@Adam_C Absolutely loving it! Proper fun to drive but still has all of the creature comforts like climate and auto wipers so sort of best of both worlds!

Cheers Jimmy! Seems to be never ending with the niggling stuff though lol

@Pav Yeah lot of pennies, worth it to me though for piece of mind! As sean said its about 270 the now hoping for around the 300 mark once its had its map and larger injectors! @Sean197 Cheers man, i doubt it would get over that speedbump at the bottom of your street with shorter springs haha...

Not updated this in a while as ive just been enjoying the car and sorting out a few wee teething problems. Thats the engine all run in and running sweet! Had an issue with it going in to limp mode once it was warmed up and left to idle for a couple minutes or driving hard. Turned out to be the...

Getting closer to being finished, thats the engine built and back in Scotland. Gearbox has been refurbed with the Quaife ATB fitted and my 250 turbo arrived on Friday. Still need to buy a clutch and i injectors. Never went mental regarding size of the turbo as im still yet to figure out...

No using the same head, Andy reckoned it would be okay but the valve seats have been re cut. Should get the engine back this week! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Pav it was tiny, my bet is that it had been there for a while and took a bit of time to break through the belt. Ive got a photo somewhere of the stone in the pulley, Brian took one when he inspected the car, ill try dig it out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well thats the engine stripped down: -All 16 valves damaged/bent -Cam pulley bent -Cam lobes scored -4 cam followers scored and 1 broken Little bit nasty! As stated before im going for a level 2 package from Engine Dynamics which includes forged rods, pistons, new gaskets etc but ill have...

Pav Cheers, really love this wee car so i guess now is a perfect opportunity to bullet proof it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Chris91 Pretty unlucky but all things happen for a reason i guess! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sean197 My pals just bought and 09 S3 Quattro, hurt me a little knowing his stage two with basic supporting mods like intercooler, intake and exhaust can hit 360bhp, but then i remember how much more fun i'll have, and how much i embarrass him in corners.. Stay in the clio game man! You will...

no never used them, spoke with them on the phone a few times and never heard a bad word about them though, you used them before? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Haha this wee clio already owes me a fair bit, absolutely in love with it though its the best/most fun car i've owned and driven so far! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Okay so where do i start, had plans to get the car all sorted this summer with a diff, cage, buckets and harness' but something rather unlucky has happened.. A small stone has managed to get caught in my AC compressor pulley which has in turn shredded the aux belt, then fed it into the timing...

Sean197 Its just an extended link pipe man, link pipe goes straight into the rear section of the clio Miltek Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Daverb it was £130 but the company are taking it back! so upset lol.. This fits the meg turbo then you use the miltek link pipe from the megane joined to the clio exhaust! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

actually a fair bit of room surprisingly! feel like such a **** haha.. Yeah ill see if they'll take it back! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So probably the most surprising and disappointing weekend in a while, took the old cat out, or what i thought was a cat after wrestling with the engine and several rounded bolts for a few hours to find the 'cat' had Miltek stamped on the side.. Really should have realised because of how skinny...

Pretty sure they have near enough no silencers, quite small diameter pipe, i test drove the 595 and it sounded unreal! The reason they don't drone or go raspy is the turbo muffles the exhaust! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So this just turned up! Cant wait to get it fitted at the weekend, been looking at 197 manifold replacement guides so assuming its going to be just as bad! Hopefully the bolts are slightly more accessible.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
