gettin a 172 bumper put on my 1.4 phase 2 mark 1 clio.
was told that you needed to get new wings aswell.
looking at the pic below you dont, you only need to get new wings if you want to put the 172 side skirts on.
can some1 clear this up please.
top picture shows a 172 and the bottom one...
if i read that and didnt know about IK id order and expect around 10bhp.
my mates got a K&N induction kit on his mark 1 1.4 which sits right on top the engine. he is under the impression that it gives loadsa of hp more.
i told him hes likely to be loosing hp as its just suckin in hot air...
the the 1.4 16v and the rsi r exactly the same on the front.
and ull also need 172 side skirts cus the new wings r cut away at an angle at the bottom to accomodate them.
u can try breakers but to be honest they are only 130 from reno i think.
thats not painted.
im having one put on my 2000 1.4 16v this week ,through insurance!
got to have thr front re dun after a crash so the body shop are doing me a 172 front! very nice!
oh and if ur puttin a 172 front...
Q
Will an induction kit make a huge difference?
A
In general you will feel a difference yes. If complimented with other tuning mods a bigger difference will be felt. Dont expect huges though, 10bhp is average but its a good place to start
This seems slightly mis leading id say. 10bhp is...
have done and its really pissing me off!!!
the rubber necking is secure as nething round the inlet manifold.
the rest of the kit is secure. the breather filter is tight on.
wen i have the old airbox on its fine, i even took the breather pipe out of the airbox and put the new breather...
u can get universal filters i believe so at a gues if u got a relocation pipe u could fir wot filter u liked on the end so long as it would fit the end of the pipe
help needed please!!
getting more and more p*ssed off with this kit i got from ktec.
have fitted it all as per instructions, have fitted breather filter and connected all wires etc etc etc.
but my my engine is idlein now at between 2 and 3000 revs!!!!!!!!!!!!
why is this happening have...
i own a 1.4 16v mark 2 phase 1. they are 98 bhp as standard which is more than a VTR.
they are group 5 insurance.
get an 1.4 16 si and u get sports seats air con very nice :D
yeh i know i like to know what other people think tho, i like wot i like n wundered wot other people like!
so long as its not TSW venoms as i might have to disagree lol
its probably bin discussed before but im just interested to know people opinions on what wheels look best on mark 2 clios.
multi spokes? 5 spokes? 8 spokes?
ive just bought sum phat torra 8 spoke alloys for my clio but they rnt on yet.
ive heard people say before 5 spokes are the only...
you want to be careful with an oper filter like the px because if its put near the engine it will more than likely just suck in warm air which will actually cause you to loose power.
so id go for a closed ik like the viper.
do ktec do a ramcharger ik for a 1.2? i dont think they do thats wot...
yeh thats the same with mine it sounds far faster than it really is.
tell u wot u wana do mate is get ur exhuast de catted. it sounds amazing with an induction kit.
definitely go for 17s u wont regret it.
well if ur only gettin an exhuaust and filter then their not gona give u much noticble gains in power anyway on a 1.2.
its gona make it sound very nice, so get sum nice 17s too.
ive got a 1.4 16v clio that ive had de catted and ramcharger induction kit.
and i personally think that if ur...
i cant stand theivin
scum bags who cant afford to buy things themselves steal things.
scum of the earth shud have their hands chopped off far as im concerned or shot, the world wud be alot better place without them
going to buy some 205/40/17 for my new 17s.
jut looking on mytyres.co.uk, and they are asking for speed index.
