    2.5k to spend

    ive owned a 1.2 16v, DCi65, DCi 100 currently have a 1.6 16v and 172. 1.2 16vs are terrible on fuel, horribly slow to drive DCi65 is a much better alterniative, just as slow but never feels it due to a nice low down punch (think of how a 1.2 shifts with 5.5k gearchanges, thats what a dci is...

    182 manifold on 172 cup.

    Clio 1.5dci 100 engine mods???

    only stuff that was done to mine was pannel filter and a decent remap. had i kept it i would have removed the EGR valve and decatted it and fitted a larger intercooler, thats about all, however the clutch is only good for 185-190lbft and will start to slip, black diamond now do uprated ones...

    Clio DCI's?

    yeah gt 106, i usually just take it pretty easy but went for it lastnight because it was quiet just to see what it would top out at and was going for it for a good few minutes, a google search does confirm of a load of diesels doing this any time people are sitting flat out for a few minutes...

    Clio DCI's?

    bit off topic, but my post above about the carbon build up burning off, you had much dealings with it? ive googled it but its mostly high millage cars that are suffering from it, however ive never had it flat out for such a long time as i did lastnight, but funny enough that weird lag problem...
