got the car pickup up yesterday to get the engine out. went down to the garage today and they have more or less finished taken it out :D had a bit of worry as i noticed the crank pulley was loose, got on the phone to mr hill and he put my mind at rest :D pulley basicly undone itself as the belt was caught and could'nt turn. gonna get the pulleys swapped over with the ones iv got on the 1.8 at the mo as a few looked a little battered. getting my car in tomorrow at 9.00am and figers crossed should be ready by friday. then on to santa pod week later to test it :D ( sorry about size of pics)

whats peoples opinon on mongoose exhust systems, they any good or could i get better? it banged around like hell on my old car which tended to piss me off which is another reason why i thought it was a scorpion. i have to put it on for now as the std exh system ive got is ****ed but need to know what to do in the future?

Could also be a BB system as they are identical

the worst thing with the clio is the gey aux belt set up, the 19's is far superior, meganes is better for quickness again.

Mongoose systems are one of the best imho, i had a mongoose s/s system on my old citroen axgt and it was the dogs ! very nice to fit and sounded muchos coolio 8)

My Mongoose was banging like crazy until I changed the exhaust rubbers for poly ones from Rally Design. No problems now.
