Thanks - well had to ask.
Had a quick look at vid you linked to.
Don't understand German so can't tell exactly what he did. Although he looks to have just removed all the Pug Air intake gubbins and strapped on a K&N.
I assume he has added nothing extra like a dump valve or the like...
So let me get this right - you want to burn more fuel - ongoing - to get an exhaust note that you are happy with?? :crazy:
RCZ-Performances' proposal is far more sensible and, in the long run, more economical.
Plus you would end up with an RCZ with symmetrical exhaust pipes (as the original...
Hiya,
I am still in the early honeymoon period for my 'R', so with 2.5yrs of Warranty left I'm not in any hurry to mess around with anything.
Love the car at this point and not necessarily wanting to change anything.
Nevertheless, at some point - when warranty a thing of the past and assuming...
Re: Peugeot committed to sporty models but RCZ could be drop
On one hand it would be a pity if they don't develop these cars more, but I'm more inclined to look at the positives here.
Despite the car being out for a while now, you don't see that many around, relatively speaking- especially...
Really, really loving the choice I made here.
Absolutly stonking car. Future classic IMHO due to its performance with low running costs.
Slight Torque steer on occasion on hard acceleration, similarity occasional Turbo lag, but nothing significant of greatly off-putting.
Its put the joy back...
@d_taylor31
Well I just took the plunge and took deliver of a 14 plate RCZ.
All that has been said above is true.
Ideally get your car from a Pug dealer, and get an extended warranty for piece of mind.
Over the years I've had many cars of many marques, and joined the corresponding forum...
OK, so very early report back after picking her up yesterday.
So the good news and the not so good news.
Alloys - well we had a little discussion about these. On close inspection they had been curbed (3 wheels IIRC) but look to have been repaired. Only noticeable when inspected closely.
There...
OK folks. Thanks for advice.
Will check the things listed.
Car has done 8k, so I would be real surprised and disappointed if the tyres were about gone, but its a good point and worth checking.
Alloys - yep, fair comment.
Ditto with the disks/pads
Clunk when changing gear - Roger, Roger...
Thanks.
Yes, although only 6 months old - already done 8k - so well run in.
I'm taking a chance with this one. Its the car used by the manager of the Pug dealer. I have assurances that his right foot is not completely made of Lead - but we will see.
Anything of note worth checking on the final...
In the market for GAP insurance now - cover for £23k car.
Anyone used any of the listed ones here - other that ALA - who seem quite popular.
As you can see from the list, they are not necessarily the cheapest...
Well boys and girls, I have finally pulled the trigger on an RCZ ........................... however.
My spec was very simple, and one I was determined to set rigidly to :- RCZ THP200 GT spec, 1 year old max and sub £16k
So why, oh why have I pulled the trigger on a 6 month old RCZ R, and...
Thanks for that Figo.
So question to Steve, as I don't exactly know how the Superchip tuning works per se.
In other words, some of those perf mods above will give more significant perf gains than others. So for example I can see that the exhaust mod and maybe the intercooler change give maybe...
Hi there,
Without wishing to be too nosy here, what is the setup of this 250bhp+ car (exhaust/filter/chip etc).
Clearly you can only get a stated 28bhp extra from a superchip mod on a 200BHP car, and air intake and exhaust mods only give you so much.
So are you using a Racechip setup for this...
Hi there,
An 'almost' owner here.
Have myself registered with pug 3 dealers looking for the right deal on a facelift 200BHP GT.
Was going to be getting an A*di TT until very recently, but then realised that :
a) TT are a tad common,
b) The RCZ offers better VFM for the cash outlay
but mainly...
