Thank you!
well done joey look like you got a minter
It really is Adz!! Mmmmm, you should get one - this one will last me for years and years and still be worth a few hundred quid. Good investment
Inneys and outies lol the pugsports, all personal preference to be fair
Im sure it will look good whatever you decide to do with it mate not many of them in that condition anymore
Did not know that about the 192 exhaust!
What about a Kam Racing system? http://www.kamracing.co.uk/index.ph...ugeot-106-kam-racing-race-exhaust-system.html
Any experience with one?

Yeah it was influenced by the Pugsport - There is only one sole UK importer of the pugsport and the rs192
Great systems for both carsIve heard they are loud and hang a bit lower than the Pugsports and pop alot, nothing bad about them really, i for one dont mind the poping on the over run
Looks fantastic, great upgrade. I speak to Callum a bit and know its wanted for nothing.
I've got a diablo red W plater myself and have been really pleased with it!
One thing, please don't slam the torsion bar...They look shocking done like that and result in the beam becoming shagged!

I wouldn't say no to some good old pops and bangs tbh! Decatted my old Clio in the hope of some pops, but got nothing
Yeah! They're old & French, can't expect it to be perfect. Fairly sure I've got a good one though
It'll hopefully have the same amount of care during my ownership - no expense spared etc
Haha, don't worry! I was hoping not to touch the torsion bar at all due to them wearing out - but 20-30mm can't do too much harm!
I'd love pops & bangs! 4-2-1 + decat should do it. It's not like I can't put it back to standard if it's a bit much..
Nose down stance is a must - see too many Saxo's with the rear slammed and the front in the air!
Lol! The Laguna splitter? Not my choice, but I can live with it until I decide on a new un.
Stone chips! It's a 14 year old car
Yup! renclio's old one
They've aged quite well compared to most cars IMO.
Interior/dashboard is Very dated though! Not that it really matters...
It was £2,300 including the plate in the end. Highly priced, yes - but much better condition than anything else for sale at the time. Well worth it IMO.
Yeah, pedal box is tiny! Didn't really understand what the fuss was about until I was pressing the brake pedal instead of the clutch
Looks good, that! I like Diablo red.
Just been looking on eBay for 266mm calipers. Found a pair of 206cc calipers for £45 - might go for it...
Already got a BMC CDA which isn't too loud, but it's still quite throaty. Are the Raceland/Ecosse ones quite loud?
I love 106 gti's, was one of the potential options before i opted for mx5nesssssss. Gonna keep my eye on this
I opted the other way! Still want an MX5 though, so I'll be watching your thread too

Lol see you on track at FCS and we'll compare projects
yours is the same colour as i wanted too
Haha, yeah! I've actually got a car worthy of going with this year lol
Cheers Joey. Funny enough your Clio was quite similar to mine too so we must share great taste!
The Ecosse only makes a din when you stab the throttle or once you're around and above 5k (best bit) lol
My brakes were off a 206 GTI which fitted straight on under the 14's though they are a bit of a squeeze....paid £70 for calipers with discs and pads with plenty of life left.

Ah yes! Very similar - Great minds and all that
I'm going to go for uprated pads & discs, so might just be worth buying all the parts separately tbh.
Do you have wheel weights on the inside of your wheels? Apparently they might foul the calipers?

Theres not much room to play with, if you opt for rallye steelies you the 266mm kit will fit under them wouldnt advise the flat weights though.I used plain mintex disc's and 1188's on my s1 rallye 16v track car and didnt have any issues with brake fade etc...
Also i was looking and found a supersprint exhaust (thought this was the Kam-racing one at first as they used to sell them) looks more of the look your after

Oft that's mint! Read quite a bit about supersprints. Well, everyone seems to rave about them!
Can't seem to find anywhere that sells them though?
Oh, and with the brakes, could some material not be grinded from the rear of the caliper if there's clearance issues? Or would that just weaken them?
172 Cup
Sound good dont they
and look the part, Kam racing used to sell them but dont anymore, maybe worth seeing if theres any on the 106 forums, i havent seen them in a while to be honest but im sure they are still out thereThe Carriers on the callipers themselves are quite bulky so i dont see why not, maybe worth just having the weights put on the far inner side of the wheel, less hassle then

They're the Kam Racing & Scorpion Pugsport ones. Supersprint ones are more expensive I think!

I'll just keep my eyes peeled for a second hand one tbh! I wouldn't mind any of the three exhausts really, it's just what's available when I can afford one.
Ahh I'll just get some cheap callipers and have a play then! The weights are only small - so it might work. Only one way to find out
Oh really? Fair enough!
I've not really looked into them too much. Might just get a centre section/decat first tbh - I don't mind the standard stealth back box.

Yeah, I think the old SS ones may have been cheaper you know...
IIRC, they did a road and race version, the race on was incredibly loud, popped every gear change on a cammed VTS.
Mixing and matching is the way forward tbh mate. I made my own straight through and welded it onto a Magnex backbox on the Saxo, lols.

They are Kam Racings own exhaust, they look very familiar but have a outward rolled end like the Pugsport and are quieter, not much in them and the supersprint really and they are lighter
Like you said though see whats up forsale nearer the time be easier
If you ever need help mate give me a PM, ive owned Loads of 106 Track and road cars in the past working on them comes as second nature lol
Cheers mate
ORLY? I know their manifolds are quite a bit, assumed the rest was too tbh!
What did you make the straight centre section out of? Just bang Cat out DIY style? lol

Yeah, will do mate - that's kind of you!
That's fair enough! They aren't for everyone.
I would have had a Saxo, as they're so much cheaper - but couldn't deal with the even worse image tbh.

In my VTR, the CAT was in the Manifold, so I had a 4-2-1, and then straight pipe welded each end
It was ghetto, and pretty good performance wise with the mani'!
