    1.6 rxe turbo conversion

    Noone real done one you cna get a superchrager kit on the continent from a German compnay but its £5k for the parts alone. Its not easy though a magazine in Italy or turkey did a turbo 1.4 or 1.6 16V to 200hp and it kept going wrong so much so that the owner gave up and bought a 172 instead in...

    body kits

    I quite like the Renault one have a look in your dealership for prices and what it looks like its about £400 i think but depends on which kit you get. But it definatly needs lowering they look so high of the ground with the body kit and standard road height.

    Clio Dci's Tuning

    Mr hoot tunning boxes are very good I've heard no negative comment and there the cheapest around. A sports exhaust will make a bit more noise no smoke and no hp. You will only get a smokey exhaust if your cars overfuleing and unless you've got a stuipidly overpoweing tunning box or custom remap...

    172 standard power increase?

    Depends what you define as braking the bansk. IK a big exhaust and decat are the cheapest then say manifold work and remap and you should be about 185hp maybe a bit more.

    alloys that fit on a clio

    Nope they won't fit Ford use a 108 PCD CLio's use a 100 so the bolts are 8mm further apart on a Ford. Very few cars have a the right sized holes for Clio wheels those that do usually have smaler center bores than the 60.1mm the Clio has.

    Rolling road formula for BHP from ATW reading?

    I'd go by the metod of ading 10hp for the wheel and then times by 1.1 to get flywheel. However setting up on the rollers can affect the readings. 172's seem to make about 140 at the wheel and should be 166 at the fly.

    Lowering my 182 60mm

    They can only refuse warenty work if they can prove the modification is responsible and most dealers cannot or dont want the publicity with refusing claims. Mine went in for work when it had coilovers with no issues. Springs alone wont get you down 60mm though 40 is about the best I think...

    MK2 CLIO ADVICE

    67k isnt a huge milage after all the 2.0 is a big enine in a small car so not as stressed as much as says a 520 BWM. My little dci is more higly stressed probably and Im not gentle and its been fine for 48k. Just remember the 72k service is expensive £500 from none Renault garages and probably...

    172 brakes squeeling

    Brake fluid 172

    Just normal fluid. Dot 4 or 4.1 is fine just make sure you bleed the brakes properly as that makes a big difference. Dont use 5.1 though as it goes off quickly. Halfords cheap dot 4 is £6 for a liter or some brand name super 4 is £10. You should only need a liter for a CLio but err Ive...

    Quickest cars on forum

    Mines done 14.7 at 97 so as fast terminals as Chris and Nics. I dont understand why its so much quicker to that speed though I guess mine must just be slow off the mark. Now where can I get a new bottom end from.
