Well that was horrible! Power steering pipes are a nightmare to remove haha. Degreased the engine bay after all the power fluid escaping haha Engine bay now looking canny.... Just the column left to do on my days off next week!

Didn't get much time tonight after my trailer driving lessons but made some good progress still.... Cup alternator all fitted with shorter belt all fitted up. Really happy with how it all looks and deleted the aircon and power steering pump. This leaves the steering pipes to finish...

Well I promised I wasn't going to start the work until I had been out enjoying the car but I got bored tonight when s**t Factor was on haha. Aircon removed and none aircon bulkhead panel fitted. Also removed aux belt, alternator, compressor and steering pump. Letting pipes empty into bottles...

Yours the Trophy from Murton? See it often Turbo is my Christmas project when I am off. Need to do my epas and aircon delete first. The pipe is from Mitch at Proline Motorsport

Haha almost cover is a light red Cheers. Simon has done an amazing job as usual Mine was meant for the quarter repair but I got carried away haha Cheers, Simon is top notch and only person I will let paint my cars Its a Richbrook indoor cover. Small size is perfect for a Clio, around £100

Car is home!!!! So car came back and looks amazing. Here are some snaps I have along the way. The front bumper has some little touches added: - Washer jet holes smoothed - Cup racerducts smoothed back in and gloss black - Upper long vent posts painted black - Ktec carbon splitter - Gloss...

Excellent work matey. Will be superb when it's all finished!

Going to see the car tomorrow and should be home in the next week or 2. Had Mitch at Proline Motorsport make up a loop pipe for the steering conversion. Much tidier solution! I had a nice little delivery from Engine Dynamics so have the missing oil return to sump, replacement hose to...

Will try and measure the spacer tonight if I get home at a decent hour haha

Quick clean up and brackets all painted up and assembled to check everything looks right....

Been away for a few days and came back to some lovely deliveries ready for the upcoming upgrades..... - Turbo link pipe - Dci steering column - Pure Motorsport power steering delete kit - Pure Motorsport steering rack bungs - Megane spark plugs - Cup alternator kit - Epas controller kit -...

Isn't on here now but I had it as an excellent fast road car in mint condition - sold it on and it's now a 340bhp turbo weapon with van conversion haha. Was up for sale a short while ago.

My old Inferno is now excellent spec but no I have always wanted to do one myself so this is the perfect opportunity. The lad doing the paintwork is top notch More or less - I have to drill the block with the sump off for oil return. Then that's about it for intrusive work. If I see...

Yeah will be subframe off unfortunately - doing aircon removal and epas before doing turbo so will maximise gains

Yeah completely unplanned purchase haha. Came up local and couldn't resist. Shouldn't be hard to fit - worst bit will be removing 182 manifold

Mine already has the mounts in for this cage so would make sense - used to be a track car and mark fish did all the work. Will see what funds are left after turbo conversion and go from there

Oops, I do get carried away lmao Full engine dynamics turbo kit.... Damn this is going to be fun!

@Darren61 Who did you get the cage off? Looks ideal. You fitting it yourself?

He managed to straighten it out so isn't filled with bodge just a light skim for any divets. He is doing the front bumper now as well as prepping side plastics

Some sneak pics of the ongoing work from Simon in the bodyshop.... Loving it!!!

Funny you mention that Paul, just about to post an update. Isn't finished but getting there - keep adding jobs while it's in hahaha

Cheers, it's getting there. Just got the seats off a lad breaking a 182 locally normally around £40-75 just for the fronts

New winter wheels picked up - 15" speedline Vegas alloys. They are rough so off for a refurb tomorrow.... Got a set of Rainsports to go on

Well the usual sunroof leak started with a tiny drip so got straight on it and now has 2 thick layers of butyl tape round after cleaning it all down... Then it was bathtime as car was absolutely disgusting.... Pair of freshly cleaned Sport seats and also freshly cleaned seatbelts fitted...

Will check as my cup is in the bodyshop and possibly one of the sideskirts has been used. Should know tomorrow

Nice little project looks a nice spec car as well I did exactly the same for my cheap daily/dog transport. Also got a thread on here as well as for the Cup

Ok but I can confirm they are different as have both types at home

65 injectors aren't as good as the ones used in the 80/100 versions. This will probably explain your lack of power. I am going the other way and putting 80/100 injectors in my 65.

Well wasn't planning on this buy but couldn't refuse haha Bilstein B14 coilvoers courtesy of @mossyv6 Had a drive down today and collected them and will be fitted when car comes home from bodyshop.....

Oh dear - I already broke an original Cup splitter which is over twice the price haha - I could have cried then
