Just a little bit of info if any1 wants to fit a larger throttle body,the golf 4 motion 2.8 v6 bosch item fits the clio 172 with a little bit of fettling. 2 bolt holes line up perfect and the otha 2 just has to hav the holes on the throttle widend a few mm. Apart from this it plugs up and runs...

Hi fellow clio lovers, been tryn 2 start my 172 cup for the last 2 days and now im completely baffled. The engine turns over fine, first i checked all fuses and relays, then i made sure pump was working and plugs firing properly, so after all this i read about tdc sensor and changed this 2day...

Thanx 4 all your replies helps alot. I will go 4 a remap nxt and then leave it at tha 4 power mods. CHEERS.:D

LOL 2. Probably.

I put my 172 on a local dyno other day and it produced 165.8 bhp at 6700 rpm but the tourqe was 123! How is this? coz i thought they were 172bhp iwernt to happy,lol.

HI EVERY1. Just wondered what roughly is the average bhp and tourqe output of the 172,s after a decat and system with a good panel filter? do they usually make more than the 172 they came from the factory with. considering they have had a good few years use.

its not right up to the butterfly valve,but pretty close front and rear! seems to drive perfect,just like b4. but more responsive with a rubbish indution filter. ive put the original box back on 4 now tho. any recomendations on a good induction kit?
