It was at Clioturbo when I dropped my car off to Andy having the engine rebuilt. Bet it goes like shite off a well greased shovel!

I'm not quite sure, around £170 rings a bell but your best bet is to get in touch with Andy!

Thanks! Thank you. I'm adjusting to the power delivery now, still finding first gear a bit of a 'mare over 4,000RPM but generally take it easy in first to look after the gearbox. Between myself, Andy's fantastic customer service, and Scoff's mapping knowledge, we've identified a slight...

He shown me that when I was collecting my car from him. Its a work of art mate! Really lovely thing, such a shame its hidden!

Well, the sun didn't want to play ball, and the car is well overdue a full detail (which will happen soon). However here is how the car now looks: :)

Definitely in! Thanks for all the kind comments! Andy - don't worry about the pipe it's a very minor thing. I'm over the moon with the car the work is A* Cheers again mate!

Its great George, I really don't know how you keep hold of 280BHP because it took some time before I could let mine off it's leash properly! I've a couple of little things to sort out on it.... -One of the boost pipes is rubbing on the bonnet so its taken a little bit of the paint off. I'm...

Hahaha doooo itttt!

Wow! Car is very quick over 4,000 RPM and gets so much attention due to the flutter! Difficult to drive at first but once I got used to the normal Clio characteristics it was so much fun on boost! Andy was recommended for his great work and he has delivered again!

Thanks Jamie I will get that sorted!

Thanks mate! It's a big outlay in all honesty. I was toying with getting a Focus ST but was concerned I'd possibly buy someone else's problems. This car has only wanted a thermostat, I'd had the belts done by Fred, so I knew it was a tidy reliable example so just decided I needed a little more...

Excited for tomorrow....

Andy teasing me haha! Collection on Saturday I can't wait!

Sounds good! A weekend of boosting then! That's my plans anyway :)

No buddy they were put in by Andy as part of the conversion. I wanted to make it a reliable and strong conversion hence the mounts and drivetrain parts.

I bet! Where are you taking it for mapping?

Yeah the vibratechnics kit. Is yours?

Yeah mine is running refurbed box. Spoke to Andy today, he is finishing a few little jobs on it but says it drives superb!

8psi or 0.5 bar mate. Yea the clutch was a mare when I first bought mine. Not sure how this organic one will feel!

Re: Ade's Renaultsport 182 Project Got a hire car to tide me over mate, a Hyundai i30 1.6CDTi. Really gutless thing so the Clio will pull like a train when it's back!

Re: Ade's Renaultsport 182 Project It's like the countdown to Christmas just without the Advent Calender!! Really missed the rawness of the car and with an extra 50BHP on tap it'll take some getting used to again!

I'm just by Harrowside shops so not far from you but I haven't seen your car about. Mines currently having a turbo conversion done so it's been absent lately, but its due back soon. Here's a pic of it:

Re: Ade's Renaultsport 182 Project Yeah, the sensible side of me is glad it is a little lower than I hoped for, for reliability reasons. It's my daily after all.

Ade's Renaultsport 182 Project Andy's just text me. The car is mapped now. 225.8BHP &207ft/lbs torque. I was hoping it would break the 230bhp mark but I'm sure it'll still be fairly lively!

Glad to hear it's on the road pal! Mine is due back shortly Mr Greer tells me! As you say, like a kid at Christmas!

I bet you are! How long until your running it in?

I never knew you were offering a delivery service aswell now!? ;)

This will be a weapon with the diff fitted! Coming on great George!

For the uprated pads I've used (M1144's and DS2500's) it's always been recommended to me to leave the shims out. I had huge amounts of brake squeal when I ran the M1144's with the shims in.
