Clio lll Dynamique SX TCE
so far i havent had any trouble with the gearbox or engine ( Touch Wood ). but the best thing is that is anything does go wrong with teh engine then all u need to do is unplug the attachment and then no one knows as the ecu dont register the attachment
E30 318iS x2
Yeah but over a few thousand it isn't going to do componants that are ment to handle 100bhp any good is it thats all I think.
Would love to spend 1500 odd getting it mapped, uprated inter coolers, presure valves, injectors etc but cant warrent it atm. Ineteresting the prospects of a 1.2 just because of a tiny tiny turbo though

and for a few grand on top of that for insurance, running fees, servicing and faults lol. ill stick with what ive got lol
Clio lll Dynamique SX TCE
i like the handling atm of mine. as its not choppy or anything and it feels positive all the. of course its not gonna be super fast but i dont want it to be so hard that u can tell what type of paint is on the floor lol. i just wanted more power for on the motor-ways and also to upset the odd BMWs and vts drivers out there. especially when u tell them thats its not even a 1.2 lol makes me smile every day. and its still useable every day too
Clio lll Dynamique SX TCE
atm im running 139 but thats with the leaking dump valve. so when i get that fixed it should be at least 140 and thats me done for engine work. other than a induction kit eventually for the fun of it but atm

Sarcasm.......:quiet:
If the box is only good for that fair nough but if that goes wrong its costly and to uprate that yourll be a few ££££ and if you do then youll be looking at a larger intercooler for peace of mine new injectors plugs....all mounts up why not just save the cash and buy somin thats ment to have power ???
Clio lll Dynamique SX TCE
all the dyno runs in mine were done in 2nd and 3rd gear with 1 top speed run for the fun of it lol. 130 aint bad is it lol. the 1st gear boost retarder is a killer cus that limits it to about 60 hp in first gear no matter what u do to it
Mk3 Clio dynamique SX
White Sti Hatch
Your shitting me right !!! the standard height Mk3 has to have the worst handeling ive ever had in a car it rolls like a mother and gives no confidence in corners even at as lil as 30
Clio lll Dynamique SX TCE
i dont exactly throw it around corners lol but atm it does me fine handleing wise. atm its had the power-systems ecu upgrade. adjusted the wastegate to give about 9-10 psi and it now runs on 99 oct unleaded and its had a race tube fitted in teh exhaust to eliminate the middle silencer and has a K&N panel filter in.
White Sti Hatch
Braces are a waste dont do anything on the cars with the position of the strut tops on the car, Uprated bushes and ARBs is what is called for along with lowering like you said stiffer springs and i go with replacment dampers (adjustable if money stretches)
How many other cars have you drivin ???
You mean a De Cat as the center section is a secondary cat....
Clio lll Dynamique SX TCE
it looks like the front already has a form of brace. well sorta. it does look thin mind u lol
White Sti Hatch
Theres no brace its just the bulkhead....as for fitting one it seems imposible as the scuttle covers it up so without modifing it you stuck unless someone makes one that runs from the side of the struts
Clio lll Dynamique SX TCE
na there called race tubes. its just eliminates the center silencer after all the cat gubbins. it gives it a bit more of a raspy sound that u dont get with a car with a cat still fitted. sounds more like it should now. u no its there and its got a engine but its not like u can hear it miles away
Clio lll Dynamique SX TCE
ahh ok. yeh i just realised what that is now lol. i think it'd look a bit messy though if u had 1 coming out and would it offer much support like that either lol
White Sti Hatch
Still a De Cat....center section isnt just a silencer its a secondary cat...Race tube lol sure its not a Scafold Tube ???:rasp:
Mk3 Clio dynamique SX
a race tube!! its just a replacement pipe though....
White Sti Hatch
One a clio there pointless unless your going the whole hog and actualy getting them welded to the struts...As for spacers got them and theres no diffrence to the handling just to the looks.
Golf GT TDI, IS220d
as said earlier mate, useful on some cars but not on clio's as the stuts are so close to the bulkhead, they dont do anything that the bulkhead doesnt already do
Mk3 Clio dynamique SX
hmm, intresting stuff, ok point taken, spacers should improve things as they widen the base... wider stiffer should make a difference right.

Inuendo FTW
To be honest if taken my track 50mm wider front and rear and theres no diffrence the best improvment i got was when it was slammed...(Spacers went on after coils)
Mk3 Clio dynamique SX
they are expensive, ive always had dampers and spring combo. The VTR had billies and custom 180lb springs.
White Sti Hatch
You pay for what you get. Dampers n Springs your stuck at a height unless you get new springs off the shelf or made...Coils you can go where you want i can get mine back to standard height in 20 mins if need be, wheel off C spanner and away you go same if i want it where its sitting now....
Up to you what you spend your cash on but id push you to get the coils...you get such a good stand out them along with the 0% body roll.
This is waht you want mate....
Excuse me at my boot.
