I own a 206 GTi 180 myself, lightly modified running about 177bhp at the moment (just under 150whp). I wanted to find out how 172/182 owners have found modification on...

Am looking to clean 007s rocker cover a bit as sometimes, especially with this weather it looks a bit grimy. Engine degreasers only degrease, not clean so wondered if anyone had any hints this side of taking a dremel to it...

Hey guys! Just thought it would be interesting to ask clio sport owners a 'hypothetical question'.
If you could which of the following engine mods for the F4R would you go for and why?
Turbocharger
Supercharger
Throttle bodies
Morning all :)
just a quick thread to ask a simple question, this might make for an intersting read, if the answers provided are conclusive and factual, as much as i enjoy opinions everyone has one, so facts only please.
For all you who have had rolling road read outs, what do you actaully...
Hi fellas
After selling my Trophy I bought a 172 cup to build into a sprint and hillclimb car.
I may have posted this elsewhere but cant remember (must be my age!)
Heres the link to my blog.
Any questions post it here!

:D
Does anyone have one of these fitted?
MSW say that they require a much more 'hands-on' fitment, are they that awkward to fit?
Also where do people route the CAF to behind the front bumper? (Bearing in mind i dont want to remove my fr/ns foglight!!)
Thanks in advance
a matched inlet manifold
an exhaust system (burbly not deafening)
/ any other half decent engine mods.... and dont say a re-map! ill get there eventually :D let me just get everything in place first.

As per subject, I'm interested in any standard steering wheel that is no longer being used due to it being burst, rough, falling apart etc as I've had a quote to get a steering wheel recovered to my specification by http://www.gibsontrimming.com/ and would rather have a spare wheel to do this to...

Finally got around to fitting this after having it stashed away for 20 months :oops: What a fecking fag, more of a wrestling match to be honest. Anyway it's now wedged in but I'd appreciate a look at anybody who's got one fitted at the ND as I'm not totally happy with it's position.
Pretty...
Hi all,
Just been on ktec site, and they have matched inlet manifolds on an exchange basis.

Any benefits ? Plus I would of thought you'd have to use your own...

time may be up for #356
just recently got married and possibly 356 may now be a little to small for our needs. The wife has her heart set on me getting a 330CI or 330 convertible, cos it looks "posh", and i was thinking of going for a 230 R26.
BUT....... the question I want to throw out there...
ive just been on the k tech website and they now have a low presure turbo kit for all 182s, and they will take it to rs tuning in leeds for a custom remap (3 hours worth)it all cost around the 3k mark, on their graph is says its putting out 212 bhp and about 200 ib ft so that would put its power...
I've had this problem a few times on my Trophy now:
Sometimes when I drive it hard, and especially after hard braking, the throttle seems to stick - the revs will stay high even if I put the clutch in, and will even rise some times if I put the car in neutral. Also, I seem to be down on power...
After my recent trip to the Ring in my Trophy I felt the car was lacking outright power which is no surprise as I used to track and ring an E39 M5. I bought the car with the intention of using it as a daily hack but a have really grown fond of it especially it's capability on track.
I now need...

Hi everyone,
It's been a while since I've been an active member here but this place is still at the top of my bookmarks list! :D I don't have a computer and so I've been visiting here from my phone or occasionally borrowing my sister' laptop. It's a little harder to post here using my Nokia...
There is a thread over on CS about those £160 electric superchargers on ebay.
Basically everyone is saying they are a load of crap, i agree they do sound like a load of crap and i wouldnt waste my money on one but no one on CS has actually purchased one and used it on their car so how can they...
