yeah, a wee clio expression. i done full exhaust system, home made decat, tried a few different filters and airbox setups, ended up using a modified renault airbox with home made HKS filter, was all a great laugh and made the difference!

i spent a fair bit tunning my 1.2, i could have saved it for my 172 but i didnt and dont regret it, was fun having a 1.2 that was 1.6 fast!

only worth while for turbo cars that have the torque to pull through the ratios

yeah thats correct. i was thinking you had a 172 for some reason! they dont need to come off just look at the dampers under the bump stops you will usually see they are covered in oil with loads of s**t stuck to the oil, or if they have been gone a while you will likely see the remains of where...

agreed!

actually its been a while cant remember if these are single cam engines or twin cam with just one cam pulley?

you have a spare set of camS? are you building 2 of them? its a single cam engine

extremely uneconomical for what it is compaired to a quicker dci 100, i know what id be buying!

i find it strange that go back to 2005 when all the ph1s started getting belt changes no one was changing these or suffering any failures (or atleast we wern't hearing of it), now on 182's people are changing them all the time? is this down to the physical dephasers being of worse quality on...

yeah rattle cans, came out mint too! would be happy if i had paid a bodyshop and got that finish! sorry never updated it, got coolant months ago! was all parts in bonybridge they have loads of clios

mine gets messy when i total it all up, never counted it all fully but heres a quick one for the last 6yrs... 1.2 16v £1500 ph2 172 £7800 DCi65 £1800 DCi 100 £3800 ph1 172 £2500 GT DCi £14700 total on clios £ £32,100 thats just the cost of buying, id say ive spent at a guess £10k on mods and...

any 172 preferably a ph1, 182s are a nightmare exhausts never sit properly lol ph1 172s are fast.

when was the last time it had an air filter change/clean?

best setup for the cars from a handling point of view is koni adjustables and eibach sportlines. they cost about the same if not more than cheap coilovers but ive never tried cheap coilovers cant imagine them being as good from a performance point of view though. i was running sportlines on...

yeah full car, engine out, bay done the lot!

my dci 100 was fine cornering at tripple figures in the wet with T1-R's lol

my black 80k W plate has it, quite bad! going in to get a respray soon though mine have got really bad in a short time.

mine was still going strong at 150 odd so you have loads left!

RIP, sad to hear. what else is also sad is to look through all the posts and realize everyone was just happy the guy had walked away, no one was arsey, no one told him he got what he deserved for driving too quick, no one making their own judgement on the crash without being there. totally...

isnt the twingo RS wheel the same as a poverty spec Twingo and the same size as a Clio 2? id be going Clio 3 wheel

i used to really rate t1-rs on my dci 100 and use them on my mrs 1.6 16v however they wear far far too fast my derv was going thru them in 8k and that was a LOT of motorway miles, i funny enough rated them in the wet unlike most. camskill are doing PE2's for £60 a corner at the moment ive just...

1/4 mile runs not for me, never tried one in it

as ive said before i lost nothing, would still hit the limiter in 5th gear, and i gained a nice mid range. im on the look out for another for my ph1!

dyno graphs dont mean s**t, my opinion since i had one does highest powered sottish 2.0 clio on standard inlet!! that was on standard cams and map too!!

no joke ive saw 4 bug eye STi imprezas on fire in the last 3 years

ive just got my dci back from the dealers after it lit up the motorway with sparks from the exhaust like a firework!

ive owned a 1.2 16v, DCi65, DCi 100 currently have a 1.6 16v and 172. 1.2 16vs are terrible on fuel, horribly slow to drive DCi65 is a much better alterniative, just as slow but never feels it due to a nice low down punch (think of how a 1.2 shifts with 5.5k gearchanges, thats what a dci is...

tape will be fine if its sealed its hardly sucking 21psi through it!

got to disagree i got a nice gain on mine, granted the decat possibly done that but 15lb/ft mid range and 10lb/ft peak torque. never dropped anything top end either as you would usually expect with a 4-2-1. ive always told people its a decent gain, hard going to change it but worth it if you...
