theirs plenty going about over 100k that are reliable. thing is, the engine will outlive the car no problem, engines are bullet proof when serviced. the cars are generally Very reliable IF they are driven properly. take it down a backroad daily for 100,000 miles and drive it hard and it...

ive not got the mild steel system your talking about but ive got the 2.5" stainless system and ive ran it with and without a cat. with a cat you pretty much cant hear it around town, motorway its very quiet, not much louder than standard when your up to speed. without a cat its not too bad...

looking at about £1500 for everything needed, Matt does conversion kits with everything needed. most places would charge around £1500ish for labour so your looking at £3000 to do it. only way i would do it is if like me you could do it yourself and save labour then its a cheap power gain!

no one does uprated clutches for them you need to get a custom one made.

ive got a dci65 (not a van but the same really!) its on 150k miles, drives like brand new, as far as i can see its still on the factory clutch, gearbox has just gone with no signs of warning but these things happen as long as its had regular oil changes it will be fine! yep belt need done but...

this comment made me laugh

my standard 172 made 172.9bhp at the fly :)

i find it usefull for hard launches for limiting wheelspin, on a hard launch it doesnt seem to cut power in any way that slows you down just enough to get the power down. rarely switch it off on the road to be honest unless im properly driving hard!

you have a rear wheel drive clio. nice

then its not a RWD issue its a car issue, cars slide on ice.

yeah that would have been me u got the silver dynamique with anthracite 172 wheels by any chance? if so your exhaust sounded nice! not sure on the ibiza mate sits in the retail park in stirling most nights ive been there

250 odd miles in the 172 add a 0 onto the end of that for the dci lol

if i wasnt buying a 182 with cup packs id just get a 172, non cup pack 182 isnt worth the cash unless you get a bargain

pmsl you taking the piss? wait till uve drove a REAL turbo car ;)

im running one with a 182 manifold and a k-tec stealth. i got big gains although i fitted it with a 182 manifold at the same time it runs fine, idles s**t as they all do as standard even with a cat lol no flat spots sounds much better, a bit louder. usual petrol smell when your in...

it passed me lastnight at about 135mph with a diesel ibiza glued to its ring black one been cutting about with apparently over 400lb.ft of torque (the ibiza i mean!) going the other way or i would have joined in

im still using 195 eagle F1s as i always have so its not a tyre width issue with mine, well atleast its never done it before ive never been a fan of the way these cars drive on 16" wheels, my old one on 195/45/15 15" wheels was 10x better!

lol someones never worked on a F4R

its started to get better and better and eventually sorted its self mate which makes me think the odd tyre wear from the few hundred miles before the suspension was set up must have been causing it! strange!

i bought mine for winter mate to save some cash with the intentions of selling it after winter, but now winters over im keeping it, it saves that much cash! check out www.cliodci.net too

no mate ive not sorry :(

people do travel you know ;) Gaz, cheers its an awesome engine made 173bhp when standard at the last RR day!

road was 100% flat thats why i choose it, it hits the limiter if i find 1 with a slight hill haha starts to hit a very small hill at the end (you'll notice the shift light goes off again) lol it does look like i was filming it but its just the way my mates holding the cam but not dareing to...

decent torque figure, that must be the RStuner map at a guess! the 10bhp imo if other cars with same mods were running different mods would possibly be shabby inlets there is big gains to be had from matched inlets on some cars and not so big on others, didnt make too much difference on mine but...

Video of the speedo in my Clio 172 from just over 60mph to an indicated 140mph filmed in germany on the autobahn mods are as follows Clio 182 Exhaust Manifold K-Tec 2.5" Decat K-Tec 2.5" Stealth Exhaust AngelWorks Matched Inlets PTFE Inlet Gaskets cars getting Rolling Roaded a week on Satarday...

sportlines and brand new genuine 172 cup dampers here and im scared to change to H&R's incase i ruin it!! (even though ive been reasured 100 times it will only be better lol)

lol "do you have the correct tools" "yeah mate only need a bottle of tipex"

id ram it in her arse nae bother

im asuming the dci 68 is just the same engine as a dci65, ie no intercooler etc so id expect mid 90's bhp

sorry NX51 YJY
