Prefer standard one myself

Thanks for the link:D

Nice spec Personal preference when it comes to cup/full fat versions

Okay Where is his own place then...worth a trip to get car done?

Think you may have to remove the rear bumper to get the exhaust off too.

Good point. I ran a Blitz filter on my old car (steel mesh cone) without any problems though but I suppose I couldn't see any damage that might have been occuring inside the engine due to particles getting through.

Heard a lot about Chipwizards being good Where is he based and does he travel to do mapping?

Went with a green one in the end as a lot of people I know run them on high performance cars with good results. Think a K&N would be just as good along with the ITG. I've also heard talk of the stainless mesh ones not being great at filtering small particles out of the air.

2002 Mk2 172 just coming up to 15000 Definately need to get out more in it!

Good old Renault dealers eh:(

Impressive stuff 2 grand on insurance is bloody steep though...car certainly must be something if your willing to pay that:D

Would cost a lot of money to get over 500 from the Subarus EJ20 engine.....that's one of it's flaws compared to the evo. Will need FMIC for starters, different turbo & injectors a decent ecu and most expensive of all a much stronger bottom end. In saying that though people are doing some...

Welcome to the forum and enjoy the car:D

Glad your okay....sounds like you had a lucky escape. I must remember to buy a fire extinguisher now!

I always wave at other Renaultsport owners and always get a wave back which is good:D

Sounds good Matt VF34 IIRC is used ain a lot of Subarus....quite a good unit. Did you look at the VF22....that will give even more power.

Welcome to the forum That is very low mileage for the reg car so the price isn't too bad

I think your right when you say about personal experiences. I'm sure sometimes the welder comes into work a bit half cut and knocks out a few bad systems hence some fitting badly. Just been out in my 172 with Stealth fitted and it just sounds better and better plus it hasn't fallen off yet...

Definately essential to install new tensioners with the cambelt

Mmmmm...2k is a bit pricey..think I'll give that a miss.

Nice one....I suppose good things can come out of mistakes. I would like to fit a splitter but am a bit concered about drilling holes in the bumper.

Councils seem to spend a lot of money on pointless s**t like flowerpots and benches etc rather than keeping roads/streets in order. I would definately get a pic and give it a go...you have nothing to loose.

K-tec do a carbon splitter for £100....looks very nice and I have contemplated buying one but at the end of the day I'd probably just do what Eddie has done after fitting it!

From Renault being the catch. I did notice that the splitter is being sold in Leeds....you could ask if he'd do postage as it probably wouldn't be that much.

Oh the sound of a turbo spooling up.....just lovely:D

£160....that is a lot of money for a rubber strip.

What a pain...small mistakes like that are always really annoying but i happens to us all. Not sure in the price of the splitter from renault but I did see one for sale in the sale section on here.....think it was going for around 80 notes.

If I was going to spend that kind of money I'd hope the workmanship had some kind of guarantee.

Personally I don't know what Renault are up to...it looks like the Clio is going to become very close in the marketplace to the Megane with the size increase (and probably price too).

Admiral are good...was with them for years before switching to Norwich Union. Only problem with Admiral is if you get points....the premium really does go up, they wanted around £200 extra when I got an SP30!
