turbo

Just a quickie.. im having a custom actuator made for my gt25 turbo which is going on my 172. Does the spout for the vacuum pipe need to be on top or on the side? Or makes no difference? Thanks in advance

........and gave the old girl a quick wash. cant wait to get her back on the road :) looking bit neglected inside, someones moved in! washed drive reorganised

Done a lot of searching online about this but cant see much! whats the options on fitting the 100 turbo on the 80, is the exhaust manifold the same? I know the exhaust is. is it as simple as swapping the turbo over, turbo outlet pipe, intercooler and MAF sensor (as I know that's different) and...

Hoping someone knowledgable can help as I can't figure this one out. I have just bought a clio turbo and I love it. The only problem is the oil catch tank is leaking. The bolts were loose so tightened it all up but basically it seems to be under very high pressure as it's blowing oil out of the...

hi people, have own a clio sport for 4-5 years and have always admired people that have supercharged, turbo'd or ITB'd there cars. im looking at turbo charging my LY and from the offset it seems it going to cost around £4000 but am looking for any advise/help atm i'm running 190+ BHP, thats...

I have fitted the low boost kit from k-tech, but having problems mapping. It's been on the dyno 3 times already. The problem is mainly in the warm up stage, with hesitation and even stalling. Does anyone have a good GEN90 map file they could send me to test?

As above, are there any inlet manifolds on the market that will work fine with turbo applications? I'm pretty set on engine dynamics 230 kit and was wondering if there are any available to tidy up the bay and maybe give some new performance gains. Only once I can see is the rs2 but I'm insure...

A few of you may of seen that I've recently turbo'ed my 172 Cup. It's an Engine Dynamics turbo kit, and is currently running an Engine Dynamics 230bhp map (with AEM F/IC-8 running the fueling, and OEM ECU doing everything else). I'm planning on taking it to EFI Parts eventually to have it...

Regards, even though I (no longer) own a clio decided to become member (paying) a month or so ago since you guys have a lot of good info & group buys going on (NLC's hubs for one :) ). Chip & NLC prompted me to do a introduction so here goes: I started off with a Clio MK1 "Grand Prix" as it...

Just looking about and saw this kit, seems alot of gain for £1600 and runnable on standard internals (so it says) am I missing something obvious? http://www.laurent-motors.com/en/turbo-kit/60-kit-turbo-f4r-20l-16s-stage-1-2-et-3.html

Hi Guys Looking into the possibility of having turbo labelled bullets. But not 100% on the idea, what do you think? turbobadge test by EvoFq3o0, on Flickr My photoshop skills are lacking I know but just to get an idea, also and other options you think would look good? Cheers Simon

So after starting this thread and losing the Uno Turbo I kept this car quite until I collected her today. She is in very good nick for a 24 year old car, interior needs a good clean & OEM seats refitted. But zero rust!!! Quite laggy with the T28 turbo but once you alter your driving style...

So this week I'm going to be viewing both these cars with a view to buy. Both in good nick, the Uno is immaculate and running 180bhp. The 5 has had a complete repaint last year, needs standard wheels, amber indicators, and decals put back on. both want the same money. Uno is rare, but even...

Long shot here. Last year we used to have a local American classic car meet down at the historical dockyard in kent. I remember (before I was on here) that a chap turned up in an exceptionally nice looking liquid yellow turbo 182. I imagine if they are a user on here it would be a somewhat...

After selling this car 4 years ago and regretting it since , I ended up buying it back two weeks ago and set about a bit of a clean up and made a few changes. As I got it back Calliper colour changed to red Seat backs stripped and painted ( thanks to the guide on here ) Wheels...

Everyone has a dream, right? i currently have a Clio 182 and I love it but I have always wanted an evo 8 and like everyone else, I've thought about putting a turbo on or even a supercharger! end of the day it's still a Clio and then there's an evo! Probably down to your own opinion but what...

I know this must of been talked about lots. Turbo??? Or supercharge cost???

Just thinking as my next main Mod over the winter What is the rough price that I will be looking for to turbo my Clio 172? What sort of upgrades/mandatory Mods will I need And what sort of standard bhp will I be looking to get to? Seen people post like 240 but not sure if this is standard...
