    A quick 172 driveshaft ?

    Depends which side. Passengers side side drivesfaft seal is part of the gearbox seal so if you undo the three bolts holding it in all the gearbox oil leaks out. Drivers side is help in place by a driveshaft pin so just knock the pin out and the shaft come out without any problem.

    turbo for clio 172 phase 2?

    £6k or so for a proper turbo setup and about270hp. However the engine and gearbox arn't the best starting points better dropping a VAG 1.8T engine in with 6 speed box for about £8k then you've got a stronger engine and box and cheaper tunning route.

    Tracking in Midlands

    You can do tracking on any. They just need the setup which goes on the outside of the wheels. My Clio was on Coilover and low and it never was a problem. The stuff which uses the outside of the wheel is the cheapest stuff so any backstreet garage can do it.
