LMFAO!!!!
^^^i agree
i gotta 1.2 expression and the only thing got put on mine was a Remus Racing exhaust so it could sound a bit more beefy. i decided im wasnt gonna waste ma money on a 1.2 that will only get 2bhp more from engine mods but part from that take ya spare wheel out the back and u can knock 0.4's of the 0-60 figure AND beat the 1.2 corsa chavs aswell lol
A silver one
No s**t dick head!!!!! That's my f**king thread about my car being broken into!!!!
I was being sarcastic and trying to make myself chuckle!
if its the 1.2 16v engine, then seriously don't even bother, crap engine, with the worst inlet manifold/plenham in the world
How f**k was I meant to know that’s your f**king thread you prick.
I never read who posted it just scaned thought it.
Making your self chuckle but posting some thing stupid
you might aswell set fire to £20 notes, seriously, been there, done that, not worth it
all of that you list will give you 5bhp max
ITB BG 182
Then look at an engine conversation say like a 2ltr....
Clio 172 mk2
There you go.....curtains for the 1.2 lol
If you want to make it more efficient and bit more torquey then get a good induction kit from k-tec and an exhaust system with a straight thru silencer like a cherry bomb.
I found when i did this on mine if your in 2nd gear, with the clutch down doing about 5mph, when you bring the clucch up you dont have to rev it as much to stop it from jurking, which is what happens with a standard air filter and exhaust becuase the engine cant breathe as well.

Its cux renault put cheap tiny paper air filters, which practically suffocate the engine at low rpms' and exhausts which are way too restrictive to keep them quiet.
Turbos.
Seeing as it is first car i can't see how people can say drop a 172 engine or save up for 182...Most of us have modified our cars to some degree, if he wants to, let him!
People are right though, don't get your hopes up about power. You can get a better manifold and exhaust system for your 1.2, as well as a Viper induction kit. If you could find someone to remap the car you might see a bit of an increase.

yep, came from a 1.2 to get 172.. totally recomend u save your cash!!! well worth it
RB 182 Cup
only thing ive done to mine is a induction kit only for the sound really. i dont see the point in tuning a 1.2 as the gains will be minimal if not nothing. And if you did tune it, it would still wouldnt be able to beat the 1.4 16v version lol. Just keep it standard as most 17 year olds stuff their first car anyway.

really really not worth it, if you want to spend a couple of grand you can get power increases, stick a set of motorbike carbs on it but for the money its not worth it.
s**t hot suspension, upgraded brakes, powerflex suspension and ARB bushes, front strut brace, strip everything out it and it will go a bit better, get a pannel filter and exhaust for it and it will sound better but not go any faster.
as for the guy whos exhaust and air filter made him go loads faster, dont talk crap lol if the air filter is fine to let the engine rev to 6,200rpm doing 5mph in 2nd gear wont restrict it

I never said it makes it faster- just lets it breathe better and makes it more efficient. Trust me if you take a standard 1.2 16v and pull away in 2nd at 5mph using low revs it will jerk and shake like a bi**h, the movement of air in and out of the car isn't easy enough.

woops sorry im getting confused with the guy who said taking out his spare wheel allowed him to beat a corsa lol
take any small engined car and pull away at 5mph in 2nd and it will judder, its because it lacks torque and no exhaust or air filter will sort that.

I actually noticed mine got a lot better when i sorted my filter and exhaust. i just requires a lot less revs now to pull away smoothly.

you could stick a racing back box on it with a 10" tip, a resistor of justice and a electronic supercharger gay thingy, some turbo sticker and a motorsport sunstrip and you'll have proper wickid reeeespect init and your car will be so powerfull it wont put any power down at all! amen
Clio does judder like a b**ch in traffic when crawling along in 2nd gear, the only way to get round it is to build some revs. Or drop it into first, but it doesn't like that either. Its only the Clio that does this, fiesta/ polo etc are fine.
tried a pipex induction kit it was crap( just maded it louder suckin hotair), so i just brought a panel filter and now thinking of puting airfeeds to the filter. I think just make it look like a beast and not look like a sport is a wayforward
Also if you make ur car look like a sport when it isnt you have to inform your insurance and chances are your premium will increase, becuase it makes it more desireable to nick.
Megane Mk4
You forgot to mention the flame igniter at the zorst, the crazy flashy crap LED undercar kit, "fake" stick-on door mirror indicators, "fake" air vents and pins in the bonnet, an LED gear knob, LED footwells, LED washerjets ( see where the LED's are going?
), silver mesh everywhere, V6 style body kit, scuffed Alloy wheels that have been sold to him by his mate and the cheapo bucket seats in halfrauds...pffft, amateur
