    Reduced fuel economy when using 99 fuel compared to 95

    Mine does'nt like anything lower than RON98 ! Can very easily tell the difference. I do'nt care about the MPG though, just the performance

    Simota Carbon Fibre Aeroform for 182 ?

    *** reply to Slinkey*** I've had one and i could'nt get rid of it soon enough.. Tied a LOT of intake setups and this was the worse. The noise was incredible yep, i was ashamed to touch my throttle pedal every time when overtaking etc. The V6/JMS setup worked just right in my case (mapped...

    Simota Carbon Fibre Aeroform for 182 ?

    The filter Simota sells for the Clio RS is actually for a BMW 3 series... not that this should matter maybe, but it's def no filter dedicated to the RS

    182 manifold coversion on 172 help plz!

    When going for cams it's a good mod to do.. i had mine done with cambelt change, cams, and clutch. We took out the engine completely as it eases things I paid a LOT of $$ though, not sure if i would have done it if i knew in advance. The car is a screamer now though so i'm very happy

    Kevin, i have looked in to this and a Whiteline rear Anti sway/roll bar seems a very good option/sollution ! Balance-motorsports do them over in the UK. I'm getting one too.

    Engine Dynamics Cams

    ^^ your power seems allright, but your torque does'nt really add up to the equation . It's on the low side. Translating it to Newton meters it's 177 or so , but like you said the altitude and heat could be a prob. My C&B cams have the same profile but it makes 200+NM torque and 174 hp...

    exhaust manifold

    get a 182 manifold , but only when you go all out. leave it alone when not going for cams / itb's / or the like. i did it but it was a $$ of work. Pro is the MOT once a year , cat is (once adapted) very easy to replace. (mine was cammed + inlet-work etc., worked nicely)

    This airbox set up

    Who cares about looks when they're hidden under the bonnet haha, it needs to be FUNCTIONAL under there, that's all

    This airbox set up

    @ Medici; So this is why you pm'd me for my picture. You're welcome ... ? it was a definate change for the better to throttle response, actually gained a little torque ; flattened my torque curve noticably where there used to be a small dip. Was on the same RR . Funny how people...

    Urgent Help, loud engine noise.

    maybe alternator, check if it's getting red hot when driving/driven . I could'nt see/play the vid on me Mac, so wild shot (mine does a pitch noise, dissapears when warm. Alternator maybe after 75K+ i think on mine)

    Valeo Clutch faliure

    That really sucks Marten ... I would def not give up and trie it through other channels, Someone at Valeo will not want their good name dragged through s**t on a big forum When the Renault gearbox warrants a torque of 200NM , the clutch (Valeo is OEM i believe) must also be ? And you...

    Newbie + Clio 172 Dyno results and questions

    first trie reading out fault codes/diagnostics, lambda-fault should show up if that's the prob. Will save you money when it turns out to NOT be the lambda

    Oil In Brake Fluid Reservoir (Not me don't worry lol)

    better this than putting brakefluid in your oilcap :eek:

    just fitted a decat, now sounds really tinny

    also check if all your mounts are "hanging free" , no metal contact. Think of the space the exhaust needs to expand/shrink , and adjsut all mounts to be able to cover this. It can cure a LOT of inside cabine resonance/ noise

    just fitted a decat, now sounds really tinny

    ^^ this i have the same setup and mine never sounded "tinny" . Once some coal/s**t has build up in there it must get better

    Ported inlets plus cylinder head

    it's more about "pulsing" , or so i have read and heard . This is why you should never smoothe out the work your doing. Have a look at the oem work, looks like they took a chivel to it. For a reason that is.
