question is, do I want the end of the air feed to tatally engulf the blue filter, or do i want to glue or bond the air...
Ok, so how many people here have had/driven both the trophy and 172's and 182's? to those of you that have I was just wondering how much better you would say the handaling is on the trophys then other clio sports.
Also how hard is the suspension as i have had a few ppl say that it is very...

So I took my trophy down to Mark fish motorsport today for its 24K service and a geometry check. he phoned me up an hour ago and reported a 3/4 of a degree difference in camber angles between each side, so im glad I asked him to check this.
This is the more worrying problem with my car...
Wanna get no.31 on the RR sometime to check whats actually coming outta the wheels. Thought the Trophy would be a bit nippier but it could just be the way im driving it coming from driving a diesel for the last 3 years! Got a Orbisound and IK so expecting 190 at the wheels? Or am I in dream land?
Im going to GDI in a few weeks if all goes to plan for Inlet matching + Group N ECU + ITG filter
Iv just got a Decat pipe to go along with the Milltek system i have 8) will sound superb!
im hoping for some good gains with the the mods added as the trophy looks awsome already im spending a...
I was very excited to read about the new Japanese Civic type R. Apart from a boring 4 door saloon body, the prospect of 225 PS, 8,400 rev limit, reasonable torque, Brembo 4 pot callipers, 18" lightweight rims, gear type LSD, proper independent rear suspension etc was very tempting. Still not a...
Hello, just wondering, as I have no experience of the clio sport range on how easy it is to tune the trophy or a basic 182 to 200hp? I am a believer in keeping rare, unique cars as standard as possible so subtle mods would be preffered! What have other members done?
Cheers this is my...
Coming up for my 24K service and just wanted to know where people near me went. I live near stansted.
All I seem to hear is ren-tech, ren-tech, but there is no way im going to portsmoth to service my car! well maybe lol
Cheers
Ive just had a reply from Ben about the exhaust they are develooping and this is what he had to say:-
Hello Michael,
The exhaust is indeed something that is very special, however the custom
components are expensive and rather fancy.
Cost will be in the region of £1000-£1200, yet it...
Hi guys/gals
Looking at getting myself a group N ecu fitted as i have just got a milltek + performance filter want to get the Group N to bring it all together to get a nice little gain will also have the inlet matched too in time.
Just wanted to see if anyone can shed some light and tell...
Hi Guys
I'm going down to France later this year, so I thought I'd ask Orbisoud how much one of their exhausts costs to collect from the factory gates. This is their reply;
hello,
price line complete racing : 1006 euros ht.
soft : 1087 euros ht.
best...

:shock:
can u guys give me any ideas what to modify...... not costly and not...
Took my Trophy up to Ben R's place on Wednesday along with a couple of mates and am staggered by the difference to my car.
Mid range has improved dramatically and the torque is much more like a Williams now.
If anyone wants a go in my car let me know?
:D
Quick update on this one:
- ITG Panel Filter done
- Cold Air Feed & Removal of acoustic valve (this to be followed by an ITG Maxogen at some point)
- Better Horn (something a kin to an alpine bus) bought, about to be fitted- Lightweight & Strong racing wheels – ET45, 15†or...
Has anybody been infected with the petrol problem? Just been listhening to the news, said i no. :lol:
Should think most people will be using V-Power from shell and wont have been affected. Thousands of people have had problems mainly using Morrisons and Tescos petrol. Now we all know why it...
On behalf of a mate....
Unfortunatly i have had to grow up and sell the cup to make way for my first child!!! So here it is my cup that i have spent an absolute fortune on. First the Spec

Has anyone remapped their trophy?, anyone got a group n ecu?
And if so how do you rate it, is it worth it etc..
Will it damage your engine / completely invalidate the warrenty
Any info would be great :?:
I'm thinking of doing it and I know you block off the small pipe going to the block, but how have people blocked off the pipe? I don't really want to go shoving chewing gum down the pipe :oops: I'm guessing some kind of plug with maybe a jubilee clip to hold it into place?
05/05 6,300m.
Bought Aug 06, now the second owner.
Got used to the 'tomato' now, handling is out of this world on my way to work down wet, greasy b roads.
Treated it too, ITG, boot net & shelf (bloody great) spare turini, silvervisions, soon to have wiper arm mod & lube & filter change.
Did my first trackday yesterday and i have to say that i enjoyed it even more than i expected too so i am counting the days down to the next one. I do have a few questions though for you guys that have done more than one and have upgraded their cars.
My trophy is standard and i thought the...
when i'm at a junction holding the revs at say 1500 it seems to pulse from 1500 - 2000rpm, and im sure that its not a jittery leg :lol: ?
is this me or is the Trophy taking over!
Seems i'm always banging on with probs anyone any ideas with this?
From cold can pull off but there is a total lack of power tiil it warms a little, plenty of revs but wiill just not move. Has only just started, admittedly have still only done 2k (i know shame on me)
Sorry no idea what...
Just took some new pics today with my cam phone. Hope you like em.
If it could cook and clean, I'd marry it.
Mods so far:
ITG Maxogen and 75mm intake feed.
Group N ECU
2.5 inch cat-back exhaust with high flow cat
Buddy Club P1 17x7 rims with Dunlop SP Sport Maxx tyres...
As a newbie on here ive currently got a Lotus Exige S1 as a weekend toy and an Alfa Romeo 156 as my daily driver but am thinking of ditching it for a 182 or Trophy but was just wondering how comfortable a Trophy would be doing 20k miles a year up and down motorways?
