I doubt the compressor would engage anyway with no pressure, there's usually a pressure sensor and if too low it won't turn on to protect the compressor
It's the same engine, some minor differences, inlet on the fn2 is better, fn2 has balance shafts on the oil pump which takes some of the rawness of the ep3 away. Ep3 has a higher VTEC point so you really feel it more.
My fn2 with a few small mods and an ecutek map with 235hp has totally...
I made the change from being a long time owner of 182 and 172s I bought myself an fn2 with LSD, and it's just better in every way than the Clio, apart from fuel consumption.
Tuning potential is far better too, loads more aftermarket parts. Can easily reach 240hp with a few bolt ons and a map...
Yeh you shouldbt need to file anyway, just drill out the old rubber, cut the outer ring with a hacksaw and then the old bush will tap out.

Looks to me like it just pushes in from one side and then you press in the metal tube, similar to ppwerflex but in one part.
I'd just get ppwerflex to be fair, tried and tested for years, I've never heard of flow flex
Same. Admiral with all mods declared was a reasonable price on my civic, it was a complete pain in the arse trying to even get a quote out of sky and Adrian flux so I gave up and just renewed with admiral. They literally charged me nex to nothing per mod anyway, I think it went up by 15 quid.
