Just seen this, that would be me in the clio, coming up from black dam round about? You go off into wade road?

UPDATE: Really haven't kept this up to date recently so here goes. For most this few months i have put more miles on the car however i developed a 4th gear synchro crunch. So two weeks ago i took the opportunity at taking the engine and gearbox out to sort a few niggles out as well. -Fixed...

UPDATE: Not much happening on the car really in the last few months, havent even cleaned it since beginning of January, also just bought a house so funds are a bit tighter these days especially with house prices down south. The plan is though to get the car finnally mapped in April for my...

UPDATE: Ive always hated how messy and all over the place the Megane engine looks compared with the clio variant. The clio has nice vacuum line routing and an inlet which hides a lot of bits. The megane's vacuum lines on the right hand side go all over the place with poor routing, even in a...

UPDATE: These are becoming monthly updates now it seems, sorry about that :lol: Anyway some bits have actually been done to the car recently, first of was boxing in the fuel pump to reduce the noise. Popped down to Wicks and picked up some MDF and then got some thick sound deadening foam from...

UPDATE: Havent updated in a while, the reason for that is not much has happened modification wise. Anyway last weekend I attended PFC expo and my car was displayed inside, some of you may have seen it. The week beforehand ment I had to get it clean. Spent the saturday before cleaning and...

UPDATE: Right first things first Ive been accepted for expo top 40. Kind of a shock as it was done on likes on there facebook page for at first "Top 20", you got the same people posting/sharing etc trying to get likes which is fair enough, I didnt bother which much of that and didn't get many...

UPDATE: Haven't been on here for a while so thought id update with progress so far. First of all the radiator has made a HUGE difference, temps don't go above the 3rd marker even after some hard abuse and sitting in traffic. So I would definitely recommend fitting one if anyone is thinking of...

@Chambers_RS Its really good actually, great quality and flows plenty. Bosch 044 is good for about 700 hp. I did have people say to me that the bosch 044 superheats fuel after a while and can cause cavitation. I havent had this problem yet even after a solid 4 hour cruise on motorways, I stopped...

UPDATE: This weekend the girlfriend was in Paris for the weekend, I booked Friday and Monday off and got to work sorting out the little niggly problems. First up was an oil change, pretty simple, no different from a clio oil change really. Topped back up with castrol edge and new renault...

UPDATE: Bit of a late update as didnt have time yesterday. Well Ive managed to install half of my fuel system. I first set about wring in the pump. You use the green wire (12V feed) on the pump sender and run this to a 12V relay, so when the stock pump primes and turns on, the relay closes...

UPDATE: Another week with the clio and all is going great. There are though a few problems I need to address first before mapping. First one being the problem of overheating that these conversions seem to have. It really showed up when we had that freak heat wave earlier in the week. The cause...
