3rd RR Graph is really interesting with the flat spot gone at 3k revs, im trying to work out why and i just cant work out what could cause it and what would have sorted it. initially i thought it could have been the decat but then i noticed 1. it done it before the decat was fitted and 2. you...

go for it, bet you dont have the balls ;)

dci 65 has DCi in silver and has a turbo dci 80 has DC in silver and i in blue, has better injectors and a front mount intercooler dci 100 has D in silver Ci in blue, same 80 injectors, runs 200psi more fuel pressure, bigger turbo, more efficient but smaller intercooler, has a different bottom...

look what ive started lol looks really clean mate, theres so many of them out there that are completely imaculate with high milage that go for pennies, my old 65 was completely mint inside, bit rough on the outside but nothing that tlc wudnt sort out.

yeah started out as a 100, 0-60 bit slower than a 1.6 16v, over 80 its quicker than one, over 100 its a good bit quicker!

but you dont have the standard manifold do you? i thought u had bodies or carbs yes they weight 200kg more than a 172 lol they only weigh 1000kg

lol so ive heard, cant wait to see it! it went extremely well lol ECU Remap, filter and thats all, waiting on a better intercooler coming for it, so far 130bhp 190lb/ft hard one. the 1.2 was my first car loved every minute of that the 172 was extremely quick, handled brilliantly...

that bonnet is the tits

my mate has a C20LET one, its pulling its self apart lol

been looking thru my old pics, quite emotional!! 1.2 16v the 188bhp 172 160k miles dci65 at wales wrc08 dci130 :)

ive found them fine, they are perfect for non xenon equiped cars a nice match. better off removing the sidelight bulbs anyway if you have xenons thats how we've all been rolling for years!!

cheers for that matey that clears a few things up :)

my old 1200 sounded mental with my system lol listen to the bang on the downshift into 2nd Xus5V89HUjo

1500kg lol!!!! what you got in your car to give it an extra 500kg!

i was under the impression longer was bad for torque or have i picked it up wrong and its just a case of TOO long is bad for torque?

they are at the back of the engine so its subframe dropped, steering column disconected from the rack, then you need to wiggle and turn them to get it out! ive done a couple. takes me about 6 hours without ramps!

does inlet tract make a difference on a turbo car like it does on a n/a car? Ie if its too long ull loosr power and torque?

shell and chassis is the same only difference being springs, dampers and ARB

172 with no xenons? thats like having a bird with no vagina

ohh aye and avoid conti sport contact's like the fuckin plague, not sure if there is a new version out but i got a set on the front as i was desperate and needed tyres there and then one day and jesus christ they tried to kill me a few times!

T1-R's on the clio for me arn't as good as the GSD-3's but they are bloddy good for the money!! really its down to driver preference and the car, i swear by gsd-3's but my mate hates them.

1.5dci is a brilliant engine, doesnt suffer from the issues the 1.9 and 2.2 get. hold off for a dci100 if you can

the all important question, how is it compaired to the 197, is it worth the change?

rear dampers must be gone if it 180'ed and u wernt speeding!

lol are we talking 1.6 16v dynamique spec here? ive never driven any older ph1 clios but the dynamique spec ones with sport suspension package handle brilliant, much softer setup than the 172 but the grip is there

182 exhaust manifold is the BEST mod i done to my 172 along with the k-tec link pipe/decat difference in mid range pull was brilliant. imo if you dont want the hastle of fitting the manifold (its a pain) and changing the cat every year for mot (once you have a custom cat made for it!) then id...

theres a big difference however tyres make a massive difference on the non RS models. 1.2's have horrible electric PAS on them with no feeling or weight. the rest have the sports suspension package and hydraulic PAS and just feel like a softer setup of the 172. when i got my 2nd dci (my...

not sure if k-tec can offer custom remaps now that they are in partnership with GDi, not sure if its just omex they do remapping for

its one of they things if you can do it yourself then go for it or atleast have it fitted cheap for the following reasons... 1. you only have 1 cam not 2 2. reprofiled cams cost a fraction of the cost of aftermarket cams 3. the belts are a piece of piss to do on 1.2 16v's 4. it will give gains!

looks good, id keep the black plastics as said but id ditch the silver 16v badges for black ones, the 2 different colours of silver clash, swap the side repeaters for genuine clear ones, swap the headlights for grey backed ones, and colourcode the spoiler, sorted :)
