I can keep up with my mates F-type S into triple figures. It's 380bhp but weighs just shy of 1600kg! Also pulled on my friends standard 265bhp S3. With a head start I can hold off my friends A45 up into triple figures, but past 110 he leaves me standing (that thing is stupidly quick) No idea on...

I put a cone filter I had in the garage on my 65 for a laugh and it did naff all so stuck the standard air box back on.

It is indeed. The roads are amazing aren't they. It's only about 10 miles from me so it's pretty much my go to place for a drive.

Thanks @imprezaworks. Finding half decent royalty free music is so hard.

I got a new toy, a camera gimbal. Decided to go make a vid last night featuring the Cup and my brothers SV650. It's a bit long tbh, just a test edit/practice really. Thought i'd share anyway.

Some good photos there. Will post some of my own later. Ended up parked next to a 488 all morning. Felt a little bit out of place.

Looks like a really clean one. Nice!

I'm happy to park amongst the normal cars tbh!

Looks so tidy. Looking forward to seeing it tomorrow.

Probably not going to arrive until just before 9 so hopefully there's enough room to park! Me and a mate also have an A45 tagging along with us now.

Weather depending i'm going to pop along in the Cup and my mate will be tagging along in his Jag.

Thanks@bashracing!

Took a photo of the old girl on my new camera at the weekend, did a bit of editing. No new plans for car at the moment. Loving it as it is.

I'd have to disagree with @ForcedIndia, I see the logic behind what your saying however owning a boosted Clio isn't the ball ache it's made out to be. People don't post on forums moaning that their cars are working well - only when they're broken. Mines had the ED kit on it since December 2015...

Personally I prefer the darker photos.

Perhaps, however I was under the impression your mpg reading will be way out because of the larger injectors. Mine reads 38 too but that's sure as hell not what I get when I add it up myself.

I believe so. Mine seems to run very rich. Is there anything I can get to help improve mpg then?

Not really. I'd say I'm pretty relaxed driving it these days. It's always been really bad on fuel. Hence why I now daily a DCI. I assumed 250 miles to a tank or a little more was normal from speaking to a few others

Actual mpg on the ED kit is more like 26/27. Works out at about 250miles to a tank on average for me.

As above I wouldn't go any higher than 250bhp if you want reliability. I've seen a few clios running that or above that eat gearboxes and constantly seem have issues - if the moaning Facebook statuses are anything to go by. I've been running low boost 230bhp/235lbft for about 14 months now and...

I've noticed more feedback or vibration through the wheel on rougher roads but just as smooth of a ride on newer ones. Sometimes they can feel more crashy / bouncy on more challenging b roads but I think that's just because they're firmer. Personally I like them as my cars just a toy I use at...

Haha. Alright when I get round to it i'll post the sizes here.

What do people reckon on using stainless steel bolts for the engine mounts etc? Just want to replace a few under the engine bay as it's looking a little tired.

:cool: Cheers buddy. Will keep an eye out for yours.

Fitted the Grams springs from Kam Racing today... initial impressions are really good. They've dropped the car a little more and handle really nicely. I've had Cooksports before on my old Cup so decided to try something different but i'd liken them to Cooksports in terms of ride/handling. The...

Thanks mate, appreciated it! was just heading out for a spin after fitting the new springs

Grams lowering springs ordered today... should have them on this weekend. I'll get before and after photos seeing as there's virtually none I can find for anyone else considering them. Can't wait

Yes @BoostedSi, wheels fit but there's less than 4mm clearance. Wheels are ET43 and i'm running 280mm discs with 10mm spacers. I'm pretty sure the 4 pots have had some machining down to fit. Not up until now @imprezaworks , just had a look. Current Eibach Pro's state a 15mm drop and these are...

Cheers mate. Couldn't agree more. I don't think cooksports will quite cut it tbh, so coilovers are on the cards next.

Haha I thought they'd divide opinions! they're in the garage for whenever I fancy another change...
