ahh right yeah, the ph1 was just a toy had the dci100 and then GT DCi106 at the same time as it as my daily, couldn't be bothered with the hastle of 2 cars now lol

depends what you consider an upgrade and a downgrade though, imo the only time I downgraded was when I went from the 200 to the twingo GT as I had to due to it being such a shed and I had 3k neg equity due to the short time I had it so I had to take a 12 month loan for the 3k neg and the 4k for...

yeah soon to be 172 injectors, fastchip stage 2 etc etc before probably selling it to buy something else lol I get easily bored one is quite enough though haha! everyone keeps telling me this, not sure what it is, I just hate change lol yeah I like to see stuff like this too, get yourself a...

did you say you rev match on the way up the box? there is a massive difference in the speed you can shift in a 197/200 gearbox compaired to the gearbox on a 1.2 tce that's why!

jesus no that would not be a good idea lol!!!

extra torque always makes things feel quicker though!

had a day off today so was sorting through all my old pictures and organising them a bit better (as you do on a s**t rainy day off!) and realised I think I have a bit of a problem. it began in 2004 at 16 and a half years old when I bought a standard 1.2 16v clio, it later ended up like...

there was a guy around this way back in 2005 when I had my first 172 had a standard looking vts, slightly lower with a set of R888's or something similar on it, straight line I was just creeping closer to him but round the bends in my at that time standard 172 running factory conti tyres he was...

I find your best to keep going till 5k if your really going for it as you get the overboost at 4.5k but when just making quick progress 3500-4000rpm is more than enough!

that's the benefit of a turbo car though ive never got mine above 5000rpm!

thought you didn't want to blow it up? lol

ah not the dreaded ktec then! seems a bit low power for rstuning?

130bhp standard injectors? ohh god I think ive guessed!!

who mapped it?

^ 130bhp, you will get another 20bhp out that before you need to worry about a bigger turbo ;)

still no one bought one of these yet? lol

actually it is, in my experience its only once you get up near triple figures the Clio starts to pull away in any significant way, under that your just creeping away!

holy s**t mind that!! that was years ago!

bloddy clio 200 flat spots!! (lol thinking of the last thread I accused someone of cutting me up!!!)

im only cumin if its a fast driving meet, pics and talking about waxing is boring, flat out with go-pro's on!

I was going to take the twingo until someone reversed into it at work :(

the dci 88 eco models have the shift light on them it comes on and tells you when to shift for economy. dci106 doesn't have it

never thought about that actually!

I think ph2 172 wheels are the coolest wheels Renault ever made! always liked them, and I bet they will look brilliant on the trophy! I also like the mk1 wheels looks very fresh!

this was my old one when I was 17!! full stripped out with a custom airbox I made and I made an HKS panel filter for it lol!!! had 140k on the clock and was RR at 83bhp!

goes as MWright said above. To change just remove the top damper nut and jack the car up until the damper comes through the bottom of the body, change the under side bush it just slides on the same way the standard one is removed, and then lower the car and fit the top bush again the same way...

ill be there in my Gheydini and my mate is coming in my old Flamer 172

remap 100% worth it!

mechanics courses generally isn't where your going to learn about increasing the performance of a car! DCI clios sound terrible with open filters on them, I tried one on my mapped dci 100 out of curiosity and it sounded rubbish, every time I lifted off the throttle it made a deep tractor like...

if I was going down the K03 route id just run around the 160-170bhp mark with a good oil cooler, good quality fluids and get someone who knows what they are doing to map it, I don't know for definite but the rods are fine at 150bhp, id take my chances at 170 and see how it goes! gearbox might...
