    simple mods - more harm then good

    because the 172 comes with 166bhp as std.......from teh factors as teh factory have told us and we have tested....so, its not just 8bhp. the amount of development i went thtough with the chip alone left the car driving much better......but overall power gains were not huge, and dont really...

    Strut Braces - Can anyone help

    on teh new clios....you would really need to push the car super dooper hard to get any realy flex in the chassis since the tyres will slip before any real flexing ocurs...but on the track, yeah, i would have one deffo. but since they are so cheap, i would get one anyway........ but i didnt...

    Strut Braces - Can anyone help

    in teh new clios a strut wont take any feeling away as they are pretty damn ridgid as std. but under really hard cornering with say slicks or something where chassis flex may occur it is beneficial. But they are very nice and do lok up to the job at hand, and there not expansive at all so you...

    N20 wont damage it if you set it up properly....... and it;ll only bow apart your motor if detonation sets in. and smokin in teh cars is fine, N20 wont combust itself, it needs a fuel to burn with or insanely high temps....which a fag will not create. the tanks can blow up if heated...

    service light and airbag light

    this happens often for us and msotly turns out to be the wire under the drivers seat being loose. try wiggling it, or get renault to have a look at it and it will probably be this....unless there is a real fault.

    Huge backfire

    um, yeah, the 320bhp GTTs run high 12s....but they alos weigh a shed load less than a clio, and have their suspension setup for drag racing and weight transfer kept to a minimum. if a 250bhp clio could get near 14 secs i would be oh so impresssed..........maybe ill be eating my words! haha.

    simple mods - more harm then good

    yup, teh RENIX system on teh clio dont ahndle it too well, as i found out too.... but funny you call the bolt on stuff traditional mods. in the 50s to 70s most people would swap head, carbs, manifold, dizzys, mod advance weights, etc etc....so, i think as time has progressed, the average max...

    Alloy wheel expert needed

    i wouldnt bother, you wont really gain anything.....not with 300mm vented discs under there.....but you do come to a point where you overbrake your car....with huge discs if you run hard pads, itll take longer to heat up and thus longer to work properly. but mag wheels are a no no on teh...

    there you go.... teh new 6 speeder will still fit the as the hosing bolts are the same. but if you wanna use it is up to you, no real need really....driveshafts will need to be changed though. but the new megane uses teh same F4 units though....renault aint develooping a new engine at cost...
