Very nice exhaust system.
From back to back visit @ dyno:
I've got +5 bhp peak power,+0,5 Nm peak power also.In the whole rpm range car is better(+2-3 bhp and 0,3-0,4 NM) And it will give more as the programm needs to be refixed cause it is running lean now !
The sound that it produces is not at all boomy.You can travel on national roads without having any trouble.Nice fitment also.
Really pleased with the system.

There have been a few threads on here about the RS192 now, do a search as there were a couple of guys that have them now

Hey guys,
Bought the RS192 cat back system a few months back with the group buy on here. The quality overall is pretty good and the Scorpion Logo looks sweet on the tailpipes. Seem to remember a few people had issues with the tailpipes not sitting perfectly central in the cutouts (not sure if it was due to dodgy exhaust, worn exhaust mounts or what), think maybe one guy sent his back for a replacement which he got pretty quickly. You’ll have to search for the full story.
Sound wise its spot on for what I wanted, nice low deep rumble that just gets better the more you gun it. Absolutely fine for town driving or motorway use, quite an increase in the sound at 80mph which I think most Clios seem to have at that speed for some reason?, even then its not loud enough to be annoying.
Definite increase in power was noticeable, in 3rd and 4th gear especially, not so sure about the +10bhp gains the website states though…
Got round to purchasing the decat pipe from the RS192 website and had it fitted by the JMS guys on Friday, sound wise the system got even better. Still easily drivable about town without sounding like a jet fighter, but if you do give it the beans people WILL turn their heads to look
The 80mph resonance issue on the motorway is a lot more pronounced with the decat fitted, I reckon you can easily live with it if it’s you + radio or a mate, if it’s you + girlfriend and kid in the back then you may want to reconsider...
System seemed to fit together pretty well and looked neat and tidy underneath and, aside from an unrelated lambda sensor issue fitting seemed to go pretty smoothly.
Had the decat and group N map done at the same time so its difficult to say the power increase just for the decat. I can say that with both these mods the difference is immense; car just keeps pulling and pulling, very much worth doing
Overall I really rate it, seems to give good gains without being to chavtastic loud

There you are mate! Yeah the fitment was excellent between the parts, very easy & painless to put together! If your over our way again or come to one of the local meets (Staines on Thursday
) I'd love to go for a ride to see what its like!
I did a little fitment guide for this exhaust. have a look here:

Sounds like my cup of tea this system, I dont want the yozza sound, yozza sounds a little bit chavi alonso to me. I actually found their website today and they seem alright. Oh and coincidentally I checked the condition of my exhausts today and theres plenty of rust appearing at the joints of the pipes. I cant wait till they fall off lol. Im getting my 182 re-mapped this week by JMS, will the exhaust fitment affect my re-map in any way?
Doesn't make a difference with the RS Tuner remaps, they are a generic drag-and-drop performance map, ideally suited for basic changes you might make to the car such as filter/exhaust etc & can be carried either before or after fitting them.
Your right when it comes to custom maps such as RS Tuning in leeds (not to be confused with the RSTuner). When your paying that sort of money for a custom map you want to ensure that everything you want to do to the car is done first.
