I had it done at Renault, as mentioned its the latest version for the gearbox. The difference is night and day. It's made the whole driving experience 100% better. Pre update it was the only negative I had.
Clio 200 EDC mapped by RS Tuning, 226bhp and 250ft/lbs torque. So that's at least 75ft/lbs more torque. Gearbox has just had the latest software update.... Sitting on Cooksport springs, ITG induction kit fitted as the OE airbox is restrictive at the top end. Resonator pipe delete.
Speaks volumes for supercharging, understated against the herds of people turbocharging. I never had one problem with mine in the time I owned it. Such an immense car to drive.
The annoying thing is there's plenty of 2nd hand wheels out there but the ET55 on the OE wheels throws it right out. So many sets at ET35 at a good price, I've even looked into machining the backs of them, all sorts of scenarios but I can't justify the cost of wheels plus machine work... A shame.
Thank you, I was thinking this earlier. It's 4 years now since the launch and you don't really hear much about these cars, they're still a bit of an unknown quantity here. I believe they're sold worldwide so I guess unless you join certain specialist Mk4 forums then they go under the radar...
Cheers Rob :up: I should really do a dedicated project thread to keep all the updates in one place. For me it's a great car, it does everything I need it to do. I like the fact I can just rock up to any track, rag round all day, then just come home with no dramas.
With mine I'll probably go FMIC and another map, uprated pads and fluid.
I'm also looking into a second set of wheels to fit either Nankangs or Federal (whatever's best)
As Kev said the track was fairly greasy in the morning due to heavy mist. RACE mode disengages TC so I left it in SPORT mode.
The beauty of paddles is regardless of being in AUTO mode you can override the gear selection at anytime. So in Clearways for me it stayed in 4th and bogged down, the...
Loved the new shape when they first came out, even better as a Sport model with the front end DLR fogs and the rear diffuser. Perfect timing when this LY came up for sale
Well, an amazing day, as expected the Clio performed faultless. SPORT mode all day, didn't use the paddles bar coming into Clearways in 4th where I had to blip down to 3rd. Other than it was brilliant, hit 105mph on the start/finish line but with the mist first thing the track was a bit greasy...
Unfortunately I'm not gonna be able to make it. A mate text today offering a space for an open pit lane trackday at Brands Hatch for a decent price so I'll be there instead...
