    Clio turbo conversion or megane?

    The thing for me is do your homework. Clio turbo is a reputable tuner but I'm yet to see any 197's stg 3 as yet. Meg conversion is not plug and play to get beyond the magic 300 mark. There's an awful lot of things that come into play and it's gets really expensive. Also a 350 bhp Clio doesn't...

    Welded IC into crash bar. I wouldn't use standard IC and better future proofing it if your going to go to that bother.

    Flacsi's Racing Red 197

    Definately. Think of taking mine off tbh. Not convinced there's that much difference. I think it's more the standard rubber going and if you replace with standard, would have a better outcome.

    Hearsay, hidden agenda's and the usual things that in life you can't predict when you doing conversions. Try taking your car to the multi billion pounds Renault and see whether they always get it right or on time. Sc Autos, the first 250 conversion 340 ft lb, 2 years on and I use it daily...

    It's funny cause when I did mine, lots of anti FI and now it feels like another on being built every week. It's a geat conversion and makes the Clio a really quick car. Ste at SC can help with bits that make it easier to DIY.

    LY200 - too loud or blow up again, taking bets!

    Agree. I love project cars. Like every marriage though if it's not working it's time to separate and move on. I love this project and the more FI cars being built, the more I'd actually like to build another NA.

    R26 conversion!

    Ran a 250 engine for over 2 years now. Wiring same. Ecu same. IC Pipe work different. TB different. Better for torque but generates lots of heat. It's harder to get the power out than R26 cause fueling. Needs much more thought where R26 is more plug and play. It's worth remembering that the ecu...

    LY200 - too loud or blow up again, taking bets!

    I was the same for many a year till I realised I started out with what I knew it was going to be a project car. It's funny cause I'd taken out the low mileage engine and gear box to either reengineer or what's quite funny put another engine in it, that's higher mileage? Took off the low mileage...

    LY200 - too loud or blow up again, taking bets!

    Been there with previous projects where you get in so deep, it's hard to cut and run. I bought a two year old 330ci 12 years ago cause I could afford the M3 at the time. Wasn't happy with it and supercharger, suspension and brakes, it would have been cheaper to have bought an M3. Also it was...

    LY200 - too loud or blow up again, taking bets!

    Hats off to you tbh. I respect that where others just talk about it, you've put your money where your mouth is. That said I wouldn't go down the Honda route. At least the Clio had a template to follow in the R3 but the Honda, there are sooo many pitfalls to this conversion it's untrue. The...

    Clio Meg RS320bhp conversion (update Meg Rad)

    Bloody van reversed and hit rear arch so cat C turd goes into garage. That said, the car is absolutely running superb. Rads a massive plus. Need to think about more power which is going to be down to fueling I'm sure. I've got so use to it I forget how savagely quick it is. Such a fun car too...
