He bought them, here's his build thread,

and the original thread when he started thinking about converting it.

Spoken like a man that's scared to live his life a 1/4 mile at a time,
although to be fair you do have to bhp of milk float in that thing, so it's probably pointless rolling up to the line next to me anyway.
I wonder if we can blag Scrooge to take his company car up the strip,
i'd love to have a 1/4 mile race against a Fiesta ST, they're meant to be very similar performance to a remapped Clio.
How the f*ck did I miss this?
I'll be there I f*cking love handing people their arses!
So what's the deal is CS there both days, what days are people racing?
Just put £20 in and it gave me just under half a tank from empty,
haven't had that happen since I first bought the car over 7 years ago,
£1.11.9 for Super at my local Sainsbury's.
Don't bother with an ITG it's just extra money for no extra gains, I found them no better than a new paper filter,
I had a Pipercross when I had a standard airbox.
You'll have to take the fuel rail guard off to make sure as it's only the lower one that's stamped,
but i'd say you more than likely have them.
This is what you're looking for if you're not sure, those two bolts underneath are what the fuel rail guard bolts to.
It doesn't have to be mapped again, seeing as you've got a 172 cup you'll have the RS stamped inlets which were a better casting than the normal ones
so the gains will be minimal if any, I had my RS stamped inlets done by Jamsport and other than being £170 quid lighter,
I didn't notice any...
One, owned it for the last 7 years, it's generally reliable, modified enough to make it reasonably quick for a daily,
in my mind there's no point in getting rid of it because i'd only want another one,
so I might as well stick with this one and keep it maintained and serviced.
The reason people...
