bbpt will tell you but i would imagine it will be mapped safe but fairly aggresively on unleaded. Use super to give you a better safety margin as lots of variables affect turbo cars.
Just out of interest, whats the spec and expected boost, bhp levels?
Not that far past limiter but looks like a modified ECU.
Andy, dont you think losses of over 20% are a little high?
Could have been affected by the faulty exhaust baffles :~

I wouldn't touch a magnex now based purley on this thread!
PS get someone to edit out second hand bits ;)
Everybody has different ways of estimating but i tend to use:
FWD cars - add 10 to the wheel bhp and then divide the result by 0.9
If you use just a percentage it is less accurate for v.high or v.low powered cars.

I love turbo cars , but i really think turbocharging the Clio will ruin the whole point of the car.
Ive seen many cheap conversions on various engines and none of them were worth the effort over normal n/a methods.
I think 6k is a very reasonable amount of money to expect to spend to do it...
