Scratch that I've found the thread. I'll be in touch ;)

Can you PM me price and pics please? Or if email is easier I can PM you that.

For a genuinely quick car yes it's much cheaper. No denying that. My Fiesta with n/a zetec and a short gearbox felt fast enough with 814kg including me as driver and a full tank of fuel and the interior. That was 195bhp and 150lbft. With the Clio the same figures won't feel very quick, it's got...

Boost is very hard to compete with. It costs though

It's louder than a standard cat obviously but not as loud as a straight through decat. Quite a nice sound but it depends what exhaust you're running. I find on youtube people usually have a straight through decat and no centre box. I've got a Ktec system with centre box and back box so its...

Yes they can, I'm seeing what their best price is :)

Cheapest isn't always the worst ;) . I've been looking at Ktec, Jamsport etc. and there's a good looking manifold on ebay but again that's Ph2. I'm in talks with the guy who ports heads for me at the moment. The ones on here are always Ph2 inlets, no good for me. And I don't want to buy a lower...

I'll come and watch when you do Oulton if you're there.

Where is the cheapest place to do this? Before anyones says do it yourself the answer is NO! :rasp:

North Wales

Not sure, I've got an RS tuner unlocked now and I was going to get a custom map from Fastchip. They would probably run fine on a generic remap though. There are no tuners around here to do a custom map so a remote one is the only option. As for checking its running ok there are a couple of good...

No the 182 decat is quite different. I'll have a silenced Ktec decat for sale tomorrow. I'm after £80 http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=1564

I'm looking at getting a spare gearbox to rebuild for my Ph1 and want to fit a shorter final drive. A 4.21 would do nicely and you can get these in the JB1 as well as a 4.5 final. Could the crownwheel and pinion be fitted to a ph1 or cup box?

No I sent them in the end of last week so I'll fit them as soon as I get them back as the dephaser needs changing. clio_dude gave them some good feedback so I'll give them a go :) Have a search on here for Piper vs 428 . Apart from being noisy they were good but it sounds like this shim kit...

Can the Ph1 ABS system be fitted to a 172 Cup?

Anyone got a 98ron .cal file for Ph1? :) Its for the A300 software so something like A300_35FF.cal 98 ron is required

Yes. They come with a shim kit now though to go under the lifters. This resolves issues they had previously being a bit noisy. I've run regrinds on two cars previously too with no issue :)

I've managed to get a Ktec recessed exhaust for a decent price but I'll need to chop the bumper. Are there any templates for doing this cutout available?

I've gone for the Pipers as they give good gains for the money compared with some of the others but I know a few guys are happy with the 421/438 Catcams which are a bit more aggressive that the 428 Catcams. A few of the traders on here do them along with a remap to suit.

That's on the standard 15x7 F1 with standard ride height and spacers (15mm front, 5mm rear)

Take a big dump before having a drive. That'll make more difference!

I've got used working one

Wow! They saw you coming if you paid that much for tracking and two tyres in that size. With that width of rim you want a 195 width tyre. You can get Uniroyal rainsport 2 for £33 per tyre in 195/50-R15 As above the 16" will look better, you could keep an eye out for a set of 172 cup alloys...

Brilliant! Look forward to that. I need to renew my tie rods and rack bushes so I've thought why not do the DCi rack. I'll be fititng the 182 manifold soon with the subframe dropped so it's an ideal opportunity to get it done. Would there be any issue with fitting the rack to the existing...

Enjoying my 205 RSR :) they feel really good and sit nicely on the rim. I've got a couple of photos to upload later.

Mild (uprated inlet cam and standard exhaust cam): Catcams 428 £600, Prima INR £300, GT £400-500. Or you could pick up a used set of Clio 197 cams for £100-150. Bit more aggressive are the Piper BP270, these are reprofiled standard cams with shims. £360 Then Catcams 421, 438 £500, C&B, ED £500...

Well if you want Catcams 428 then Prima racing do the same profile for £295 inc vat They are called INR F4R I think

Despite the longer duration of the C&B the Catcams make more lift at TDC. I'd be inclined to use them

I bought a set of Matt Lewis motorsport/moquip/aeroquip braided lines and took them to my friendly neighbourhood garage to fit along with my ATE blue fluid. However the lines weren't suitable, apparently the flared end is incorrect. They'll do them at a later date with new pipes. Anyone...

Don't powder coat. It'll flake off
