Id suggest maybe to wait for the super 2000 inlets rather than getting the standards on matched..... Just a thought

I was always told that inlets should not be matched to the Gasket?!

I'd keep the money, and take your 172 on holiday for two weeks.
What you do with the missus is your business!

Hmm...
No0bs today..
172's are old hat now, DONE.
up ye! mortgages are where its at
As for 172's make sure it's running right, Koni shocks and eibach sportlines and some new ARB bushes and a geometry setup
Black Gold with cup packs
been there... 2k on repairs in 2 weeks on my 172cup.... I almost lost faith in Renaultsports.. but it was regained once repaired and I now own another Some are bad, some are good, some are great.. I have a great one atm....
Just enjoy it fella. I have spent a fortune on modifying clios in the past and chasing performance figures is certainly not worth it unless you have intentions of using it in a cotrolled competative enviroment... Or you have £5k to spend on a supercharger conversion... Upgrade your brakes and make sure you have quality tyres, worth there weight in gold as far modifications go. Play to the Clios strengths... Handling... any upgrades that will contribute to an improvment in handling mainly brakes and tyres (coilovers if you have a grand.... which you do but that would be all your money gone for a great upgrade and properly corner weighted).....
Make sure the belts are done as well, if not get them done.

Listen to it Mr 'two cars'
You've had a 182 and even you say it was a far better drive than the 172 :lolup:

Put it in the bank, then put clio on pistonheads, sell it. Combine the £3k you get for it with the £1k you have in your bank account. Go on pistonheads, search for e36 M3, look at car, drive car, buy car.
The end

Better to drive, but only slightly.Listen to it Mr 'two cars'

£1k on a 172? 4-5 track days. There's nothing else you'll do that will bring more enjoyment from the car.

I am seriously thinking about that sort of investment; would love to find out how the RS can perform off the public highway

:rasp: In all seriousness, all a 172 needs to be epic is DS2500's, Brembo HC Discs, braided lines & some dot 4. Spend the rest on a trip to the ring or some track days.

Ah just what I thought!

Coming from experience chasing power firgures is far more expensive than its worth fella, better to let someone else take the hit for you
If i had 1k it would be going on professionally setup H&R coilovers
