i've tried to setup this SW, but in the middle of first cd i get this message:
http://djsly.moj-album.com/slike/508301/Dn9EUUN5eSVqCS80.v.jpg
can't finish my setup. Anyone experianced that one before?
@edde: coz it's cheaper that way. I have all parts needed, just missing the pistons.
BTW if we'll do that, it will be soft turbo, so no more than 250 PS. Gearbox and diff should handle that power.
@Fred: i'll appriciate it. thanks.
are dimensions of a megane 225 piston same as clio's 172?
Can they be changed without any other modification?
I'm looking for those pistons for a long time now, but nowhere to find them.
Where could I buy them?

you never know....just being cautious...
I Agree rims are horrid, but good enough for winter tyres ;)

Replay from k-tec:
"Hello, we will be testing the diff at the end of this month as we will also be aiming for 400bhp. I am afraid I will not have results for a few weeks so please feel free to contact me in early April."
So lets wait till april ;)
@Fred: Thanks mate,
Looks bigger...
Why not some other car or V6. Insurance for V6 would kill me. And first of all it would cost me atleast Ł14.5oo. Not interested in this combination at all!
A bit of history:
We put a T3 turbo on 1.8l N/A Mazda Miata. Tested @1.o, 1.3 bar boost. Insane. So we know what we are doing.
I would get through alot cheaper than Ł6k!! Still I have a minor problem - leak of knowledge about Renault parts. Specially gearbox.
That's why I turned to...
Go for it? Or not?
First of all I'm not thinking about T kit, like BB's, K-TEC's, etc...
Everything on my own!
How much HP can original gearbox handle?
I aim to 400+ HP or rather not do anything at all.
Your advice?
Exhaust maniford + T3/T4:
PS: I read alot about 172...
Nice stevo. Did you get any info of tech specs of parts installed in your car?
I mean type of turbo, which injectors, fuel pump,...
Can you post a picture of exhaust maniford and turbine?
RE5PECT!
Well I am crazy, but not stupid. So while I was driving, a friend of mine took pics and vids.
Thanks guys, happy with positive feedback.
@BillyUK: Video by me doing 250km/h will be taken as soon as the weather gets better, and when I change my winter tyres with summer tires.
Till...

-->Is that your top speed , are you hitting the rev limiter at 250kmh ??
That is top speed. Rev limiter in 5th gear at 7.ooo rpm. I was short of hitting it for abut 50rpm :)
I was almost out of the fuel, hehe...
-->What do you call almost standard ??
CAI, tinted windows, painted...
yeah, but at least your cops are minding ther bussines. Here i get pulled off lets say once a month, and must show all papers, TUV, and so on... so cop can see that my car is ok. A lots of papers to deal with, so everything is legal. Installing a turbo on N/A car and certified it, its almost...
WORD!
Even 300 doesn't seems much. That's why I suggested T3 turbo.
When U achieve 300hp then start thinking of how to put such hp on road. LSD is neccesary.
Don't know how much a gear box can handle?!?!
Clio RS '00
Almost stock :)
Here it is:
