I know couple of people on here have had it done? Supposed to improve driveablility due to the shit casting on the original inlets?

Obviously done in conjunction with a map. Clio needs a bit more low down torque.

sounds like internet bullshit dreamt up on cliosport.net then filtered round the internet as wonderous.

i would say it probably helps but not to any extent that you will notice, and i doubt it will be restricting low down torque anyway would help up the top

No, please dont start withyour nonsense.

matched inlets and a map improve the driveability no end, I'm asking on here because you tend to get a better response than you would on a Clio website

ive had them done on my clio OJ. there is a noticable difference. the ports in the inlet are smaller than the head ports so they get matched out to the same diameter. best mod you can do. dont listen to steve

when you have the inlets done, its like having the car mapped. that sort of noticable if you get me.
definatley worth it, and the 197 inlet is better too!!

ITBs tbh. Not pissing about 'matching ports'

Youll be restricted by the valves and the rest of the inlet system anyway.

What is it with Citroën/renault owners been obsessed with shit like this. You'll be polishing your TB next
