Roof lining doesn't save much weight, I'd take it out, remove the sound deadening and put it back in with some Velcro strips. It's horrible running without unless it's a track only car.
I had a mk2 fiesta and the carpet in that was just felt so nice and light, it was the stuff underneath that...
Not sure, doesn't say here http://www.rstuning.co.uk/turbochargers-and-accessories-c-85/turbos-c-85_133/rs-tuning-spec-hybrid-turbos-c-85_133_172/renault-c-85_133_172_173/renault-megane-rs-hybrid-turbo-rebuild-p-274.html
Yeah it is a lot of money.
Could you put the extra power down?
Tbh it had to be said :p
Get it done, smash your 8:31 on the ring. Sell it feeling satisfied with what you've done, and then go and get your crotch rocket and extra tight "damn you sexy Flanders" leathers.
Tbh there's very little I'd change on that list, it's going to go very well. Maybe polycarb windows, fibreglass doors bonnet and boot and a Varley lithium 16ah battery down the line ;)
Didn't account for the injectors but a hybrid is £834 from rs tuning.
Say 400 for a map and 180 for the 630cc dekas you're at 1400, plus fuel etc 1500. Fit the turbo yourself.
Still a lot of money for the gains although I think you'd see a lot more torque than bhp gains.
This shape really pulls off the yellow and the headlights look better than on the face-lift.
Why would the hybrid cost that much, they're about 800 + a remap.
The pink escort has some nice rs2000 maxi bits now. My mate has done a lot of work for the owner. He runs MDA Motorsport in Ellesmere Port
Lol! I remember that Subaru video doing the rounds years ago.
I would take the shaft off, fully degrease the whole area and surrounding components and the splines on the box and inside the shaft.
Put some thick cv grease (only a smear) inside the shaft and put it back on.
I've emailed him to ask!
Yeah I do too, the Ph1 front end looks loads better than the Ph2, but the Ph2 has a better rear. Luckily I've got the best of both.
