Clio V6, Clio 200
I've owned my 200 cup for about 3 weeks now and so far have not bonded well with it. Coming from a previous history of turbo'd cars, Ive found it gutless lowdown and on top of this the throttle is driving me round the bend! Hesitation and kangarooing both from cold and hot. (Ive read this is a common problem from cold, which I could understand and probably live with) but when I drove the car the full length of the M1 from Leeds to London last week (most definately hot by this point) I came off the motorway onto a roundabout and nearly got wiped out by a truck because the car would not bloody pull away cleanly! Its been run on Vpower and Momentum 99 since I got it, so it cant be due to cr*p fuel.
Its going into the dealers this week to sort a loud knocking noise from the rear but I'm guessing they wont find anything wrong with the throttle (as everyone tells me... they all do that sir! ....emissions control, fly by wire throttle etc, etc... yeah but the car is frigging dangerous to drive like this!)
So I've been looking at other options prior to getting rid of the car (sounds drastic but as it is, I hate the car that much). Ive seen KTR do a remap for a couple of hundred quid, but Im also tempted at shelling out for the Cam upgrade and remap. Has anyone else had this done, and would recommend it? I like the sound of a couple more ponies and a bit more torque low down, and if it solves the throttle problem, Id pay double for it!
Remap wise, is there anywhere in the North (yorkshire area) that can do the remap? Id love to use Ktec, but they are in Dorset and Im in Leeds. So not ideal. Id obviously make the trip for the cam upgrade if required.
Cheers
