    New Cat vs SH Cat

    Is it worth getting a new one for an extra £30 or so if I'm just gonna cut half of it up (to do the sleeve mod)? Or should I just stop being a tight arse and get a new one haha

    This thing is too loud...

    For those who said it doesn't seem that loud....I can hear it from 150yards away when it's just idling!! Lol And this is literally no exaggeration...I put a laser range finder on it

    Does this torque figure seem high?

    I'm assuming that the torque result is 163.1 ft/lb...unless I'm reading the wrong one (wouldn't be surprised haha)

    Does this torque figure seem high?

    Company called 'Monster Tuning Ltd' in Telford have apparently mapped the Clio I bought, Reason I say apparently is that I don't have the dyno results in paper So I did a bit of searching on their FB and actually found that they did Remap it, well there's a photo of the car on their Dyno at...

    New Cat vs SH Cat

    Sorry I should of made it clearer - I meant the backbox is sagging a little low, so the backbox mounts I'll agree with you on that one, you might get an extra 1-2bhp but hardly with it for the MOT hassle

    New Cat vs SH Cat

    Here's a photo of the current system : The exhaust is sagging abit too, but I'm not sure if this exhaust used the standard mounts? I'll try get some better photos of the backbox and see

    New Cat vs SH Cat

    I can get the cat work done myself, have access to a car ramp and a mates a decent welder so it's just the cost of the cat and materials I do know a couple of 'friendly' MOT testers, but my thinking was I can make it quieter and MOT friendly at the same time....kill 2 birds with one stone Also...

    New Cat vs SH Cat

    So I'm deciding to put a cat back on my 182, so deciding what cat I should be looking at Do I just get an OEM secondhand one? Or get a new one off eBay like this : http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=130626847278&globalID=EBAY-GB Or any other suggestions I should look at...

    Think I'm gonna try a Cat first and see how that goes...hoping that'll just bring the noise down a little bit

    This thing is too loud...

    Yeh just a 1.4 Corsa Exlusiv, been a great first car but after almost a couple of years of driving it, it's time to get something a bit quicker I'd like to think it is tastefully modified, not your typical corsa which is generally slammed and a loud exhaust haha Worst of this is that I can't...

    Here's a slightly longer vid : https://flic.kr/p/v35iw1 In real life it sounds deeper, not quite as raspy

    Was after a Blue, Black was second option but went and saw it and saw how tidy it was and just had to have it

    This thing is too loud...

    If I'm honest, I have no idea - I don't know what a standard clio 182 setup is like, so I'm not sure what should be where Yes I know someone who is pretty good with welding, so might get him on the case!

    This thing is too loud...

    Here's a couple of quick snaps, I'll get the DSLR out when I've given it a clean I reckon it sounds nice if I'm honest, Here's a quick vid of it : Untitled by Jimbob_2705, on Flickr I only just went up to 5k, you can just hear it open up for a second....chickened out as my dog was being a...

    This thing is too loud...

    I'm just looking at the emissions of the last MOT which was done with this exhaust : CO : 0.01% (Limit is <3.5%) HC: 7PPM (Limit is <1200PPM) I have a feeling these results aren't from the Clio....haha Interestingly though they seemed to pick up a few things on advisory's (which all work was...

    This thing is too loud...

    I don't mind the noise myself, in fact I quite like it Somehow I don't think the Police will like it quite as much though.... What's the worst that could happen if they stopped me? I'm guessing just a fine and change it within so many days or something? I'll look into that, Can you run a...

    This thing is too loud...

    Finally bought a Clio (they'll be a thread to follow at some point) but it's got a custom exhaust system on it....and bloody hell isn't it loud!! I've got to admit it sounds amazing, but I know it's just going to attract unwanted attention! So looked underneath and this is what we have ...

    V5C Advice

    No worries buddy, appreciate the help!! All I'm wondering if there's any comeback from any previous owners

    V5C Advice

    I did see, but technically only as the 'existing' owner (I assume the name on the V5) which I'm obviously not, so I'd rather just trailer it tbh Anybody got any other advice/thoughts on this matter?

    V5C Advice

    Awaiting to hear back from the garage, but they obviously had it as some point as I've seen there old eBay advert (not sure if it actually sold on there) Apparently the reason for no section 10 is that the current owner on the V5 (who in reality now is a previous owner) filled that in mistake...
