Nice. I have built my fair share of V8s but now I am in love with my sport compacts.
Which turbo should I look for? Megane Sport or Diesel? Most of the used ones I find are Diesel but some Sport ones are around 200-250€
Would these be the right injectors? Injectors
What boost module would you...
Holy s**t. I just read it all. That thing is a Beast.
It's kinda sad that there isn't that big of a mod Scene here in Germany like in the UK or USA (ok in the US it's mainly Hondas and LS V8s)
The bigger scenes here are BMWs, VAG, Merc, and so on. but not much in the Hatchback scene.
MY idea...
Yeah I can go for a stand alone boost controller, that's not a big deal. I just want to make sure i can figure out everything I need ahead of time. I prefer a plug and play system. If I know I need a certain controller then ok. I just need to figure out where to get a tune and if I need software...
Ok I was beginning to wonder how the hell they could do it with stock ECU but now I see. ok so now I need to see about the ECU part. I can tune NA engines ok (I learned Dyno tuning at Harley Davidson.) But tuning for a turbo can be pricey and I don't have access to a Dyno.
What I don't get is how they can add a turbo without remapping the ECU. I just added an open filter with a CAI kit and noticed power loss (Too much air)
What are some good ideas for the 1.6 110hp?
My ideas were...
Clio GT Intake
RS DBW Throttlebody
Cams
Hi-Comp Pistons for na or low-comp for boost
maybe some head work
and lightening up the whole rotating ass. and have it all balanced
Tuned length exhaust header
race Cat (Have to have a cat in...
Ok, Is the 1.6 110hp worth tearing down and redoing everything for more power later? Like better rods and so for bigger boost? There is a lot of aftermarket parts for the 1,6 (That also fit the 1.4) I also thought about tearing into my 1.4 and making it a screamer. I know it won't make a ton of...
Ok. so I guess a complete 133 swap is out unless I can find a way to swap a 5 speed to it and make it work in my Clio 2. For now I will just concentrate on making it handel and brake well then I will consider engine swapping. maybe I will just go all out and swap the 2.0 RS after all. Get a nice...
Yeah at first I was just going to do that but here all the small parts are really expensive. A used Clio 3 GT intake manifold costs 200€ (and there's only one used on Ebay) where the whole engine minus trans is just 700€.
I have found a few 5 speed JH3 131 transmissions from the same year range...
So after quite a bit of searching to no avail. I will ask you guys.
I own a 2002 Clio 1.4 16v. I absolutely love the car. I bought it in 2015 with 182,000km (113,750m) for 500€. She now has 250,300km (156,438m) and still going strong. I love my 4 door and would like to keep it. I love working on...
So I did a bit of research and have found no answers. I would like to know about swapping the K4M intake manifold from a Megane (Side mount TB) onto my Clio K4J (Clio 2 72KW/98HP) (rear facing TB) Is it just a simple swap? Can I use my stock TB? I am a Certified Mechanic for cars/Bikes so any...
So i have a beefy little 1.4 16v clio B. I am looking to mod it a bit. I know i wont make a lot of gains but i am a mechanic myself and the modding itself is the fun part. So i have a few questions. I know the 1.4 and 1.6 are essentially the same just the 1.6 has a longer stroke. I am looking...
Hello all. I havea few questions. I have a clio 2 phase 2 1.4 16v. I want to put on 7x15 rims with wheel spacers (10-20) what size tires would you recommend for that setup? Thanks a bunch. By the way yes i did a search and came up empty.
So...mods that are in the near future. Body moldings will be painted to match body color, Black multi-spoke rims, black side markers, sport exhaust, and all chrome emblems painted flat black. Possible future optik mods; RS Spoiler and blacked out rear lights and maybe halo headlights.
