^^ doesnt sound right, if it wasnt registered untill june 2000 then it should be a 2000 reg (X iirc)

true but with the reduced weight of my car (wighing aorund 975kg) i would hopefully get similar performance levels. wont going that route anyway now

asked about 16v head before, was told wasnt worth it, think i will go 172 route, all depending on insurance may have it given the AWT and GDI treatment before it goes in, cams, inlet manifold, smt6, maybe even throttle body/ies should see over 200bhp then

cutomer service to of the highest order ^^^

the rxe is probably only worth £2500-£3000, as its a 1998 R. and would love the stealthness of a 5door 172 :) hopefully will just look like a nicely modified 1.2 when its finished, but then be a LOT faster hehe

i meant labour charges on top of the bits, as i couldnt/wouldnt do it myself

how much would it be to have a 172 engine fitted? might actually work out cheaper for me to 172 my existing car

I'll just get a mk1 172 or drop a 172 lump in next september - hopefully

ohwell worth asking

my mk2 is a 1998 R reg

how do i get my 1.6 8v it? Not that i can afford to dop anything to it right now, but thats my target figure if i decide to do exstenvive work to my car. Idea behind it is that with that kind of power I should be in the 172/182 leauge as my car would hopefully, still be around 200kg lighter...

thats fantastic increase

it should do, all the b&m quickshifts are the same for clio's so would you could interchange them all.

if you must do it, then black

valver is a 1.8, you are better going for the 2.0ltr as more tuneable

lol, i should be nice to him really, need him to fit my suspension

what are you gonna to it then??

depends on what else your doing, but i would say clear

those back boxes will categorically NOT have made any performance increase! and those ebay resistors will shag your car.

75/80bhp i think

theres no point in tuning that engine, gains arent very good.

well i should be decreasing unsprung weight by using pro race 2's, if not at lease keeping it the same.

:) superb, i'm having my eibachs fitted in the next couple of weeks, and should be getting the wheels fitted around the same kind of time as long as everything goes to plan (Please mr finance company, be nice and say yes)

in the defence of those people that did, a lot of people dont know what the difference will be between the 2 chips other than they are being told that one will give them more power, i know i didnt know any of this untill i started going on car forums.

i thought so, just wondering because they will be wider tires and someone had said larger alloys will make the car slower. so will having lower profiles tires, light alloys and eibach pro springs fitted make a noticeable difference/improvement to handling?

correct, but not what one dealer told a member on here!

at the moment i have standard 14" alloys and will be buying some 16" prorace 2's which weigh about 6kg. as these are light wheels will they affect performance at all? increase or decrease acceleration?

yeah, some dodgy dealers about by the sounds of it!

you sold an s1 rallye :( they should be loved and cherished and never sold! i want one... can you tell?
