My engine is soon to be coming out, so would be a good time to replace the manifold to a decat version if I was ever going to do it. From a bit of research I would need the thing itself (£230) plus a dog bone mount (£120), fitting should be free as a manifold would need fitting in the current...

I am in Coventry and ended up down south for mine, not much local other than the generic mappers, if you want it done properly RS is probably best for you.

sounds like a good idea! I will be able to take apart the engine no issues, putting it back together is the hard bit haha I am gutted as I bought the car in this situation by the look of it, however if they give me a strong 200 engine with the cams added it will be an awesome transition from a...

Just an update on this, I am going to change the engine. Air seems to be getting past piston 1. I have been advised the pulley fitted to my car is not correct, and at some point in its life it may have had a cambelt snap and then repaired badly, although the pulley could have come from Renault...

mine have been fitted but not got the car back yet due to other issues with it, cant wait to have it back

cheers pal, could be the one then (Y)

Cheers Gez, I am going down to the garage next week to do some car courtesy car swaps, I was going to discuss the option of just ripping the engine out. That gives me a good idea on cost didn't realise they were so cheap, seems a little cost for the engine?

The car is in ktec, they haven't shown me the graph, they said it was around 180, but its in for new cams and on the before run it made the low power and they noticed something was not right. It made in order 100 180 180 100

It didn't feel right from the day I got it back, but I was assured it was all OK, but I knew something was not correct so it wasn't driven for long, probably 2 weeks but driven very easy. The issue I had was the garage were blaming a sensor being out, and guaranteed me the timing was correct...

I have had some feedback and compression is low on all 4, but a lot lower on 1 and 4... The current view is that at some point in its life its potentially had a cambelt snap and its not been rebuilt very well. Scope didnt show anything obvious so the next step is to remove the head and test the...

it ran 180 on the dyno when they noticed the missfire. I would hope it nothing too bad if it made that power? what sort of prices do engines sell for now, is it cheaper to replace than fix as Angel did?

yeah that's what is going through my head now... I will wait for the compression test and bore scope results and hope for the best

well that's the positive news I wanted... its only a small missfire, I didnt even notice it until they plugged it on the system, hope its nothing too bad then : /

its not a certain yet.. but i had some issues with the timing after cambelt was changed. This was corrected and was only a tooth out. But had it on a dyno and it was underpowered and shown a missfire, and after the garage have checked all the basic options its now going to have a compression...

Looking to know roughly how long this took so I can estimate the cost, I may have a bent valve that would need changing...

14:00 mate I should be there providing weather is all ok!

check RS UK I just posted a link

there is a huge clio meet sunday at asda in MK, cliosport UK organising it?

The merchandise and sign on fee must generate some form of income then, its hard to have a company registered with no value?

Good to see more coming about though, Badbuzz was talking about a midlands meet soon potentially MK then...
