    clutch stiff

    worth changing the cable, i changed my clutch and it got twice as light as it previously was, then when i changed the cable it once again got twice as light, its brilliant now never driven a clio with a clutch as light as mine! was only about £30 for the cable i think

    Snapped clutch cable

    wouldnt think anymore than £20 for fitting, its £30 i think for a new one i snapped mine only took 5 mins to fit but the engine was out at the time so that kinda helped, took me about 15 mins to do a mates with the engine in, bit of poking and fiddling about!

    New exhaust manifold.

    wouldnt bother getting the manifold if your not going to decat it to be honest. if your doing it do it properly and do full system!
  15. Martin_172

    bullshit or not??

    even 6bhp is probably unlikely, well on a standard engine which i assume is what superchips are talking about. with the mods you said above and a REMAP instead of a chip you may be looking at 120bhp 125bhp if your lucky, with a filter and inlet manifold work from BenR

    New User, Clio Info Please

    optional extras to look out for are Xenon front lights, you can tell it has them by actually looking at the bulb to see if its one of the big round ones (sure someone has a pic they could show you) or by the fact that it will have headlight washers. Climate control i think was a £800 extra or...

    my new dials!

    aye veryeasy job, surround is just a couple of clips and its off and swap it over (the surround is part of the plastic see thru coverover the front of the dials so full thing comes off) needles were a bit harder but not hard, just stick a screwdriver under them and pop them off.
