Tree's Black clio 200.
Discussion
Hi all, on clio200.net but new on here so thought i would pop it on here too 
First of all I wanted I a bit more noise so decided to chop out the centre silencer, lovely noise, pretty cheap and the flat spot is easy to get used to.
The throttle response felt a little sluggish an kept coming across the sprintbooster which seemed to get good reviews for this problem, had a chat with chris197 as I was a bit late for the group buy but Chris helped me out. Great product! Always on green but switch to red when I fancy a bit more response. Feels like its broken when its switched off!
Had a look at the air filter and its was gross, so kept an eye out and an ITG came up in the for sale thread so thought I may aswell, seems to breath a little better.
Next I look for a 64mm throttle body, found one on eBay an was the only one to bid so a good price.
Was prepared for the whole high revs situation but as son as I turned it on the revs settle at a steady 800rpm so happy with that. For some reason my mpg has increased so can't complain. Complements the ITG going by the bum dyno.

Been wanting to change the looks a bit and go for something different. Couldn't sleep one night so had a little look on here on came across some white cup racer speedlines from CL10. Got them on and think they look great.

Also decoded to put some more white in so got a couple of cans of plasti dip for the diffuser.

Since this i have taken the plasti dip off as it was getting a bit tatty and could of done with another can or two as it wasnt quite thick enough and the black was showing through. once the better weather comes I will re do it along wiht the front blade and wing mirror caps.
Number plates were looking a bit tatty so thought I would go for some pressed plates which look much fresher!

Going to be going on track with it this year so thought I would addd this to further the white theme.

Ktech induction kit came up of for sale so thought it would be rude not to. Fitted it today and my god the noise. It dawned on me that I've never been in a car with an induction kit so didn't know what to expect. Mrs was in the car so did go mad but the noise is immense. Such a deep roar when you put your foot down. Well happy!
Productive weekend, with the help of Edster we fitted the H&R springs. Will get some pictures up as I'm ashamed of how dirty she is right now!
On another note ( I expect some slating for this!) a mate of mine sent me this

and it gave me an idea. I wanted to take out the T-piece to the resonator box. Sooo it resulted in this...

been wanting a little more noise an some pops etc, K-Tech cat back with decat came up so though it would be rude not to. Got it fitted today by my local garage for £50 so not too bad an it sounds awesome. Next step will be a short journey to ktech for a remap
So after my service with Dan @SJM my discs seem to be shot. So I have invested in some MTEC drilled and grooved front and rear discs, Mintex m1144 pads on the front and some standerd Pagid pads for the rear, Hel braided lines and some Motul RBF600 fluid.

Continued.
Got the discs and pads fitted today with the help of a mate, will have to do the fluid and hoses this week sometime. My god it's like throwing an anchor out the window! Really happy with them.
Least I will be able to feel some difference with the hoses and fluid too.
Excusse the dirty wheels!

Took a trip to Ktec today for a remap. I'm pretty happy with the results.
Andy said I had a pretty strong engine to begin with, asked if I drove it hard which seems to of paid off.
Dyno run by Etree200, on Flickr
