    Advice needed - replacing motor for fuel flap release

    What sort of gains would I expect with.....

    Just daydreaming at the moment. If I changed my exhaust for something like a Milltek cat back one, changed the air filter (not sure which one to go for), would I notice any difference in the performance? Then add in an RStuner map as well. Again I don't really know enough about the changes...

    Quick question about mapping an ECU

    My mechanic introduced me to a friend of his tonight who maps ECUs. He said that he could map my car and I would see an improvement on just the map alone.

    Is this dirty water?

    Checking the oil in my engine and I notice some liquid where inlets meet the engine block. I hope I'm describing this right. If you look at the engine (I have a 197 btw) the inlet curves round from the top to join the front of the block. The is a small amount of liquid (which I thought was oil...

    Comparing my 197 and a Focus ST

    A friend of mine is going to tour Europe for a few months and wanted to buy a car to have fun with (driving over the alps etc) that he would sell in about 6 months. He had around £9k to spend and top of his list was a Clio 197. I let him take mine out for a spin and he loved it. He thought the...
