Added a centre box and its made a substantial difference to the drone whilst still maintaining the original volume I was hoping for - The biggest difference is that the car now sounds like an E46 M3 at higher RPM.... It has a metallic rasp and with the extra 500rpm the sound at 7500Rpm is...

Will just leave this here...... Excuse the kakkest gear change in the world! My friend in the Golf was struggling to keep up.... http://youtu.be/ACgq5vixrp4 I think its loud enough.

Loaded a basefile onto the car this morning and the difference in performance is out-standing. :drool: But first I need to do some hunting as a doos in a Ford Bantam who was driving like like a c*nt last night (who I blocked in the traffic) decided to get his revenge by throwing a bolt at my...

So its as I suspected...... I wanted to make a post about it but decided to keep my mouth shout for fear of sounding stupid. When I did the decat I nervously waited for the Engine Light to come on and it never did. I then noticed what seemed like smoke caused by over-fuelling at night when...

Okay I finally got a free moment to do the ECU Read on my car and the file has been sent off to DNA Tuning! Excited much!

Decided a little update is required! So first I booked my car for some Gordini Style Stripes in Gloss Black -A Before! Then, the one thing I really like about the Twingo RS is the emphasized fog lights so we decided to give it a try with some Vinyl: I was well chuffed...

Just a quick bump - Mods only got around to approving the 5 tons of posts I added. Thank you!

Aaaand now we are up to speed! Thank you to the admin team for approving my posts. Great work and epic site so far!

Exhaust bits and pieces are ready to go onto the car, all planned out nicely and will go onto the car itself next week - Bit concerned it may be too loud but will see when we get there. Sadly, yesterday I stripped the rear seats out of the car to assist a client transport some wheels and...

Been on an economy run.... My car has not been over 3000rpm once in two weeks and is averaging 8.2 Litres per 100km consistently. Mind............. Blown............ http://youtu.be/OInvANrBknU What does we think of this sound? Single box, 1 inlet, two outlets to two massive exhaust...

Is it just me or is my Clio up to something? I work with a lot of exotic cars and performance vehicles so my Clio is always up for some attention and always sneaking into pics. It seems it has aspirations it simply cannot achieve. Renault Clio Sport 182, ankle...

Lessons learnt so far include that Full Service History means nothing when monkeys work on the car (sump plug pic reference), dogbone mounts are the devil and driving like a nutter = Very expensive tyres. Its been a good 6 Months. :D Mike

TBC.

6 Months of Juicy French Goodness! I'm rather proud to be honest but at the same time let me give you the low down on what its like to own a somewhat compromised Frenchie. For starters I have contemplated selling it and even advertised it on Gumtree more than twice now. Its kind of like...

So coming back from Klapmuts late on the N1 I narrowly avoided a massive accident in the Clio... There was a cow lying in the middle of the fast lane... Managed to swerve off to the right, no idea how I managed it without rolling the car or losing control, good chassis I suppose but still grazed...

Some boredom one evening! Really think its time for a new camera.... :| http://mikesdrive.blogspot.com/2013/10/moist-french-toast-night-photography.html P.S - MikesDrive is my blog, some cool stuff on there with goodies and stuffs I get up to.

The strengthened Engine Mount seems to be holding up but rattles like a mother so not sure whats up now... Something so simple and its a mission. The decat has turned the car into a little monster, its adjusted well now and it runs so well and clear. Its a little pap below 4000rpm but...

Dogbone Mounts doing my head in! Had the engine mount re-welded for the third time, got it strengthened this time though and seems to be staying strong and figured the stinky as hell cat had to go, so had that removed and a straight pipe fitted. The car felt like ass after though, but...

I have not owned many cars in my short lifetime. A classic Mini, a deranged Smart Car and now something I never expected to see in my garage, or rather parking space outside - A Renault Clio Sport. The hunt began after I wrote off my beloved yet much hated Smart Fortwo courtesy of a...
