    I emailed milltek and gave them the production number and after a while they said the batch in question was ok so "it should be happy driving" :) let's hope I'm one of the lucky ones

    Uprated clutch-182

    After some research I decided to go for the helix organic clutch kit. The only place I could find this kit so far is yozzasport, but I am still waiting for replies to some mails I've sent regarding payment. It's more complicated for me to order since I'm not from the UK. How about the gr. N...

    Rear shock on 182 FF

    get a coilover set, or renault standard shocks with some eibach springs, this would also improve the handling and it will be less pricey

    16" alloy V 15" steel weights - figures.

    I read somewhere that the 182 alloys are about 9 kilos. so only 3 kg's a partly worn tyre? I will get mine weighted as well

    powerflex bushes- components

    these are the poly bush set for the lower arms. one of the outer sleeves came out recently and it's obvious that it suffered some damage(maybe the arm suffered to I don't know). I want to make a custom replacement sleeve, although powerflex said they will send me replacements, I need the car...

    Matched inlet

    is there some description on how the matched inlets are made? I don't think anybody does this job in my country, so maybe a detailled description of the process will help me find someone who could carry this operation for me

    Milltek exhausts?

    I fitted my milltek 5 days ago and if the back weld problem won't occur (as some guys related) i will be very pleased with it as it sounds just the way I want it to and looks ace too. yozza exhaust maybe too loud for everyday driving, although I'd try one for a quick blast :)

    Milltek Warning

    there wasa guy saying he had a milltek for 2 years with no problem at all, maybe some other guys like him will post a pic to see if there is a difference between a good weld and a bad one. Although my guess is that some exhausts had worn mounts or the stress on the welds in case was bigger than...

    Milltek

    fitted mine one hour ago :) the cat is still there, no air intake or other mods it sounds really nice, not raspy, and untill 4000 rpm it has a low note, which I like, above 4000 it becomes more metallic, overall I think this is what you want..

    Funniest Thing You Have Been Told By A Dealer...

    the day I saw my 182 for the first time at the dealer: asked the guy there to turn on the engine to have a listen.. him: (revving the engine) hear that? it's the turbo charger I remained quiet :))

    air induction GOOD or BAD?

    the idea was for people to post accurate data regarding performance gains or losses, not just "i've heard this, I think that" stuff.

    air induction GOOD or BAD?

    I am curious though if someone did actually gain something with a ik mounted on a stock clio. if not I will go for panel filter then exhaust+remap+IK

    air induction GOOD or BAD?

    maybe it's harder to install properly on the clio, and easier on other cars. the space is limited for a proper caf fitment, maybe that's why it doesn't work so well on the clio's

    air induction GOOD or BAD?

    I spent about 4 hours couple of days ago reading posts regarding IK's and still not sure about them. I know maxogens have the best reputation, but they are pricey and to pay 400 on engine sound mainly is too much sometimes. What I want is to clarify the benefits of the best ik's available...
