hahahaa Winston cant belive nobody has snapped that engine up! Buy a cheap rolling shell and stick it in! 8v ROCKS!!!! :D

HAHAA just raided my photobucket account!

On my RSi i had Spax adjustable shocks with -60mm springs.. very stiff, handled like a go-kart though!! the car was semi-stripped out.. I had a magnex system with decat custom Hillpower filter with CAF and the ecu was chipped From a standing start up to about 80mph i would stay dead...

Hillpower is theee place for RSi tuning, Nick knows his stuff about these engines. Ive owned 2 RSi's now and to be honest i would just save your money matey.. you can spend a fair whack on them and get a minimal power gain! with full head work, different cam/pully and a remap youll only see...

Only if you ask the officer nicely :rasp:

Just run some coolent flush through the sytem, take it for a quick drive so the coolent is hot and running around the engine? Drain and refil..

Ive sat in that.. It was at a certain exhaust company having a devleopment system designed ;)

LOL... whats actually happened to your engine? yeh will be easy to work on dude, replce what ever needs it and give it a good clean up

Thats a good price dude, you could strip your old engine or sell it complete, to get some of the fitting expensises back? Would the "pro mechanic" offer any warrenty on his work? that may be the safer option?

Heatwrap isnt cheap dude... and it takes a while to fit it "correctly" but try Demontweeks they sell it

i saw this earilier tonight... looks pretty cool :D

haha when i saw yours the other day it had a huuuge hole ripped through the foil near the air box :rasp:

Nope i havent fitted it yet.. where is this post? haha yeh you can modify your 172 cat to fit ;)

Fooooooooooooooooook! :D

yeah been to Nick's before... Dont wanna pay somebody to do it, i am more than competent myself! Just a b**ch of a job really LOL

Hopefully in the next few weeks fitting the manifold, inlet work and a remap if a certain car tuner gets motivated :dapprove: LOL How did you find fitting yours dude.... ball ache?

manifold and exhaust system are covered under same category so youll be fine Carl.. better to be safe than sorry i would tell them about the remap, unless you carry a "standard mapped" spare ecu in the car LOL

Most insurance companies cover exhuast and manifold under the same modifaction category... so shouldnt cost that much really? i think Bell qouted me an extra £80 but i am sure you could "barter" with them LOL I bet 90% of insurance companies/inspectors wouldnt notice the difference in the...

If it would make you feel better you can share the saving you made compared to the price of mine :rasp: Youve just gotta keep your eye out for them.. i was watching 2 or 3 on ebay before i brought mine they all sold for £150 plus!!

We should have a ClioSport "182 manifold fitting" meet... there is atleast 3 people with them to fit now!

everybody seems to be picking these up cheap now!! Well done dude ;) Now get ready for the barrage of PM's "ill give you £80, £100 for it" LOL

Not hard to do.. haha! have you ever attemted to fit the 182 manifold before?

Matt i would definatly change all your belts while the engine is out... it will save you some serious money come your next service!

Most garages charge around £40ish + to re-gas the aircon.. try some industrial air con places, a place near me does it for £20 cash in hand Coolent will be about £25 ish PAS fluid Possibly brake fluid? then your oil and filter.. so thats over £100 there, with good oil Not quite the...

haha good set-up!! I would just make a link pipe up for myself.. what do you do come MOT time?

Depends how good you are with your spanners and sockets :P are you getting any help, or doing all the work yourself? Personally if it was a mate id charge him the price of a few beers..

I totall argee anything under 3K ish in these cars feels shocking compared to the top end power.... hopefully over the next few weeks that shall be taken care of with remap and inlet work, just not sure weather to fit the de-cat or manifold though? What kind of cat/de-cat set up do you have...

And weve both got PH-1 Clio sports... i think a full comparison test should be done here ;)

I am in the same predictment... Ive got a 172 de-cat and a 182 manifold sat in my garage! Just not sure weather its worth the hassle of fitting the manifold for the "minimal" gains?

Well depends how much lauging gas your gonna run?
