    clio question

    Its down the front of the engine/gearbox . Best way to describe is if the little butterfly bolt came out it would hit the back of the radiator its about the middle of the car right down. You'll see the little butterly like bit on the bolt if you see the gearbox.

    The 172 needs some special tools to set it correctly otherwise you might mess it up as other gaarges have done so in the past.

    60mm lowering

    Your shocks will wear out quicker but it depends on so many things how long they last. I'd always recomend and changing springs and dampers together for ride quality.

    Spax dampers any good?

    Renault Clio 1.6 16v Turbo project

    If you use normal fuel I'd say about 180hp is probably about the limit with an intercooler and more long term cooling using just water etc seems a waste. If you can get the water to atomise and realy cool them I'd guess gearbox will be your big problem say 220hp but you'd need a fair bit ot...

    Fitting New Speedo Sensor to Clio 172 ??

    Just stick the new one it its a twist fit I think. Don't use grease. Check the wiring connection on the dash and sensor though instead they can be problematic.

    Sports cat any good?

    No way 5hp maybe 2hp on a 1.6 say 3 with a remap. Depends what else you have on the car though. Its not worth trying to tune a car let alone a N/A car but thats never stopped people throwing money at them.
