    I want my old car back

    from all the reviews i had read on here, the handling of the 172 didnt impress me at all when i was first in one, the speed did though. and they do look better. but given the choice of a standard 172 or modded 1.6 dynamique id take the dynamique

    New 182 custom dash

    so the existing dash is still behind with all switches and stereo still intact and your race car is now slightly heavier with that new dash! Why do most guys remove the weight to gain an advantage and you shoot your self in the foot by adding that lol (try removing some of the dash first)...

    New 182 custom dash

    Wouldnt you be easier just adding the guage pod to your existing dash and save the weight of that monstrosity of stainless steel and i am sure you could have place the last three!! switches somewhere on the existing dash?? i could be wrong but i doubt it lol

    Too all 172/182 guys in the know.

    you can get 260bhp N/A from a 1600 16v with enough money so from a2.0 16v thats more than possible
