Only induction kit i know of that really does keep the hot air out. sounds bloody amazing too.
Not being funny but those filters are killer, esp if your thinking of trying to squeese ou some performance.
I had/have a 1.4RT and the only way i could squeese noticable power out of it (and it wasn't much, just rev'd bit more freely) was Exhuast - Decat - and Hillpower induction.

Bollow forgot about the ECU.. see its been awhile i forgot about all the added extras. but the main purpose for doing it was the insurance. literally all the mods can be done and the engine bay still looks more or less the same doesn't it?

thinking about it... this post maybe more than year old im thinking about
I cant find it! anybody remeber it? was fair while ago now, had loads of info about possible tunning a 1.4RT...
I wanted the info on the throttle boddies transplant if anybody remebers it? from a 1.8 Lug was it?
Ta, its not really all me doing the work, my dad used be a mechanic so he knows his stuff.

Never fear! after blood and sweat got the bstd out!
Onto the next problem... head gone down to get skimmed.
I was about to buy the Cylinder head gasket set for the clio.. and the bloke says theres two kits!?!? when i looked online there was only 1 priced £30inc VAT, this bloke stating...

it could be clutch, never thought about it! thing is its my gf car, she doesn't really ragg is much, and she had it in for a service only couple weeks ago so if it was anything todo with the tyres you would think tehy would have picked up on it.
