RS2 inlet

I was very impressed with the RS2 after being a passenger in Tom's car.
If I hadn't sold my 172 it would have been the next mod.
It's very good value for money IMHO

I'm having 428's fitted and mapped with the RS2 soon. As far as I know they tested C&B cams but the results where never published or conclusive.
As for 428's, I have no idea what power it will produce. I believe it's not as easy as saying cam bhp plus rs2 bhp equals so and so. Hopefully I'm wrong and make way over 200 bhp!

what is it?
Will be interesting to see your results mate.
If the RS2 flows similer to TB's then should surely be touching 200 peak
Impressed with the smoothness and driveability or a noticeable increase in power?

dont 428 cams make near enough 190 on there own with a decent map , its a lot of money to pay for not a lot of bhp IMO (rs2 , jenveys) , thats just my oppinion as i am sure there are plenty of people who would disagree , i am going to bolt a supercharger on mine eventually when a decent priced one pops up 2nd hand , or may just get some cam's in the car and get it mapped !! as almost 2k for 200bhp or £500-£700 for 190bhp , jenveys are worth doing if you have a forged lump IMO
Had my RS-2 for just over a year now, one of the best purchases for the car! And the best performancewise!
NA tuning - a man´s choice
btw: a proper sc conversion is a bit more than bolt on and go!
i know mate , there are 3 of us in gloucester so far running rotrex charger kit's , all between 240-280bhp , that seems like a better jump of power for me , i could justify spending the cash on that as thats almost a 100bhp increase , 255bhp would be a nice power gain personally without stressing the engine to much , just me personally i couldn't justify buying jenvey's again for such a small jump in power !!

had mine on for a bit now. and its the best mod for a clio. looked in to all of it. 198bhp mine run after mapping. and it pulls and pulls. 42mpg running steady. best of both worlds.
RB 182
What mods and where was it mapped?

yes mate. need to get and write up about the car and the rs2. just needs a few more bits and it will be ready. ill put all the print outs up in that.
Ollie's Silver Cup
It is this; Built and available from JMS Automotive.
A replacement intake manifold for the 172/182 F4R. Allows for much better performance than the original factory setup.
Looks awesome too

It´s possible to install the RS2 manifold on the 172 Ph1?
Ollie's Silver Cup
Yep, there's ph1 kits as far as I'm aware
RB 182
There must be more people with RR results by now? 20 odd kits were sold after all...

Many Things
I posted a thread about this with no response.
Either the owners are too busy having fun with their cars, they haven't been mapped yet or the results aren't what was expected and they're too disappointed to post.
I doubt its the latter though they sound awesome

None :(
I have the RS2, check my project thread for a track video and RR results. (Track video - first few times on track and wasn't trying to be a hero).
I need to go back to Leeds really to get another RR result, as Tom told me when he fitted the RS2, the throttle body wasn't 100% in-line, hence the drop at 6.5k.
I wanted to go ITB, but as it's my daily and i really don't know much about engines etc i wanted something i could rely on. I would love a go, or a ride in a SC clio, wow that must be great!!!

Clio 172 RS2
Is yours on yet with the cams?
Lol! Your a bit of a 'billy' really, anyway as someone has said duration is better than a short peak of torque like ITB's offer.
Have you ever driven one also? Think you'll find that there's a few people on here that have ITB'd cars and have commented on how well the power is delivered, maybe you should start experiencing stuff before slating it instead of listening to some ex sandwich packer which thinks he's so amazing!
