Hi y'all,
I currently have a Clio 172 and I don't know what to do. It's too slow, I can either do a few mods or get a new motor.
I used to have a chipped Williams 2, which I loved, stuck to the road like a limpet and went like stink from low revs all the way through the range but cost an arm and both legs to run. My 172 feels dead below 4000rpm. I was thinking maybe group N phase 2 ecu remap and decat pipe? What do you all think, will that help a bit? I don't want to spend too much, not really over £500 on mods.
OR, I can sell up and get a 2000/2001 Impreza turbo, but I'm a little worried about running cost nightmares I've heard about. Also is the 172 cup much better than my bog standard 172, worth a swap? I kind of like Xenons and leather!!
Help please,
John
