182 modifying

[gingerwarrior79]

Hi, looking for some advice on modifying up my 182. I am due to buy my clio from work in about a month so am then free to do what i like with it! My questions is:- what mods are going to give me the best increase in power is there within reason a limit to what I can get out of the engine? anyone got any tips on what would be best to do first?

Thanks for any advice.

Dont take this the wrong way but get yourself a beer or two and press this >> http://forum.cliosport.net/forum_images/search.gif

 

[haitch]

..whats your budget? BBT turbo kit 6kish (260hp ish), or headwork, cams, manifold matching, smt7 etc 3kish (200hp ish), both these combos require decent exhaust, ik, just to give you a rough idea

 

[haitch]

..or if your buget is low, IK £250ish, ss exhaust £300, with the rsport chip (not sure of cost...somebody?), not a massive increase in power but better driveability and maybe some eibachs to improve the handling £150 ish.

"Any advice on modifying a 182?"

Go f*ck yourself you f*ucking c*nt, what the f*uck are you asking a question like that on a f*cking clio forum for. F*ck off!!!!!

And welcome to cliosport.

 

[rmccardal]

thats a bit harsh.

 

[badinvincible]

Depends on how much you want to spend. A decent start would be a decat, Viper and R-sport ECU. Speak to BenR or Andy GDI on here.

nice attitude rmccardal

 

[kotafey]

Cover it in super glue and drive through Halfords.

But seriously, why would you want to mod an already outstanding car? I recommend you save your cash for sticky tape to fix all the rattles that come with it...

 

[edde]

If it were my car the list would be as follows.

Coilovers (drop Andy at GDI a call) with the necessary arch liners etc modified.

Better seats.

Uprated brakes.

Engine wise I would either spend a fortume or nothing gains from the engine are minimal with small spending You need to sped ~£3k to get a big enough gains.

I think rolling a big fat one would be more appropriate for some people.

why make stupid pointless comments when someone asks you a serious question

 

[gingerwarrior79]

Apologies then - more hassle than its worth!! Maybe ill just search through old posts next time, might be easier. thanks for the useful posts though - appreciated.

Maybe theres room for an faq per car that people can add their mods too with a rough price? Then perhaps others can put their feedback against each item? Might be a useful guide...

Or as you all said, hit the search button first...

 

[badinvincible]

Decat - £150
Viper - £250
Cat back - £300ish
R-sport ECU - £250 =

£1000

Why should people search? Its hardly filling up the (very slow moving) front page with 182 tuning topics and what new options are avalible. I dont wanna use old tuning methods if a new improved product is released/ recently tested.

The search facility hasnt worked properly for almost a year anyhow!

A FAQ section has to be the way forward!

Nobody ever listens though

FAQ section in the members area? Makes sense when the new forum is up and new members are allowed.
