MK2 172...here comes 200bhp

[Fred@BTM]

£1750 from us, but we use Schrick cams

and is that matched inlet, cams, and a remap of existing ecu? I'm tempted

yep!

 

[ChrisR]

nice Heard nothing but good things about Shrick kit so that'd definitely be top of my list

 

[Big Iain]

Never even needed 1000 never mind 20 000

Yeah sure donz give me a shout in the new year.

I m caught in two minds whether to mod my 03 172 or save the pounds for a 182 trophy in May. Decisions decisions!! Saw a Megane Trophy aswell today they are nice motors.

Circa 200!! I am yet to hit the rollers but will in the next week or two.

I have just picked up my clio and driven 600 miles in what now feels like a completly different car. I have had high torque/fast road inlet and exhaust cams fitted with a full manifold match done and a complete re-map to make everything work. I cant get over the difference and just how much SMOOTER she pulls with such relentlessness (I feel like I am taking in off in 3rd!!!) rev limiter os now set to 7,800rpm.

This has all been done to compliment earlier work done that includes a 2.5 inch sports cat back stealth system, carbon maxogen induction, LEDA suspension, brembo disc upgrade with braided lines and some new rubber!!!

This complete package is down to the astounding work done by GDi (yes i've read the posts and heard the GOSSIP about this and that) and I did not even for a second, having actualy been to speak with GDi, have any reservations about having them do it. and boy oh boy am I glad I did do it.....those 600 miles were a lot of fun let me tell you!

So if your thinking about it then let me tell you...STOP THINKING and start saving to get it done!!!!

Glad to here your happy m8 ,, Please give me a ring when you get a min spare.

i never got the OK call after all was installed and running again.

 

[bellautos]

Also you say you've been remapped and shifted the limiter, has he hooked you up with an SMT6? Or just bunged an R-sport in?

its a personal remap to suite his mods , and NO it was not just a R-sport bunnged in

 

[bellautos]

RR graphs are a load of nonsense. Been down that road and quickly realised these graphs are just for pub chat.

You've had the car done by the best performance tuners in the business. It's faster and much better.

I bet you are very happy with it.

Well said m8 ,, afterall you carnt drive a piece of paper

 

[Ali]

ohhh touchy!

hardly after the 20'000 threads bashing GDI, was more forewarning him before he has you three band wagon'eers trash talking his car and the work done.

and Ali... there's nothing good about GB... well, maybe apart from the ferry and plane routes out the place... i hate this country lol

There something we agree on!!!

John i'm going to church tomo to pray that your car makes it past newyear! Nah i'm sure the work done on Danz's car will be good. Lessons learned and all that from stoddie's!

 

[BenR]

LOL, well I'm only half English, but both halfs of me dislike this infernal s**t hole lol.

think the preyers are a bit premature, it's done about 10k now, any problems now I think it's safe to say will be down to Reno shitness and nothing Andy can have possibly done, but appreciate your concerns lol. Remember, I have been through all this before with my bottom end on WC and Stromba campaining against BenR's work blaming him, so I'm used to this... just for the record it was nothing of Ben's fault, just a case of s**t happens... oil pump went, bottom end died... still, got a 24k Willy engine and it fookin flew again.

Ben, what kind of manifold... you have my attention bud! lol
I have the pants 172 stainless effort on at the moment, what benefits would I see over this one? I hear the 182 fanimold will only give me about 5bhp, but that sounds like a pretty nice and easy gain for the costs?

modded manifold for £300! jesus!

H Christ!!!!

Manifold matching £176

Im sure I had a question mark after the 300...so hold your horses until I find the figures!:nono: !

Still GDi was working on it until 10.30 in the evening, I had a trip to Aberdeen to make, so I would have paid £300 just to say thanks for the effort (above and beyond the call of duty).

 

[Donz144]

Thanks again BELLAUTOS..sorry about the call, but like I said it wasnt till after 11pm I picked her up to make my journey. Ill put a call into you ASAP.:star:
