It is awesome providing its set up properly. I ran a 75bhp jet on my clio sleeper for 6 months and managed a 13.5 @ 106 mph on the drag strip. If your going to fit it make sure you use a progressive controller and an upgraded fuel pump / fuel regulator.
Old pics but all i have
Take the head off and re-tap the holes you think you may have threaded - get some new bolts and try again. If the problem persists contact an engineer / mechanic that can do the job. Its nothing serious
A 172 CUP box has a speedo drive hole in the casing ( digital impulse sensor ) the box code is JC5 129
A 172 does not have a speedo drive in the casing - the speedometer is powered by the ABS system ( ABS sensor on the hub detects the revolutions of the ABS ring on the drive shaft ) the code...
If you have a 99 car with a standard accelerator pedal its easier - simply buy a clio MK1 172 throttle body ( cable type ) and fix that onto the MK2 172 lump. The engines are identical bar the throttle body. Attach the MK1 throttle body onto the MK2 lump and run the accelerator cable from your...
£2500 is a good price - the most fun part is doing the conversion yourself though - you will learn a lot from the experience and feel a sense of achievement when its complete ( and you will save £1000 ) ;)

UCH
ECU
chassis number from donor vehicle
immobiliser code from donor vehicle

A/C rad condenser
condenser valve
air con pipes
wiring loom ( wether it be a self fabricated type or the genuine one form the donor vehicle )
control panel
cables...
Please note -
When you buy a conversion kit you will need the following parts to make it a nice clean conversion with no messing about - most essential is the DONOR VEHICLE chassis details or reg number.
The reason being when you disconnect these items and re-connect them they sometimes...
ECU's arent interchangable - all Renault 172's have a plip key which is coded into the ECU. You cannot take a second hand re-mapped / chipped ECU and fit it onto your clio ( unless its been unlocked ) you can however buy a new ECU, fit it onto your car and get it re-mapped. Once the new ECU is...
