Sleeve that fits to the cat not the actual center section, allows the exhaust to sit much further forward so it follows the profile of the exhaust tunnel properly and clears the axle much better.

IMO the rs tuning map is most likely better no doubt about it I have full faith in them, but unfortuantely cost can't be ignored and personally on a 1*2 i'd rather go for (and did) the rstuner for the gains given vs. cost.
For the 182 just get an rstuner kit, £140 and the same results plus the flexibility. I'm going to rstuning on saturday and paying 300 notes for a remap but i'm getting +40bhp/+80nm so its a bit more stomachable.

I'm sure you can get around it with the belt still on but I wouldn't want to be cutting anything off the inlets personally. The belt is fiddly yes if you wanted to change it but not too bad to drop it off the crank pulley, you need a special tool to get the tension off the belt costs about a...
The water would run into the heater in mine and drip out the bottom and into the drivers footwell as this was the lowest point, passenger side was fine obviously there wasn't a very good seal but it shouldn't need to be as the water will only get high enough to run in the heater if the drain blocks.
Well the top one is very similar to the renault one but looking on dialogys you can't buy them seperately. So i'd try one off your original rear dampers.
