    how hard to u push ur 1.2

    depends what mood im in, if im just driving normally then usually change about 3,500rpm, dont take it over 3,000rpm for the first 15 mins if im on the dual c/way then usually about 5,000rpm if im really going for it if someones up my arse or on a backroad then its usually 6,200, which is...

    1.2 16v 0-80mph video

    tell me how this is a different kettle of fish when it comes to modifiing them then, you still get crap gains when it comes to BHB per £ and cheers to all the guys (seems to be the non RS owners!) who actually have something decent to say and who are sticking up for me!!

    1.2 16v 0-80mph video

    im on a tight budget and to be honest a clio is bad enough after 100mph i dont think its strong enough to hold up at the speed of light

    1.2 16v 0-80mph video

    to be honest neather does a RR unless its a before and after on the same RR with same air temp etc as im sure you know. i was bored thought id make a video, video didnt turn out as great as i thought but i thought id post it anyway.

    1.2 16v 0-80mph video

    i think you must be getting confused its not a superduper megaflow its a super megaflow, im assuming you dont know what it is since your having a laugh at it? i cant see what benefit having a flux capacitor on a car would have performance wise?

    1.2 16v 0-80mph video

    i cant see how its a different kettle of fish? why spend thousands on a 180bhp car to get it to not much over 200bhp when spend that on somthing that was designed to be fast such as an evo and you get a massive power boost? its the same idea as why i mod a 1.2 because the car was cheap, its...

    yep, HKS Super megaflow replacement element, £21 all the airbox work was done by myself and a mate as a wee project

    1.2 16v 0-80mph video

    look at it this way, i cant afford to buy or insure a faster car, ive spent £21 on giving it a noticeable power increase, sounds a bit better and is a lot better to drive. what about all these guys that spend £ on making a 172/182 faster is that wasted? why not buy a turbo car and get massive...

    1.2 16v 0-80mph video

    right basically, my car has minor performance mods, in total its cost me £21 on engine mods, now when i had first got my car i couldnt find any speedo vids, now i thought this would be a good idea for anyone else whos just got a 1.2 whos thinking of modding it to compair it to there car

    1.2 16v 0-80mph video

    its nothing to do with the invisible speedo, you can clearly see the speedo pulling to 70mph and then me coming off the throttle at 80mph to see how fast (or how slow) it gets there, but also lets you hear the noise from my modded airbox (not lots of little holes drilled sucking in hot air...

    My New Clio

    coming a long nicely, gear knob and pedals are nice, although i prefer the more standard look inside, but still good work! to be honest id only lower your car 60mm or more, anything less and it doesnt look much lower unless you park beside another clio and even at that its not a great deal...

    1.2 16v 0-80mph video

    road noise is a bit louder, exhaust sounds brilliant even although its standard you hear it popping when you take your foot off the accelerator. and why cant you understand doing it to a 1.2? 1.2 has less torque than a 172 so stripping it makes a bigger difference the best way to make a 1.2...

    1.2 16v 0-80mph video

    quick video i done of the clio 0-80mph, it hits the limiter in 2nd at 55 mph to give you a rough 0-60 time (i counted about 10 seconds?) since you cant see the speedo for the sun! only mods are a custom made HKS pannel filter and the airbox has been modified for performance and also has a...

    slotting a 1.6 16v into an rt

    cant see anyone having done it before so seems like it could be a cool project, slight mods and it would be rapid, my 1.2 does 0-60 in 10 seconds with a video to prove and thats only with a modified airbox and panel filter!

    NOZ in 1.2 16v

    jon with the 172 conversion had a 50bhp shot on his 1.2 16v said it was fukin rapid untill it blew a piston thru the block. to be honest your talking about £800 to have it supplyed and fitted, if you look about you can buy a 172 engine for that, and if your handy and can fit it yourself then...
