Ive got a turbo from an old modified GSXR-1100, I wonder what would happen if I fitted it to the clio?! Probably a load of trouble....but you never know.Can anyone recommend a specific air filter? K&N/PiperX etc? What kind of power boost...
Best mods are a load of miles an airfilter of some sort and a fll manifold back exhaust system.
As for the door locking stick the key in and turn to position 2 them press the door locking button for a few second I think and youll hear a beap indicating its changed from working to not working.
I have to say the 182 I drove yesterday suprised me from what Im used to and I can see where your comming from.
I think the big issue is the weight at the front, my dci must be 100kg or so lighter and it realy make an impact.
Im not sure what can be done maybe ligthening it will help remove...

when will everyone be in dover????
Hopefully 7am (Least i think its 7am) for the ferry.
However there a few people staying over at the travellodge up the road.
I get 55mpg on adverage. However Ive seen 80mpg when being very slow and gentle.
Worse Ive ever seen on the public road is 37mpg.
On the track 28mpg.
All these milages are a after 30 or so miles.
Mines a 65dci. The 80 has a longer ratio box which might hlp get better mpg it depends how you...
You can get the speed pulse indicator from the standard steroe wiring. Im not sure about the reverse but Ill have a look for what wire you can use if you want. Easiest just to ignore it and not tell the car its ever going backwards.
Good spec there what injecotors are you running they must be maxed out runing at that big a window.
How difficult was the engine to install and what ECU are you running?
That -20 your running is fine upto 27psi without any issues if your feeing like maxing out.
I take it thers no space...
Lower it as far as you can on coilover.
The stock alloys look quite nice IMO plus insurance companies dont charge you extra.
The 172 cup ones do look good though but anthing more tha 16 is more show than go usually IMO.

does anyone know how true this really is? Is this just one of those ideas that never gets launched or does it look likely to go ahead?If it is going ahead, it kinda pisses me off buying a car & new versions are out every 6 months!!

Must have been the sat nav then that I saw.
It should be covered under warently depend hw its failed if it looks like youve ben tampering and they want some bad PR then they will refuse it.
Its only cheap though the part I think.
£9999k for a new one pre registered import with nothing. (it was a one off though)
£11k for a 182 Cup (UK spec from a dealer)
£11.7k for a 182 with nothing Uk spec dealership car.
£12k for a 182 with Cup bits.
A big powerful diesel (very light) engine and 7 speed box geared to make full use of the power.
Coilovers as standard
Wider track
Lower C of G
Sleeper looks
For the next Clio Id be happy with a 200hp+ tunned Dci but it just wont happen looks like Ill have to do it myslef.
No central...
Best ring your insurance compnay HIC (Adrian Fluxs insurer) let you insure the second car using your NCB twice as such.

All the exclusives are green there might be one or two late registered exclusives which got regitered after the Mk2 2 Clio was released.
Thats very low milage (somehting Im not to keen on anyway) but Id be worried why there calling it an exclusive when its clearly not maybe its been resprayed...
Shudder sound like axle tram not much you can do, the engines so big and powerful putting power down can be difficult so the wheeels jump a bit.
Have the gear stick/gear box etc mounts check for tightness it shouldnt jusmp out of gear if its correctly adjusted.

Problem: When locking the vehicle the alarm beeps 2 or 3 times.
Reason: The alarm system has received a signal from the vehicle ECU that the ignition is on causing the alarm to beep. This signal is only received by the alarm for 3 to 4 seconds, after this time has elapsed the alarm stops...
How about a yr or 2 yr old 172? I would save you a fair bit.
Get a personal load to pay for a 172 and use the £6k cash you have to finish with the Megan.
The exclusive was a special model for the last of the Mk1 172s it had green paint different wheels and different seat leather I think. There worth as much extra as people will pay which isnt a goo enswer but some people pay £1k extra for one personally Id say there worth £300 extra but there...
Your best trying a few local dealers one them them is very likly to drop the price to that sort of level if theyve had poor sales or need a few more to get there big bonus.
