£16k is piss cheap for one of those, the ones that have a race history go for up to £40k, god I hope I win the lottery tonight.

Have you just ordered a back box so it's drivable?

I think you're right when you said stealth systems cause the sound to resonate under the car rather than going out the back, when I bought mine alot of people were going for the recessed Piper which despite being identical isn't half as loud in the car as mine is.

It has the centre silencer but it's not very big and neither is the backbox, it looks like a race bike exhaust.

What do you mean, two exhaust tips?

I love the RS front ends, best looking escort there is imo.

I didn't notice, I only saw the front of it parked in between two cars as I drove past.

What did this bloke say about his stealth system? http://www.cliosport.net/threads/sadly-the-monaco-is-breaking-recaro-seat-cup-spoiler-ect.774912/

The only way you could have what you want is buy the best system you can afford, then cut the tail pipe off and weld a stealth tip on.

In short, the holy grail. lol

I'd take the standard system off the list mate, you'll just be replacing a sh*t system with another sh*t system.

You could just buy a new back box for fifty quid so you can drive it while you're researching decent stainless systems.

If you just need an exhaust what about this? It's a reputable company, i've bought parts off them as have many other members...

Even my exhaust is a hundred quid more expensive than when I bought it, plus no stealth option anymore. http://www.piperexhausts.co.uk/piperstore/product_info.php?cPath=147_159_372&products_id=4802&osCsid=47g8em9uauh5e7lpdj5sbqsc77

I'm glad my piper is indestructible with a lifetime warranty, they're all stupidly expensive these days.

There's this for £300 notes, no idea what it's like as i've only ever had a Piper stealth on mine. http://www.kamracing.co.uk/renault-clio-mk2-rs-172-supersprint-stealth-catback-exhaust-system-kam-racing-exclusive.html

F*CKING NORA!!!! You could buy two stainless exhaust systems for that and still have enough change for night out.

A 98ron remap will raise the idle, most people use RSTuner units.

Bloody hell he's gone up in the world, I used to see him driving about in his 1.2 with Lexus lights, I guess the days of him being envious of me blasting around in the dog kennel are long gone. lol

Here you go have a look in this thread, it contains pretty much every decent cheap mod there is. http://www.cliosport.net/threads/cool-mods-for-skint-people.316226/

Parked up outside the mot garage in Aldermans Green Industrial Estate this morning, I drove past it at 10:45 and again at 12:00, i've seen it around quite a few times over the years, it's always immaculate and has a private plate, must be someone's on here seeing as it's in such good condition.

Is there such a thing as a quiet Yozza? Everyone i've heard was easily twice as loud as my Piper. Tbh mine probably just seems louder than it actually is because I don't have any rear seats or carpets.

I have a Piper stealth 2.5" cat back, it's loud as hell and droney on the motorway, i've been told by quite a few people they can hear me coming from two streets away, but on the plus side it sounds good and is bomb proof in terms of build quality.

Loads mate, reduced drivetrain movement means instant power delivery, loads of people moan about extra vibration but I didn't get any and everything is uprated and polybushed on mine, if you do get any extra vibration it's only at idle.

I was using aftermarket K-Tec/Vibratechnics mounts so they went in easy, it's getting the oem ones out that was a pain in the arse. Are you replacing them with new oem mounts?

The gearbox mount may feel like it's never going to come out but just keep wiggling it it will come out eventually, also when bolting the new gearbox mount in I stuck the nut to my finger with some silicone so I could get it under the mount bracket without dropping it.

Variable Valve Timing

Don't squirt sealant down the holes, put it on the underside of the bolt heads.

No don't do that you'll f*ck the timing up, you need special cam locking tools if you remove the rocker cover. First thing i'd do is clean all the oil off everything so you can see exactly where the leak's coming from.
