    I have the opertunity to buy, very cheap a centre section fo my exhaust on a mk1 1.2, 95 clio. But when looking at the existing system the standared pipe is a straight through one, it doenst have an expansion chambe, so will i get any benefit from this centre section?

    viper feed on or off

    Basically the viper give more power because it is a sealed unit, preventing much hot air getting inot it, unfortunatly on small engines this does not make any noise. If you want noise you will need to get an open induction kit, unfortuanly thos will get rid of any power gains wiht teh Viper, if...

    wheels right or wrong

    Hummm If you ordered them for you car ring up and moan. It is definatly ET42, the haynes manual says so. If you asked for them for a clio mk1 then they should replace them wiht suitable ones

    wheels right or wrong

    im sure the clio 1 is ET42, this means the wheel at ET37 will stick out 5mm more, unfortuantly this is bad news, had it been the other way around then you could have simply put spacers on it, you might bo ok, depends how much its lowered, the only probs you might get is it rubbing on the inside...

    If its an enclosed one you will get less of a roar than an open one, but more power gains than an open one

    Are my Pads or Disk on their way out

    It will still slow you down as the other 3 wheels are braking, but there is only about 85-90% total braking power being used, so if you have to suddenly stop then it is gonna take longer, i would gte it fixed. Gavquiet - as its only done 8000 miles i presume its still under warrenty?

    K & N

    i would say you will nead atleast 2 50mm cold air feeds to it, 3 or 4 is better, just pipe cold air from a suitable location, front grill, fog lights, you could cut the centre bottem bit of the bumper out mesh it and run em all from there, but the prob is the K&N sits above the engine so it...

    K & N

    If you have a mk1 its piss easy, undo the bolts holding the current one on, remove the hoses going to it, connect the breather hose to the K&N (about a 12mm pipe), and put teh K&N onto the throttle houseing (where the old one was), and tighten the jubilee clip, then just pise loads and loads of...
