What best for my clio 172???

[sootyman-2008]

I have a clio 172 iv done some handling upgrades to it which includes urated brembo brakes, coils, and strut braces both front and back, etc

But no engine mods, basically just stuck on trying to decide wat to do???

Can anyone help???

I dunno whether to go for turbo or supercharger, and basically dont know what better for hp gain and torq and how much they will both cost

Any bit of info will help hugely please

Measured a bit and it was 1.3m

Think the main options at moment are Ktec or RSTuning and they start from about £3k+.

Supercharger, then we'll definitely be swapping cars

Aren't ITBs supposed to be quite harsh in power delivery? Probably not the best for a 118k 172.

Supercharger.

Not in the least, I had no trouble running them on a stock engine for 50k

Mate, the 172 is good for at least another 200k

The best thing to do with it is to leave it standard, otherwise you'll have the know-alls on here telling you it's a waste of money / it's going to break / it'll cost a fortune to run / it won't be driveable / it'll be hard to sell on etc...

Don't be bitter Darren

I'm not being bitter. It's fact. You only need to look at the daily "supercharger or turbo" threads to see the same pattern emerging.

I aint worried bout the fuspots i wana have a fun car and enjoy it while im young

And yea that the exhaust system im looking at :approve:
