    What are the differences between..

    briefly from memory (may not be 100% accurate)... authentique is the basic one, 1.2 8v engine (think it was available in a dci65 too) 14" wheeltrims, tape player, no screen at the top of the dash for outside temp etc, manual mirrors. no rear speakers did have electric windows though...

    Remap results for 200 EDC

    most turbo charged Renaults make over book figure too so id say either this RR is a bit conservative, its a poor engine or 200edc's in general are rubbish lol! my Twingo GT made 105bhp standard, my Gordini 112bhp and my dci 100 107bhp and the meganes seem to all put out good numbers

    Clio mk4 diesel from the Netherlands!

    wheels look good in the last few pics, remap results are good too bet that goes well! do these use a VNT turbo or is it just a normal one? do they have a DPF?

    06 Clio dCi 100 - any major issues with them? Looking at buying one.

    no need for a diesel then if your not doing many miles unless you need it for towing or just prefer the way they drive

    172s are awesome

    Do it mark! from reading your comments/opinions and watching your videos online you seem to be very similar to myself, I think you would get on very well with a Trophy, I love mine much more than any of my standard or modified ph1, ph2's, 200 etc. also driven my mates Fiesta ST at length, which...

    Twingo engine in a mk2 1.2?

    totally different engines too, tuned D4FT's go so bloddy well! they are the same if not worse on fuel than F4R's though when your pushing on!

    IF I were to change springs what else should I do at the same time?

    as a minimum id stick new dampers and top bearings on but ideally I would want to do track rods and track rod ends too then have it setup on a hunter machine. if your flush with cash you can look at lower arms too which come with new bushes and ball joints and replace the ARB bushes while its...

    ouch, shame as you would have saved that £200 in the fuel costs in a couple of months!

    Converting dci 65 to 80

    don't listen to this guy hes been wrong on here every time this topic has came up. you have already swapped the intercooler setup so all you need to swap over is the injectors, have them coded to the car and then just get your current ECU flashed with the correct or uprated software. turbo is...

    MPG of Clio MK3 1.5 DCi 106

    I drove mine properly flat out everywhere most of my commute was B roads with a few town sections and it done 45-50mpg most weeks, taking it easy on the motorway at 70-80mph it would do 60+ it was 10mpg worse off in each situation than my dci 65/80/100 for *indicated* mpg, I never worked out...

    06 Clio dCi 100 - any major issues with them? Looking at buying one.

    6 speed dci 106 mk3 is a much better choice however hold good money. DCI 80 is a good car, I love mine, the ratios and gearbox are much better than the 100, but the engine in the 100 is worth the extra cash! im trying to get my mate to part with his 100 daily to build a hybrid out of my 80 and...

    Twingo engine in a mk2 1.2?

    different gearboxes but you could either use the twingo box or use your own box with minimum modifying. you would need a downpipe made up custom to fit your exhaust

    After a bit of advice

    to be honest as much as you have said you want to buy a non rs and build one you really need to have a full car to convert it so you woukd need to buy a non rs and an rs and do the swap, then you would have your track car in the weaker shell with a sunroof.

    Heat soak in a 172/182 engine bay ? Project for my dissertation

    intercooler mod on an n/a car is a silly idea as you can only cool it to ambient temperature at best case scenario! Better cutting a hole in your bonnet and mounting a filter outside lol

    straight swap same mounts!

    Twingo engine in a mk2 1.2?

    if your pre 2004 engine with grey engine cover then its slightly different, if your post 2004 engine with the black engine cover that's part of the airbox then yes the TCE is just a turbo charged version of this engine

    Complete 182 suspension refresh

    that's everything I done

    Twingo engine in a mk2 1.2?

    you could look down the route of getting 1.2 TCE inlet manifold, exhaust manifold, turbo, boost pipework, 172 injectors and having someone map your ECU if its possible to map them. obviously theres a bit more fabrication involved in that but its a route you could go down

    Twingo engine in a mk2 1.2?

    economy would be much the same my old 140bhp one would do 25mpg when driving it hard and low 45mpg just taking it easy. to convert one I think it would be easier to buy a smashed twingo GT and convert the lot straight over including dash! or at least that's what id do as electrics are not my...

    Clio 1.2 tce

    it has 100bhp as standard so all you need to do is add fuel to get that sort of power, your injectors limit you before you go anywhere, some run 120bhp+ on standard injectors but I wouldn't!, set of 172 injectors, intercooler and exhaust and your fuel system and turbo are limiting you to about...

    Twingo engine in a mk2 1.2?

    your the opposite way around mate, the turbo charged 1.2 when modified has the same or more torque than a 2.0 petrol and it all comes from 2000rpm so really you just keep it around 2000-5000rpm and it will make easy progress, where the 1.6 is a revvy little engine like the 2.0 but with less...

    Differences in the MK3 1.2 TCE's

    base models up to dynamique got small front wings... dynamique S got big front wings dynamique SX got half leather and splitter/sideskirts

    Twingo engine in a mk2 1.2?

    1.6 is a boring engine imo, id go 1.2 TCE so your still under a tonne with full interior etc and easily get more power than the 1.6 cheaply!

    Clio 1.2 tce

    2000bhp around £250,000
  28. Martin_172

    Twingo engine in a mk2 1.2?

    depends what twingo engine your talking about? 1.6 as mick says id rather go 2.0 but if your talking about the 1.2 turbo then its not been done as far as I know but should be easy

    Clio 1.2 tce

    no you cant and no it wouldn't sound like that. your best bet is going for a custom system and it will sound something like this
