I was up in ullapool last fri-mon and seen the escort cosworth. Also stayed in bungalow 500 the other year there and is a great place to stay. Love sitting on the bay wall having a few pints.
If you dont mind me asking what was your experience with ecotune ?
I got my wifes golf tdi mapped from them over 3 years ago,noticeable power difference,has done over 30k miles since and never missed a beat.
Ive bought a cracker of a clio 182 from Steve and even sold him one.Great guy and enjoyed seeing the adverts for the cars that came up for sale even although i wasnt buying.
Sorry to see your stopping selling Renaultsports mate ??
hy05xgn was my one that i got from steve at r-sport.It had just turned 40k when i sold it jan 2017.Spent a fortune on it and was incredibly clean.
Have driven numerous 182s and that one drove the best when it was n/a and was also completely reliable.Then i made the worst decision of my life and...
If your getting a clio 182 turbo’d I recommend clioturbo.
O WAIT !!! Sorry...forgot Andy shut up shop when he realised its prob best not being a robbing bodging b@stard and it’d be better to stick at home watching sesame street.
My experience with a turbo’d clio was that it was really quick and...
I think it was a helix paddle clutch in my high boost clio 182.It was really noisy on biting point to the point folk would look at you as if your car was broken when manoeuvring in car parks.
It was done by clioturbo so god know what it really was in there.
Video doesnt show actually how loud it...
Not long moved into a new house and had nothing but problems and delays with bt.
Every other company / service we used or ordered while moving went smooth.
Picture quality on this combination is about as good as you can get without going crazy money with ip cams and even still its hard to tell the difference its that good.Really easy to use and setting up viewing on your mob is simple.
Best thing i did this year was get rid of my clioturbo Tom.Always in the back of my mind every time it was out am i going to be stuck at the side of the road with a huge upcoming bill.Suppose it didnt help with all the disasters with who built it.
It blew up a few months later.
Should have just taken the car to clioturbo 😢
Joking aside really hope its finished soon and you get to finally enjoy the car.My old 182 turbo was pretty quick and sounded really good on boost so yours should be epic.
Just been going through my thread there as not read it in a long time.Practically 2 years to the day since i first visited clioturbo and the nightmare started.What an expensive way to ruin what was a brilliant wee car.
Yeah they were forged pistons.Just out of interest does anyone ever know what happened to clioturbo after all them horror stories came up at the same time ?
So heard my old clioturbo has had some kind of engine failure.Glad i got rid of it when i did after hearing that.Shame its happened though.
Might be daft but can anyone tell if they are supertech valves from this pic......
Well thats the clio sold an away to the opposite end of the uk today and also me out of renaultsport ownership for good.Started with my trophy in 2010 to the rb 182 i turbod to this and now time to move on.
The clio is back from its mot,tracking and inner powerflex bushes fitted and on the road.
But after coming from the turbo clio i can see im not going to enjoy it so again im going to take another loss as its going up for sale if anyones after a good low miles clio.Away to take a break from cars.
If u like lots of unnecessary stress and headaches in your life followed by uncertainty wither you will get your car back as a deathtrap in time for your ring trip Andy at Clioturbo will see you right.
Yeah was surprised when i popped in today to see if they were any further forward with the colour and that they were ready.Thought it would be next week till i got them back.Much happier with the turinis now.Will get its tax and mot in just over a week at the start of april and finally get it on...
Decided to get the turinis powdercoated and recieved them back today but its not went to plan.
I asked for them in a standard light anthacite finish like this
But got them in this dark grey matt finish
Told him when i dropped them off with a standard anthacite 182 alloy that they...
Got a couple of pics of the engine bay and interior now its out of the garage.
Engine bay standard apart from the engine mounts and bolts around the wings and slam panel.Also have a battery cover and airbox bolts thanks to MarcR.
Well spotted.Had a mechanic pal come round and go over everything for piece of mind before getting it off the axle stands and he picked it up so has been swapped over.
