    Suspension refresh, which shocks?

    I've a set of used Cup shocks that have seen about 5k max, if you want to make an offer on them? Was going to keep them incase car ever went back to standard but can't see that happening. Also have a set of Cooksports

    Cub's Flamer - Supercharged, Cage etc

    That's what I'm looking for. Can't agree with @NorthloopCup as on your mapping video it sounds like "eeyore"

    Cub's Flamer - Supercharged, Cage etc

    @Cub. What a great read. I've glanced in a few times and admired it but today @NorthloopCup convinced me that a charger is better than a turbo. Any plans for Winter?

    Turbo Conversion Reliability?

    It's just a toy, I work in London and go by train. We've a proper family car but both are fitted out for family duty with kid Recaro's, so the Clio sometimes gets used but the wife prefers the comfort of the Octavia, tbh munching miles I'd rather be in the Octi. I decided I could keep the Clio...

    Turbo Conversion Reliability?

    Yes, power is the final mod, perhaps cage & buckets to follow but the wife doesn't like them - she hated our last caged car. Got Quaife and new clutch going in atm, fully refreshed suspension, solid engine mounts, 888s and decent brakes.

    Turbo Conversion Reliability?

    It doesn't do the mileage to justify the extra cost, the specialists are both doing low boost for £2.6k now. Car won't get used now until Feb, then it's out once every few weeks and 6 or 7 track days a year. When the 'charger kit came up in for sale I was tempted but I spoke to @Dan@SJM and...

    Turbo Conversion Reliability?

    @bill in the daily tomorrow for a few hours so may try some others. I don't need two cars though which is why the Megane isn't the answer but probably makes life more difficult when I'd have 3 cars which are very good at what they do, but only two days to drive them. @Korky would love to build...

    Turbo Conversion Reliability?

    That is second quote, guessing I've missed out on the R26 as was meant to pick it up tomorrow so starting to give up - both have blamed my postcode - a cul de sac in a tiny village where there is no car crime

    Turbo Conversion Reliability?

    £680 to insure the R26, has to go in the garage, wife can't drive it to work. £360 for the Clio Turbo, can live on the road and wife can drive it to work. Baffling

    Turbo Conversion Reliability?

    @midge haven't you sold it? I know someone who wants to buy it Dipstick is crankcase pressure isn't it, which would explain the cam seal

    Turbo Conversion Reliability?

    @banther - I've had it since Jan 14, it's done 6k since it's mot in 2013. Trouble with buying one boosted is you don't know the car. Least with AD52, I know the car and that everything else is replaced, it owes me £4500 anyway. Nearly bought the R26 in For Sale, Greenlight refused to issue a...

    6k in 3 years, it's a toy :)

    Turbo Conversion Reliability?

    Exactly, I've read the same, but it's usually the same one or two people posting. And with ED & CT churning these cars out I assume there are more out there who run the cars without issue?

    Turbo Conversion Reliability?

    I keep toying with the idea of getting a turbo conversion on the Clio. But I keep hearing about reliability issues. Do you have one? Is it reliable? Whats gone wrong with it? Who converted it?
  18. M

    I cant be the only one.

    There isn't that many though is there? ClioTurbo & Engine Dynamics both run at 6 week lead times, so they're both churning them out. I don't read that many people posting about issues.

    ***How much is it worth?***

    It looks like a nice one, if the RB is good, I'd keep it for a few years. Perhaps treat it to an RS2 and enjoy it, it's only going one way in value.
