    AVERAGE POWER GAIN

    There's your problem, 172's never came ouf of the factory with 172ps/bhp. Most in reality will struggle to make 160bhp, standard. On it's own, a panel filter will do next to nothing. Couple it with a decent exhaust, matched inlets and remap and you should be pushing 170-175bhp..

    Autotrader, PH and this place. Steer clear of eBay, imo.

    What oil

    PMSL. Oil's oil. As long as it keeps the engine lubricated, and providing it's changed regularly, I'd bet my life you wouldn't notice the difference between Halfords, Motul, Mobil or any other oil manufacturer.

    Firstly, get your car away from Kwik fit. Those f*****s will mug their own granny off, let alone someone they don't even know.. Is this on the Megane?

    Battery Charge?

    Let it go flat. Just charge it when you want to restart it, and it'll be fine!

    Ph1 172 Anti Roll Bar Bushes?

    Spend the money on a rear ARB instead, imo.

    swapping front hubs over to 58mm question

    Yep. Jack the track rod end up from underneath or it'll just spin. 13mm socket, and the nut will come off. Then, t**t the thing out. It's best to put the nut on about 4 threads just incase you damage the TRE.

    Is a Trophy worth the extra 2-3k over a 172 cup???

    If you want a cheap RS, get a decent Ph1. If you've got more cash to play with, get a Trophy. Only 1*2's I'd ever own again. Trophy needs cable throttle and it's as good as it can be, imo.

    Caliper Piston Rubber Boot

    Give this place a call. Used them on a mates 306, and the parts were top notch, and only about £25 per axle. http://www.biggred.co.uk/renaultshop.html

    Cam belt, Aux belt + PAS pump? this a good price?

    Don't drive it. If Fred doesn't know something about a Clio, it's not worth knowing, lol.

    Cam belt, Aux belt + PAS pump? this a good price?

    Won't it drive with a knackered pump? I've never had one go..

    Cam belt, Aux belt + PAS pump? this a good price?

    Who quoted for that? It's worth speaking to the specialists on here, as plenty of small garages will c**k the cambelt up. Oh, and make sure they do an aux belt kit, not just the belt. If the belt goes, it usually takes the cambelt with it, costing big money. I've got a second hand PAS pump...

    mount under battery...

    No worries mate. Support engine from underneath with jack and wood. (There is a lower gearbox mount which should stop it hitting the deck, but you can't be too careful). Remove battery and airbox. Remove the whole mount, which is bolted to the top of the box, and the car about three bolts to...

    Ktec ultra performance exhaust

    You just have to use a shitload. Most of my old exhausts have looked like a plasterer's been juggling under the car, but never had an exhaust blow, lol.
