Hey all, I'm llew, i'm 19 and recently bought a clio sport 1.4 X reg. I've driven a fair few cars on and off the road but the first time i tried the clio i absolutely loved it, it feels so tight through the corners and has just enough power to have a bit of fun... But, it's not enough, so against the wishes of everyone i know i want to push its limits a tad.
The only problem is i've never worked with modding a petrol engine, i had an old peugeot turbo diesel i had alot of fun messing around with, but with the clio i wouldn't know where to start... the air filter isn't worth touching, spark plugs are immaculate, oil is cleaner than my bedroom, brakes are pretty much new, the only thing i've found is the bushings are seriously worn, and there are a couple advisories for wishbones/suspension arms, so those will have to be swapped out asap. i've serviced the whole engine and nothing needs doing in terms of repairing or replacing, so i suppose it's straight to aftermarket mods/ tuning. Any thoughts ?
