Il come down as I live round the corner, No need to put my car on though, its spent enough time on pauls dyno and I know the power so....
Also if anyones interested in going in my car il take em for a spin! :D
At just £5 per ride! HA just kidding! :rofl:
damn if i would of known i would of nipped down and took you for a spin to make the wait even worse for you!! Has paul said how long it will be? the block i have got is a ph1 block too!
is the compression ratio good for charging? I aint got alot of knowledge when it gets down to compression etc but I know paul was telling me to get a certain set of pistons and rods for mine! Maybe worth checking!
I got my standard engine for £150 which has covered 70k miles! So ive got loadsa...
Sorry Danny I dont have the vids any more! Totally deleted them incase I ended up getting into trouble for them! lol. I would defo look at doing the clutch, it wont last long at all on a standard clutch imo. Its good to hear that another ph1 is getting done! Makes mine more unique! lol. And...
Hey Danny, have you read my threads on my SC 172? You should get more than 240bhp, Paul managed to get 251.9bhp out of mine and its still running rich so more is achievable!
Also I mounted my boost gauge where the ashtray is, Looks sweet:
Also there is a few more SC clios than you...
I know the advert has a little bit of bulls**t in it like special edition etc.... but my dad has advertised it for us and he really doesnt have a clue! lol
Basicly the car is a little stunner, 49k miles with full service history! Its my girlfriends car and has been lady owned since new with...
what is ASW?
I put it there because I like the stealthy side of the car and suprising people in much faster cars, if they saw a boost gauge on the dash or a-pillar they would know straight away that it wasnt standard! I hardly look at it, its just there for re-assurance that everything is...
No really simple! The hard part was cutting, shaping and plastic welding the pod in place. Vacuum line goes to the nipple thats already plumed into the inlet manifold at the side of the throttle body. Took 5mins to wire it in and run the vacuum line through.
On Friday I fitted a boost gauge into the Clio. I got the smoked gauge off eBay for £10 2nd hand and it came with a plastic universal gauge holder. I was wondering where to mount it and was going to get a pillar pod but wanted something different! After some thought I had a plan - Get rid of the...
Il get some up soon mate,
Just fitted a boost gauge today, made a custom gauge pod to sit in the cup holder. Looks sweet! Il post some pics up tomorrow
Cool, thanks for the pics! Yeah the links are broken. Got a bit worried with people saying watch it with the vids, 130mph + street lights aint good! Although I have street lights and traffic lights on my private land! ;)
So I deleted them off photobucket!
LMAO at the people saying buy a faster car! Thats boring! If you love the clio then spend the money on it! I did and I have NO regrets at all! Its awesome!
For £4k I got 252bhp and 202lbft from RS Tunings Supercharger kit! Its awesome, see my supercharged monaco thread in the media section...
Evo was pretty close, rolling start and he pulled about a car length on me upto about 100mph! S3 got wasted, Veccy VXR was a poor do, I think he let off or if he didnt it was slow! 172/182 is the best, really makes you realise just how much quicker it is than before, lets be honest there quick...
No mine doesnt have traction control so makes it easier, its useless anyway!
Yeah I was gutted I couldnt make it, cant wait for the next one, il be there!
;)
Traction is pretty good actually, really suprising! Doesnt like 1st, in 2nd you might get a really tiny bit at the top end and 3rd your away! Look at the vids.
Yeah petrol is noticably alot different to what it was before! Although if driven carefully it still more or less returns the...
Right guys I have some power graphs to show you now the itg filter is on. Paul has said that the car is running a bit rich but its slightly safer. He wants me to see what its like over the next month or so and if all is fine he will then map it a little bit leaner which should see more power...
WOW! Couldnt believe this when I saw it! Out of all the footage they will of taken that day.
The cliosport.net stand makes it in at 25 seconds. Then at 27 seconds theres a shot of me showing 172ben my supercharger conversion! Quality!

Lol! If I was u I would tell him to get in the car on the dyno! No way would I be jumping in it! Just looking at the thing scares me! Looks like a death trap on wheels!
I'm gunna nip down on my way home from work Paul n c u about that filter btw!
The car is completely stock with an electric fuel pump or sumat! K reg engine. He's already done half a season in it with no probs, lol. I'm suprised it lasted one race! According to the bloke who built it, the car doesn't run on an ecu like cars do today, he confused me at that point!
Everyone at work is guessing mid to low 300's! But I reckon more like mid 200's! The lad that built the car has guessed 400!!! Way over optimistic IMO!!!!!!
A bloke at work has built a grass track car out of a fiesta, and put the engine in the back. Were having guesses as to what the power is and were all throwing £10 in a pot which will pay for the dyno run and the closest guess gets the rest! The engine is a 100k miles 2.8l v6 Audi lump with two...
