Heres a wee vid of me racing my mates Clio 182 at crail on sunday, only lost my a tenth of a sec 
My quickest time of the day was a 15.9 which i'm well chuffed with as it was my first ever go  
The wifes nagging me here to tell yous all that she done a 16.08 on her first ever try 
only managed 7 runs as it was busy as fook with a bit more practice I should get it down a bit
hope this link works

oops 
fixed now 
Only mods are a 4-2-1 manifold, decat and single box magnex and a dodgy cone filter lol
Been offered a ported and polished throttle body unused for £40 but no sure if they give any gains???

doubt youd see gains from that, ive just got exhaust with de-cat all powerflow, and pipecross cone, going to get a pipecross viper soon and then a 4-2-1 manifold .

Rob - you'll find that the 4-2-1 is good for low/mid range but looses out on top end
Pick - So I heard, mine is only a near standard 1.6 mind

isnt the car way too low at the back 
You'd be loosing heaps on front end traction with it like that...... on the launch.

has the other one got kms ?
And what you stated from your mods earlier, have you thought about a enclosed filter, as ive been told i was getting shit 60ft times because i have an open one and its just sucking in hot air for a few hundred yards..

i had a raceland and it was crap the filter that came with it ...
Id go for a viper personally, good foam filter and fully sealed unit.
Steve i ran pretty much the same as eck with the same mods apart from manifold, dont think the weather was too good for it tbh..
