What should I upgrade ?

[Adambrown]

Hey guys I'm un sure on what I should buy its between one of 2 things

No.1 it's an internal upgrade Im considering having the optional factory Sata nav kit installed in my car but I don't know how it would work

Or

No.2 It's an exeternal upgrade I'm want the 200 cup spoiler but I don't know if I need a new boot lid or what I need

Can some one help explain ???

bigger, better wheels or coilovers ect

get rid of the arch gaps

If you're using it as a taxi I'd maybe consider a holder for your business cards, or perhaps some seat covers incase a passenger vomits.

I am feeling the spoiler

 

[Harpham]

Needs a slammin'.

 

[Adambrown]

It does need lowwered big style

 

[Eddie.]

Anything to lose the archgap, has potential to look mint if it gets a good slamming!

Just buy an after market SatNav, much cheaper FTW! Lows & Spoiler sound good.

Does anyone know if I just whip the old spoiler off and put the new one or what ? X

I like the black/white thing going on ... however, those wheels are amazingly awful. Change them first !

Cup spoiler (that is the one they designed backwards, right?) looks awful even on the RS.

your spoiler is bonded onto the roof so you would probably need a lot of paint work done when yours is removed! thats if the boot lid is similar altho i think its different as you cant fit a GT spoiler onto a normal 197/200 iirc.

id get a set of coilovers and spacers

 

[Matt W]

Taxi?

 

[Martin_172]

you got ur MAF sensor unpluged yet? lol

 

[GiT]

This makes me cry

 

[Martin_172]

This makes me cry

beause it does 60mpg with more torque than you?

 

[GiT]

LOL... it's the Honkey "B. A. Baracus" look I think. Not for me at all. And don't pick on my torque you lol

 

[Martin_172]

LOL!!!

haha sorry its about all we have going for us is the torque and MPG!

suppose you do have 20% more than a 197 under 3k rpm its not all that bad!!

 

[GiT]

Cannot whack a bit of torque... 306 DT I had before the Clio had ooodles and I do miss it.

 

[Martin_172]

i like getting into mine when ive been using the 172 for a few days, makes you a lazy driver though, the GT's have about 185lbft @ 2000rpm from memory and i rarely ever go above 2000rpm even when making decent pace!

Think adams above has a good chunk over 200lbft too its been mapped

 

[GiT]

Aye, does make for epic fun - but a busy left hand if shooting through the gears.

But - for that car... Lose the black on the bonnet/bumper top... fill the arches with nice big juicy wheels, maybe the new raider ones

Cup Spoiler.

Done.

 

[Martin_172]

lol hes just had the all the black done and wheels fitted!!

 

[GiT]

Oh...


...awkward moment 2011. lol

 

[Adambrown]

Yeah mate a 2k it flys lol So what's all this talk MAF sensor and how do I busy It off ?

 

[Adambrown]

Lol tell me about it, It needs new tyres lol and I want new alloys and I want to spend a fortune lOl

 

[GiT]

Lol tell me about it, It needs new tyres lol and I want new alloys and I want to spend a fortune lOl

This'll be good then... Renault 18" and 45 rubber. Fill them arches...

 

[Martin_172]

Yeah mate a 2k it flys lol So what's all this talk MAF sensor and how do I busy It off ?

sensor directly after the airbox, unplug the connector from it, take it out a blast and enjoy much more power under 2k, with quicker spool up and more smoke lol

 

[Adambrown]

I will look into pulling it off tomorrow
