Right - another moan about renault....basically i put my valver in for a new rack about 6 WEEKS AGO and still dont have it back yet. Had a courtesy car for the last 2.5 weeks and its seriously pissing me off now as im sure the bill will be 4 figures (needed a new alternator bracket too) so im...
K-tecs site seems to be down at the mo but im assuming its the kit with the caliper extender brackets and bigger discs as oppossed to an entire new kit (I.e. callipers etc)?
if it is then i had that kit on my megane...excellent value and makes an incredible difference - go for it! The only...
Wherabouts are you Ben H? Theres a willy 2 for sale beside me for 5k that looks fairly mint and standard. Its on autotrader..if you enter my postcode (AB116NQ) its 5 miles away....
De-cat definately and headwork i think. If its the 8V energy engine, junk your induction kit (if thats the filter youve got) and get a replacement element or something nearer the front of the car away from the heat. Should be possible to get a camshaft for it by now too....
Yeah take the K&N and throw it away. Wouldnt bother with the manifold at the mo...the cast job is pretty good as is but would go for the decat, chip, pbv, cams n pulleys...

Well i suppose its your money but i cant help thinking its gonna end up one of those unfinished projects that runs out of cash but again its your money.....
Yes - i can give a quick explanation here and ill send you a picture of it on my car later today/tomorrow m8. The picture will make my rather vague discription a bit easier to understand but its better than the PBV instructions either way! Note: its best to get some extra fuel hosing as there...
Your gonna dump 2.0 turbo into your 1.2 shell??? They weigh more so its gonna fcuk with your handling/weight distribution m8! You also wont have all the equipment youll need to cope with that extra power...brakes anyone? It aint worth the bother.....youd be better getting something higher up the...
Been having a think about this again - sound theory if you think about; manufacturer bhp figures are quoted with the standard alternator hooked up so if you disconnect it at full throttle its gonna unleash extra bhp (engine can divert more power to ignition system etc). The fact racing teams use...
