    does tubing effect induction

    Yep if your talking about surface finish. A smoother surface should allow for better flow rates ie more air but having more tumble ie rougt surface may mean better mixing of the fuel and air so more efficient burning. If your talking about material then yes if the material radiates heat ie...

    f**king reno again!!!

    This IS Renault your talking about. No insult to some of the Renault employes on here. But Renault do emplyee more of there fair share of morons no one going to sue them for discriminating against morons are they. Can you not ask for a courtesy car/ a test drive of somehting more powerful?

    172 buying advice.....

    No such thing as a stupid question if you didnt know the answer. To tell if it has an alarm loook on the front windscreen pillars if there are little ultrasonic detecters then its got an alarm (there about 2cm long and round on little brackets). If its an import then it may have some other...

    Renault Accident Management Scheme

    Sounds like it maybe illegal as its an unfair advantage onother bodywork places. If you have protected unlimted no claims for life my dad you could have free servicing for life. Sounds like a good idea but since some dealership are so bad, they need to fix dent etc they have put on customers...

    worth nos’in

    Engine should be fine with 25hp with 50 you may need to have the timing adjusted. Your better of dropping a bigger ening in there IMO. The 16V 1.8 can be dropped in for ~£1500 all in I belive from some Renault tunning companies (BB me thinks)

    Cup insurance!

    DOnt worry as long as he is insured to drive the car then if he crashed you or any 3rd party is able to cliam its the law. Its the cost of repairs to his car that is under question. The insurer may chase them for the money they had to pay out on the policy which was invalid. I know what you...

    i need a new radiator fan!!

    Sorry Im tired I meant bumper. The picture of the Mk2 1 Clio is the normal picture in the Renault dialogies its for a Mk2 2 though. I wasnt sure if you needed to take the bumper off but I did see something in the dialoges about it but it may only apply for bigger engined Clios as there is less...

    Rotor brake discs

    nope you only have the same area touching the pads so same braking. With the holes in it though braking maybe reduced. Athough if its made of beter material it may reduce this loss However as the disk is bigger it may stay cooler so in hard braking fade will be reduced.

    ok. lots of mods, shud insure but who

    Liverpool victoria are good with mods. They dont charge you for anything except change in engine CC. They even replace modified parts in the even of a crash (well my mates was)

    Proven 20bhp Increase

    The ebay resister mods. These mods SHOULD NOT be used on a petrol car. They connect to the temperature sensor, which is used to measure the air fuel mixture. The mod fools the ECU into thinking its very hot and since fuel is less dense more should be injected during the normal cycle. Since its...

    Re-mapped ECU, what do u make of this

    Nope. If there were this sort of extra power remapers would have found it. Sounds like they may have had some poor quality tyres or maybe there were bashed about a bit to much by journalists and a few bits got bent messing up the handling. 5.5 to 60 in a FWD car is a majour achivment even...

    Thinking about changing my motor...

    I think youll get about £6.5 maybe 7 for a private trade unfortunatly you can buy them new on discoutn deals quite cheap I think 9k rings a bell and and people will pay for a enw one. You could sell the wheels, lights, springs, cd changer and spolier for more than youll be able to seel them...

    The hayney manual is out for the last generalion Clios ie the ones with the round lights which is almost the same as the triangle shape lights ones.

    Aftermarket Exhaust, Warrenty Issue.

    Well under EU law any moddified part or affected part due to the mods which can be proved by them to be the reason for the need for warentyl work is invalid. I know that doesnt make sence but if you put 80 mm lowering springs on the car and need electric warently work them they canot refuse it...
