is it mapped/chipped or normal

[richcree]

ive heard people say on here there car limits at 6400 revs my cup limits at 7400 7500 and 8000 is the max all ways looks like its gonna bounce of the end the rev needle put me straight people wot does urs limit at. shout out to wolves people . had car nearly 2 yrs x reg cup

 

[edde]

7.2k should be the stock limit but theres a 50rpm tolerance in it.
if it goes to 8k and the rev counter not broken then its chipped.

Be warned though Renault sport racing say running at 8k on a stock bottom end will kill you engine.

An x reg cup?! Dont exist matem a ph 1 172 maybe. If it revs to 8k then its chipped

cheers guys. was lookin 2 buy 197 next few months . on log books 172 cup pack. brought from renault

 

[Lagerlout]

There were no Cup packs on 172's. Only 182's.

Has it got a bubble appearance to the headlights and rear?

 

[richcree]

course there is cup 172

 

[John D]

Rich you really don't know what your talking about. Do some reading on here - then you'll understand when someone says theres no 'cup packs' on 172's, only 182's

 

[richcree]

Isn't it dissapointing when people have a car they just don't understand. Makes you feel as if you deserve it more!

You have a Mk1 172 exclusive.

 

[richcree]

[Blue4Ever]

mk2 phase 1 clio 172 exclusive.... :rasp:

That's debatable.
I agree with you actually but people on here prefer to say mk1 & mk2 172.

 

[rory182]

yeah its not debateable though thats just for ease we say that lol

 

[Blue4Ever]

true

 

[John D]

Isn't it dissapointing when people have a car they just don't understand.

Exactly. But then again maybe I'm just a bit of an anorak!

 

[Lagerlout]

Right, now we've established that you have a Phase 1 Renault Clio Renaultsport 172 and not a Phase 2 Renault Clio Renaultsport 172 Cup I can state with confidence that if your car revs to 8000 rpm then it is most definitely not standard and is probably fitted with an Rsport/Group N ECU.
