sports cat = +3bhp
-Group N = +5bhp
-Inlet matching = +5-10bhp
Bang for buck id get the panel filter fitted, i'd then get the exhaust done, then get...
