You could get a second hand miltek for that money
 
Right is this the same make as the one i posted before
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DIRENZA-RENAULT-CLIO-197-2-0-16V-SPORT-STAINLESS-STEEL-CAT-BACK-EXHAUST-SYSTEM/161370663509?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid=222007&algo=SIC.MBE&ao=2&asc=43781&meid=9788fa7caf40446194bf7da8986db546&pid=100005&rk=3&rkt=6&sd=120574129549

This one is Direnza the other was Toyosport (never heard of them) but look the same to me
anyone got any reviews ?
for £300 may go for one

Dont do it. Really. IMO.

Wait until you need to and get a Scorpion, Milltek or Cobra etc

Or wait for something of a known 'quality'; second-hand.

Good luck !

On a 'normal' (i.e. non-heavily-tuned car) I don't see why not. People said the Toyosports manifolds were rubbish, but plenty of people, myself included, had no problem with them. Worth a punt for the money I think.

Or maybe wait until the next bank holiday as I know Demon Tweeks had some pretty good discounts on systems last year.
I think either RenaultSportClub.co.uk or cliosport.net have ongoing discounts with Scorpion and that would be your best bet for a non-resonated system.

Thanks guy's
i have searched the internet looking for reviews for the clio but can't find any
found some from other marques with mixed reports including some from miltek,scorpion (crap welds,poor fit etc)
not going for cobra as i had one on an impreza which lost bhp replaced with a blitz nur spec r
going to give it a couple of weeks to see if anything turns up if not going to bite the bullet & buy the direnza or toyosport
 
Quite a few of us on here have the Milltek/Scorpion on our Clios, and apart from some small fitment niggles, I think it's fair to say we're all pretty pleased with them.

I'm thinking along these lines too, just needs someone to take a punt first so it's no longer an unknown...

Bite the bullet and buy a scorpion exhaust or something and then get a Toyosport manifold. I remember there being someone who put a Direnza manifold on their car and lost almost 20bhp lol god knows what a full system would do.

I'm sure I read the Direnza and Toyosport manifolds are practically the same???
 
Price has been reduced to £269 or best offer. Has to be worth a punt at that price.
