my old saxo would eat 182's etc for breakfast, but then again it did have throttle bodies etc etc etc.
fun per pound, you cant go wrong with them. If i had the money i would buy another one any day.
and as been said, strip it, few mods, you got a sub 7 seconds 0-60 and a 19 second to 100 car!
always useful to try take a look at a car under different lights, say a garage forecourt at night (not very practical i know).
as if panels have been resprayed, and the paint is slightly metermeric, then it will stand out like a sore thumb.
i am still undecided about the 197. i like some parts of it, dislike others.
i also find it hard to tell the extra body width etc, as i have never seen a clio 3, sat next to a RS3.
i wonder if the 6 speed box will fit a 182??
the exhaust will be tuned from the factory, and whislt putting a decat on will increase power (as no thick cat for gasses to get through), it will not porduce as much power as a decat, but with an expansion box/silencer.
taken from gmc motorsports site, about their BTB exhaust for the saxo...
could of been like that when you fitted it.
and surely you would of noticed the car running rough etc if it had done any damage.
i would of thought a chunk of metal that big would struggle getting past the valves.
but worth an investigation none the less!
i got a Tom Tom One a few weeks ago, awesoem bit of kit!
Tesco where doing TT 300's, 500's etc at 20% off a while back. might be worth a look.
tho i beleive the TT 300 is now a discontinued model!
i am forever hitting the limiter in 2nd and 3rd, car just seems to pull there so quick, and also, i am used still a bit used to driving my old saxo VTS, which would scream to 7800 rpm.
