Throttle Bodied Clio Vs Subaru Impreza Sti Spec C @ Pod

[stevo69666]

i have a 182 clio and fancied dth throttle bodies now i def want then if they make that much difference to an already quick car

[buffalo182]

Firstly its a drag strip strip so no moaning about which car beats what around a corner. (Its a clio btw)

Secondly that is not a Spec C!!!

I have owned BOTH an 05 plate 182 and 03 Blobeye Sti so know full well what each car is capable of.

the 182 beats any standard WRX whether it be straight line or round the twisties. However nothing but a turbo'd clio would beat a scoob sti standard or modified.

my mate has a bodied and 172 with matched inlet and map and is running around 220BHP so i know

[Shima17]

Anyone can drive a fast car in a striaght line. Get a good driver in a clio then we'll see who wins...

[garyboyt]

looks like normal wrx.

[fradista17]

Great car, great run! :-)

[HarrisPerformance]

very cool vid, nice little road rocket!!

[adokenk3nnbasil]

STI all daa way

[ScoobyDoo69er]

Very fast Clio, but the Subaru left a bit after the Clio and still won.. :)

[TR33BORE95]

im not sure who won, because there is a coned area at the end, im confused who one haha :S

[aTTAkz]

Clio got a major jump and still lost.

[vikoduran]

damn! that's a fast clio!!! nice work man!!!

[roche1234567]

nice movie

[XXdriver2000XX]

That was a bad launch from the scooby

[mifo214]

its definatly not a spec c.

its a wrx, you can tell from the front bumper.

im 99.9% sure they never made a red spec c.

hes just put sti gold rims on a wrx.

still, the clio is quick!

[Neil82Cup]

That is a Spec C, they did make them in red I was looking at one at the auctions in Japan last week (was tempted to buy it)

[mifo214]

yes your're right it is a spec c!!

[mifo214]

@mifo214

What are the odds? I now own a red spec c !!! Didnt know what I was talking about 3 years ago! LMAO

[mifo214]

@mifo214 mine runs 12.47 with aprox 350bhp.

[HypoCoffeeLover]

Scoobys need like a dsg close ratio auto, so theres no turbo lagg ;D,

[richyg1979]

it is a spec c he just messed up on the launch. spend the same modding the sti as hes spent on the clio and it would do 11sec 1/4.

[Msouth]

But the clio only costs a 30th of what the Spec C does in the first place and is fwd and n/a so not really a fair comparison!!

[wolffy2008]

Clio all the way!!

[scoobystu555]

thats nt a pec c noway thats just a bog standard wrx

[Msouth]

no read the title again...it's a spec C Unless impreza owners have stooped so low as to have fake spec c badges on a wrx....which is suspiciously fast..

[scoobystu555]

im srry mate i no my scoobys and that deff isnt a spec c. for a start they only do it in black white and blue and it comes with a big spoiler color coded side skirts and is a hell of alot quicker than that

[satan1244]

wat bhp is that clio producin then if it is turboed?

[cliolord]

do you know how fast the clio is LOL

[satan1244]

not very lol clios are crap unless really tuned, i had a rover 200 vi and i cained many clio sports 192s and i had 150 bhp lol so i dnt thinks a 192 bhp clio wud beat a 320 bhp spec c.

[Msouth]

My old clio in this vid was 220 bhp / 880kgs....best quarter mile was 13.1@108mph on road tyres

[RUFNEK20]

LMAO!!!!!!!!

[meggerman]

what a spak you are rove 200vi is cack slow all round. whats a clio 192 ?

moron.

[ren197]

Clio 192 thats a new un to me lol, satan get ya facts right before trying to insult

[cliolord]

Clio 192 thats a new un to me lol, satan get ya facts right before trying to insult....mate, its a Clio 197 ;)

[HoeBlogggs]

As much as id love to say this was true, its utter bollocks. A 200vi will get raped by a standard 197. Drop a 2l T series in it however and the game soon changes...

[SamTheTwoCan]

@satan1244

firstly, there is no such thing as a Clio 192, so yes, your rover beat the imaginary car you saw!

[ukjamesbaker]

@SamTheTwoCan

And real car enthusiasts care about cornering ability more than straight line speed, where any clio sport will easily outrun a bloody rover 200!

I also really doubt a 150bhp car weighing 1080kg will beat a 180bhp car also weighing 1080kg when both are front wheel drive as well.

[goldsgym1244]

@SamTheTwoCan he means the 197, and yes it did as it was my car he was in! so stfu

[smitmk3]

v nice start m8, lost it changin to 4th gear tho :-( very impressive none the less

[jackall06]

hahahahhaha very niceeee video :)

[simplenoise]

driver is a loser. that machine can produce more.

[smithye]

this aint even a sti its a wrx wiv sti wheels

[cliolord]

Sure, a WRX would do a 13.2. THERE ARE SOME REAL IDIOTS ON HERE FOR SURE

[Msouth]

yup it's up there^

[PAULABCDEFG12]

Well thats definitly enough isn't it! For such a light car. Have you got any vids of you vs a honda integra type R?

[Msouth]

Yes...it's 900 kgs so bit lighter than the renaultsport models. It has circa 220 bhp with ITB's, cams, modified megane head & exhaust/de-cat.

[PAULABCDEFG12]

So this is a 1996 clio 1.8 16v is it? that would make it much lighter than the 172/182. But what power does it have with the throttle bodies? And what other modds does it have?

[Msouth]

It said spec C in the back...never heard of a spec d?

[PAULABCDEFG12]

No it can't be a spec D because they only come in gun metal grey. The jap spec C must have a small wing then, I didn't know they looked like that.

[PAULABCDEFG12]

I thought the Jap STI spec C has 335 BHP [with big wing], and would do better than that even with a crap start. This looks like an STI spec D.

[JemArbuzy]

The STI driver must have been totally asleep :P Impreza has a bloody rocket-like start when used properly.
