I've had 4 centre sections replaced by Renault in 4 years of 172 (172 and Cup) ownership.
Most people on here have had the same problem at some point. Could be wear and tear and/or crap design to start with.
Think you'll find the rollers we're actually "bullsh*t". Take your car to another rolling road on the same day and you'd get a completely different result.

Both mods will be fine and the combination of the panel filter and exhaust will give the car a nice sound. All I meant was don't expect these mystical "+ 5bhp" figures that you see floating about.
182's much nicer than an Evo anyway ;)
There's very little point spending money on IK's and/or exahasts unless you merely want them for show/noise OR you intended to have some engine/breathing work done.
As for silly money £2k spent @ GDI/Yozzasport will get you one hell of a decent 182. If you want an Evo then get an Evo.
