172. I bought it with some piece of s**t induction cone and a blue imitation Samco bend. It was tight, that is what I mean, I didn't bother clamping mine in too much, just sat it in the bay.

Mine pretty much just sat in the engine bay.

They are all the same, you can pay double the price for the same product in a different bottle. Don't waste your money. There are two specifications that you should look for on any oil bottle and these are API (American Petroleum Institute) and ACEA all good oils should contain both of these...

Probably is placebo, but I do like the noise too, glad you are happy with it.

Yes it will, a lot of people remove them. Mine didn't have one.

Basically, the air temperature difference in the engine bay and from air being sucked in from in front of the car is not going to have any affect. The ONLY benefit from having an induction kit is the noise. If you want performance, put the standard airbox on with a ITG panel filter.

Search on here, covered so many times. As long as it is the right grade it will make no difference. All the manufacturers of the oil have to comply with certain things, so what is actually in there that varies between the different makes is hardly anything. That castrol edge stuff is all...

They all do the same thing. Halfords.

Lol @ Golf TDi being Clio pace. These people have obviously never been in one. And I agree with Gally, this is such a s**t thread, can it please be locked, it was obviously not going to go well, I'm surprised it wasn't locked sooner.

Lol @ the price, my mate used to have one, rapido.

Sorry we spoiled it :(

^^ This. In comparison to the extra strain from having to suck air through another half foot of pipe, the temperature makes no difference.

The best setup is the standard one. That CAF will make no difference.

Flol Were there lost children in his arch gaps again?

This. All the advice you need there. If you want to know more, do a search. Has been covered so many times. lockthread/

You shouldn't need performance on a 1.6 sadly - or fortunately, depending which way you look at it.

2nd one.

Anyway . . . I see what you mean about the brakes, it will obviously lose a bit of value if it isn't standard, depends how long you are going to keep it I guess, i.e how much you will have lost anyway by the time you sell it. For the extra bit of $ it will cost though, keeping them standard is...

Well done . . . :S

a) Kriss is a girls name b) I also hate Renault, but I love this forum. c) I f**king hate dogs, we won't get along.

Surely tho Gal, you don't have to replace like for like, what are they 4 pots? You could probably get alternative performance parts ie discs, pads?

I had Eibach's 30m drop, looked fine to me.

Yeah it is so inconspicuous. And like Danny said, so much car for your money. Mine is about 260bhp, supposedly, I suspect it is more like 245bhp when all is said and done. It torques steers like a b**ch, but the understeer isn't too much of a problem, if you know what the limits are and when it...

If you go to Kwik fit you have to factor in replacing at least 2 of your wheels though after they have been damaged by some *****.

@ gally It is like a big sofa, but my bones are so brittle, I went to get my pension from the post office, parked the car up, stepped of the kerb and broke my hip. True story. @Goodj It does handle like a bit of a pram compared to the 172, but it is nice to have a car with some good straight...

Cream and purple alternate corners? DO it you little chav fighting virgin. ;)

No, it's an Aero, but it isn't standard.
