No worries mate! I'll confirm with Ben and drop you a PM!

It's easier for me to go to Uttoxeter, straight down the a50 onto the M1 then A14 down to the Kimbolton junction. M6 takes about 10-15 minutes more!

Didn't pick it up 
Cat still haven't delivered the cams, he's waiting on 4-5 sets!

6 sets to be precise
i would say this wait is turning into somewhat of a piss take, but i said that 6months ago lmao.
this is what annoyed me about Ben, parts should have been in before the car. Very unprofessional to have order parts 6+ months in, sure there's a great reason though

I changed management and with that meant the FBW cams A) Wouldn't work B) Were no where near big enough
Man, i really loved the project, i'm also thinking in improving my 16v, but in Portugal we have lots of problems with the police by now.
For now i have only supersprint rear end mufler and a K&N air filtre to catch up with the exaust mod.
In future i was thinking in taking off the catalizator, can you tell me if the ecu runs badly without the catalizator, since the exaust sensor senses more gases...

If you have two oxygen-sensors (one before and one after the cat) the ecu will recognize the missing cat an the MIL will be on. Won´t have an influence on power, but it´s on and you have an entry in your failure memory.
I would recommend a 200 cell sport catalyst und an exhaust manifold.
I modified together with a friend of mine an old Clio RS manifold....

Oliver, Have you welded on a K4M flange so the manifold fits the head? I was thinking of doing that with a 182 manifold! The standard manifold doesnt look to bhad in terms of shape and size. Have you noticed any gains by using the 172 manifold??
ClioI Ph.3 1.6 16V
Yes I did, but not installed yet. At the moment I still have a warranty claim (f**** ignition coils) and I want to have solved this in advance before installing it.
I can´t say if this will improve anything. I got the RS manifold very cheap und also the flanges, so I thought let´s try it. I like making my own experiences...
The rest of the exhaust system that´s actually installed consists also only of OEM parts but of the Megane RS. I installed mid and rear silencer of the megane RS but did cut away the double end pipes. The catalyst outlet is increased to 60mm. I also installed the down-pipe of the of the Megane RS, so that means the complete exhaust system has a diameter of at least 60mm, the only thing that´s stock is the catalyst itself.
The manifold will be the last step in the chain...
Some more pics...
the original RS manifold
this is like the original manifold of a 1.6 16V MeganeII looks like
I made a framework for adaption...
the MeganeRS down-pipe (big size...)
the complete system...
good sound so far...

Oh! I might now about this already...

I've just completely gone off the whole project TBH, considering selling up thats all! I want a 106 Rallye, lol.

The ClioII is simply the wrong body for the K4M-engine...:rasp:
