Get the akra this week. Decided to get the std manifolds flexi’s replaced and see how loud the akra is. Dependent on volume then likely to get the pure motorsport manifold. Thanks for help

Put this in for sale thread - but probably better here. re r3. I’ve relocated my battery with a view of installing the r3. Having spoken to the vendor I can’t believe it doesn’t come with any mounting plate / fixings to install it, and no instructions. Seems ridiculous for what is a...

Thanks again really helpful I assumed that the y pipe would remove the flexi’s. That’s my issue at the moment. Interested in your thoughts on why the std man is better than the ktec? thanks mike

Cut the akra? Cut the akra? ;) i would lose £50 in offcuts!! thanks for that. Seems like the best option. So you have std manifold - ypipe - cat - akra?

Thanks for the info. So have you cut the akra to accommodate the cat? Struggling to see where the cat has been added ? Or is the cat in the y pipe? Thanks

Many thanks! That will do for me;)

I’m facing this dilemma at the moment. Does the std exhaust fit inside a clio with no back seats? I think I’m likely to get a ktec manifold and swap over the exhausts after mot time

I have to replace my manifold as it’s gone again - just seems a shame not to replace it with something better. Most manifolds seem to remove the cats. Will have a see if there any any that utilise a 200cel cat which will get me through the mot

Contemplating the ktec manifold with akrapovic evolution (removes secondary cat) Has anyone fitted both and passed the mot emissions? Assume it doesn’t stand a chance. If the akra is a given to people Tend to go std manifold to retain the cats in the manifold? Thanks!

Thanks! Think I’m going down the road of improving the ‘enjoyment’ of the car without altering the fundamentals. So intake exhaust as opposed to coilovers. Will update if I get the maxi

Is this the r3 intake or cup? Sounds phenomenal!

Thanks for the reply and certainly echoes some of the questions I have in my own mind. I love the handling of the std clio - feels like it’s really on the edge on track, and you have to really drive it. My ideal would be the same handling traits but at a quicker overall speed. I don’t want to...

I think potentially I will go slicks as will have a set of std alloys with PS4’s. Really like the ps4 on track - just overheated too quickly. Anyone have any experience of RS1 Toyo slicks? There don’t seem to be many reviews on them Thanks for the replies as always guys the forum is great;)

Has the thinking on track day tyres changed since this thread? The latest yoko get really mixed reviews.

Thanks for that. Really Helpful although it’s going to cost me More to get the l Oz!! ;) thanks again!

Thanks for that. It’s difficult to decide which way to go. Definitely want a better offset (mainly for aesthetic) but don’t want the clio to suddenly start handling like a meg and be overly stable. I love how the clios move about under braking / mid corner. I actually love the way it handles at...

I’ve searched for this and can’t find the exact answer I’m after - and possibly will help In the future for others! So basically it seems that I can get oz ultraleggera in 17” by 8” in 55 offset but they have to be black I can get autec wizard in 17” by 7.5” In 45 offset in anthracite Bit...

Hmm don’t seem to have graphite in the correct offset. Also looking the autec wizard Is significantly lighter (6.8kg) and cheaper. Tempted

Many thanks! Hopefully have them on the car in next few weeks

Thanks for the reply - yes would go 8J. Will have another look round but my usual suspects don’t look like they have stock!
