Waved goodbye to the stock inlet and plenum… the polished days are over!
Time for some performance
Looks so empty and bare! Individual throttle bodies will soon cure that! Yay
As ive already said,
Stock Clutch for Stock Power
Genuine Cable from renault.
172 clutch will require 172 flywheel, which will then require different engine management as the mk1 clios used a funky trigger pattern on the flywheel. So not really an option.
You could use a 5 GTT clutch but...
fyi the immobiliser isnt anywhere near the sun roof... the IR remote is... that would cause problems. the Immob is under the drivers side of the dash.(iirc)
you could try to skim the roof, but there is ALOT of flex in it so it would end up cracking. Many have tried and failed, and you cant hide...

Yes that’s right, finally I’ve removed the distrubutor cap and ht-leads.
The Omex can take care of this for me so now I need a newer “wasted spark” coil pack. The RS Clio uses one but requires Ht-leads to each spark plug. After some reading up found out the f7r in the megane uses a wasted...

Left the enginebay looking like this
Looks so clean without the wiring!
New radiator and Omex wiring loom for beaniesport to chop up lol

Well is it not usual for a car to loose performance than gain performance with age?
