Modding a fuel pump on a renault is pretty straight forward - any car running 250 bhp + or with NOS will benefit gratefully from the mod. First of all order...

Due to the large amount of people enquiring about "spurious parts" for there renault cars i thought i would give you a bit of an incite as to why its a good idea to buy genuine - ok i know sometimes they are a bit expensive but most of the stuff is surprisingly cheap
eg - a genuine 3 piece...
some more pics for those that have enquired ( roamer etc )

yawn - here we go again. Stripped the motor down last night and ive basically cooked the turbo and blown 2 pistons. The rings are cracked and so is the manifold :(. Ive ordered the pistons and rings and the new IHI turbo and manifold will be here tommorow. Ive also decided to fit strengthened...
Ordered the IHI roller bearing turbo today with manifold and injectors - will produce 365 bhp when fitted. I will get it remapped before the French car show / RTOC at santa pod 16th july, so hopefully i will be getting low 12s // 11s which will give the club some good rep. I am now £2k less...
Managed a 12.9 qtr mile at York on monday compared to the 13.2s i was getting before the LSD. Thats 0.3 of a second faster than normal....so i was getting 13.0 @ santa pod, so i reckon now i will see 12.7, although ive a little trick up my sleeve and am aiming for a 12.5.
