I think there's gains to be had. Out of intetest when I had my clio turbo'd I had the open port on the underside on my inlet plugged then ally welded. Car made 341bhp @1 bar of boost at RStuning. No one else could replicate it for the same boost and a few people hinted that Paul had maybe...

I've got the jamsport 295mm kit under 2118s if that helps mate. They are the 37et and are fine. I also ran them with the standard trophy turinis which are either et42 or 45 without any clearance issues.

Yeah bolt pattern is the same on all f4r/f4rts

Glad you got it sorted mate.

Outstanding effort mate!

There's loads of options for mixing and matching in the Renault range. You'd be suprised at what you can swap between F7Ps,F7Rs,F4Rs and F4RTs. For example Scoff many moons ago dropped a 1.7 crank into an F4R engine to drop the CR. He then proceeded to blow stupid BHP through it using standard...

Let me know how they work out mate. I still think I'm gonna just move to TDC 1.2s work a slightly more extreme offset. But if I'm honest I've bought an r26 and I'm getting carried away with that now lol

It's probably the best engine to start with for a turbo conversion. All the Renault sport F4Rs have high compression and wild cams.

Sorry Chris I've been away on holiday hence the mega slow response mate. Ive just had a dig around and I'm suprised and how few options they're is. Anyway would these work for you? http://www.europerformance.co.uk/pages/products/product_info.mhtml?product=55829 They are shouldered spacers...

When you increase your exhaust cam duration unless it's profiled so the centre point moves towards TDC you will start opening your exhaust vales earlier and this will bleed off CR. For example on my old turbo build with oe 182 cams I was at 145psi. I've now got a 197 ex cam in there and I'm...

I'm probably gonna wind the gtx3071 on mine up a little bit more, would like to see 500 out of it. But this new R26 is becoming a distraction lol. Keep looking at uprated parts for it.....

Really? Was gonna throw a set on the R26

Just out of total curiosity could some one who has a 225/197 caliper to hand please measure the mounting points? Looking for the total depth that the mounting bolt runs through so the measurement would be from the two machined surfaces. Thanks

Thanks Mark, will just get them in standard offset then. Now the tough decision on colour, do I keep it looking OEish with anthracite or go matt black. Both colors seem to work well on Trophy's

Thanks very much Tim, I did have a dig through some of the related threads but I couldn't find anyone using 1.2s. PMS state that turinis well work with standard offset (I'm guessing Cup not Trophy) but the standard wheels will require a set of 10mm spacers. I'm buying new 1.2s and there seems...

Does anyone use the above combo? I'm looking to move back up to 16" wheels and fit a Brembo 4 pot kit, I'm wondering what offset people are using for caliper clearance rather than getting stock offset and fitting spacers. Thanks Steve

Thanks Mark, I've got something similar it looks to be a Clio rally sump guard. Will try and get some photos when I go home. Actually it's one of these in this thread. Could fit some deflectors to channel air onto the gearbox. http://www.cliosport.net/threads/sump-guards.476313/

It's mostly down to the turbo and cams, they flow really well. You'll find a number running around 340bhp for a bar of boost.

I think you would be OK with medium boost on the 225 internals, but I wouldn't risk full boost as the quality of the pistons seems inconsistent. ECU wise EFI has a workable solution using the stock ecu, otherwise it's after market.

It's been done years ago, there's a few things you need to be aware of though. First off, the Clio has an idler pulley on the head as the water pump runs off the aux belt, the Meg water pump is run off the cam belt which acts as the idler pulley.So you will need to drill and tap an idler pulley...

It's all a bit old hat now but my little Clio Trophy, I've had it from new and done a few bits to it over the year's. It's at 435bhp and 390lbft at the moment, I'm just not happy with the gearbox that I fitted.

I'm too old to dedicate countless hours to this social media stuff. It's still stupid fast, but I still have box issues, after looking at every ND0 gearbox available I've today purchased an ND0 009. Will be removing the DCi final drive along with the LSD which should kill two birds with one...

Yes mate that's the one. He loved it, he used to be on here but he seems to be another legend who's drifted away.

Nice, one of the guys did this over on RTOC about five or six years ago, guy called Andrew Cooke. He loved it and brought it out on track at National day. Last I head he was looking at fitting a turbo to it lol

Great progress mate, I fitted the helix 6 puk clutch pack and it's been superb so far.

Looking forward to your gripper review, I'm on the verge of ordering one for mine

Still not fitted mine mate, but after a spell in my little brothers R26 recently I feel moving from the Trendlines to Sportsters is possibly one of the best modifications I've done (and I've done a few lol)

Got them from Germany last year, just checked the website it doesn't look like they still do them.

I've got B14s on my Trophy and really like them. Previously I had Mark Fish springs, koni rear shocks and SACHs front dampers. I would say they aren't quite as plush as my old setup, but they were only £475 delivered and came with built in camber adjustment. I've not had it on track yet but I...

I'm looking at enabling my boost per gear on the Clio. I have a sensor mounted on the rear NS ABS ring but I'm not 100% sure its going to work, I recently found the spec sheet for it and it says the teeth need a min 10mm spacing which the ABS ring doesn't have. I figured I would explore the OE...
