First Mods?



  Clio 172 PH2 Flamer
What would you all recommend as the first couple of upgrades to do to a Phase 2 172.

Just normal breathing mods? Filter, decat, exhaust, what else? And what sort of gains would you expect.

Obviously not much point in doing anything other than simple modifications, with it being NA, or you end up having to go into the 1000's to get any sort of proper gain (i.e 200bhp) and for that you may aswell get something thats fast in the first place, and obviously the resale value is cack!

Just comparing really, and wanting to know what users normally do. (obviously service the thing first and make sure its running properly before anything is done, and spending money on a track day lesson to teach you to drive comments already taken into account).

I'm pretty sure the 172 version is out now, it wont make your exhaust any louder under acceleration, you get nice pops on gear shifts above 4k and epic overrun bangs/flames using engine braking over 4k!!!

Another thread has just reminded me, uprated engine mounts, save yourself money in the long run and improve the whole feel of the car, (if yours are as bad as mine were) slightly more vibration/feel of the engine but just adds to the character imo :cool:
