inlet

Looking at replacing my standard air-box. Everyone seems to say ITG maxogen kit is the best but its nearly £400 so I was thinking would it be better to pay the extra and get the JMS inlet manifold ?? Or ... do I just keep the standard air-box as the above two will not produce that much of a...

The standard air box seems to have two inlets for air. One with a cold air feed pipe that disappears somewhere underneath the nearside headlamp and another inlet without any cold air feed. Is this right ? Still having trouble with my T :(

Many of you may have noticed I have been posting alot of "lack of power" and problems with my trophy topics. Recently I have been having trouble with performance from my T. Last night I noticed a fairly loud noise coming from the engine bay when the ignition was on. I poped the bonnet and...

For Sale. Scorpion RS192 Exhaust System (Cat Back). The system has been fitted to my Trophy from new for 2 years (approx. 10,000 miles). The centre section is 6 months old as it was replaced under warranty. Very good fitment, however, the centre section/back box join is a tight fit as this is...

well i say at it again,even though this is my first experience of some rather questionable service standards. I took my T to a local Renualt dealer for pure convenience on my part i must add, just to finish off the last parts of a service. on returning to pick up the T and with paperwork and...

Well even after nearly 6 years of ownership this little pocket rocket still surprises me. I know how quick it is on a B road, but in a straight line i always thought it slightly underpowered to take on the great and good of Germany's finest but boy was I wrong. 100 octane racing fuel on board...

Now for sale as my friend can’t get insured on the 182 with it all fitted lol … We’re looking to sell the whole lot in one go, so everything that has been changed/adapted we'll give the purchaser - essentially creating a plug & play installation. From memory, this should include the following...

My trophy has gone in for its major service. It went to a garage rather than Renault them selves due to it costing nearly 500 pounds more at Renault. My trophy was having everything changed that was on the Renault major service check list and genuine Renault parts however i had a small leak of...

Hi all, Have had 2 services since I owned the T on 24k and 35k using 5W40 Elf oil. After having the last oil change the car has now covered 37k and is already low on oil. Not sure if it has been topped up fully but imagine it would have been. Car is used 5 days a week for 60 mile commute...

Pick my car up from jamsport saturday after having ported and matched inlet, custom remap, whiteline rear arb, pagid front discs, ferodo ds2500 front pads, goodridge braided brake hoses all round and 5.1 brake fluid so will let you all know the results fingers crossed they will be good :lol:

Hi i have always said on all my cars i have owned if engine required major repair i.e. piston bent valve etc.. I would put uprated internals in and bolt a turbo on (if only it was that easy:-)) Just woundered wat peoples views are on turbo trophy? (Just to add there is nothing wrong with the...

What is a trophy worth in bits? The car in question is completely standard with engine failure Dampers are fine, one wheel has a kerb mark that I can see and the mileage is 65-70k miles. I'm informed the gearbox is fine and the recaro's are in mint condition, any help is appreciated

Just about to buy a matched inlet manifold and was told AP Developments was the place to go, over angel works and k-tec. Anyone got their matched inlets or heard anything about them? Chears.

http://www.angel-works.co.uk/product_2ltrinlet.php Not particularly just the Angel-works ones(although they do seem better value than say K-Tec) but the matched inlet manifold in general? anyone on here have one fitted?

Looking to sell my wife's F1 as she needs to travel further to work and needs something a bit more economical to do a few miles in, really pains me to sell it as its such a capable hot hatch. Its a 2006/06 and has just turned 47k this week. Has full service history and is mot'd and taxed for 6...

Hi guys, my Trophy currently has uprated Brembo brakes/pads and full stainless steel exhaust system. I have a few hundred pound to spend on the car and as it is due it's MOT in October I was considering getting remap done at the same time. I have spoken to a guy called Paul whom I believe...

Exhaust manifold heat reduction options - Exhaust insulant wrap - ceramic paint coating has anyone got one of these options? or both!? The idea is that the heat from the exhaust manifold increases performance though various pathways which i wont explain now decreases. by insuring the...

Well after a day with a MR2 forum group at Trouqe of the devil it would appear I've come up alittle shy :( Never mind I had a feeling 182 was going to be abit illusive. Just for comparison has anyone else been dynoed recently and feel like sharing?

My Trophy - #433 **Warning essay content** Having now owned the Trophy for 6 weeks & 3k miles, i thought i had better put a little thread up about it ... Basically, since October last year, id been rolling around in a Golf Gti Edition 30, which really wasnt to my taste & did shoddy mpg...

Here we go.. My original plan was to buy a 182 and upgrade the seats, suspension and wheels. But when I worked it out it was slightly cheaper to go all out and buy a Trophy. Number 214/500 42k Miles, FSH, MOT, Tax, VERY good bodywork for the milage, Ran smoothley, and a decent price. Yesss...

Just bought this off ebay but its kinda tipped the scales, financially. So i've decided to sell. Its from an s1 lotus elise, which uses the same AB65 box as the clio. Its covered 2000miles and the filter has just been cleaned. I just want to make some money back on it so £200 posted. These are...
