as far as im aware its a t28, with charge cooler, uprated injectores. the usual stuff. i think the internals are standard, but may go for a low comp change around when money allows. currently there is not much locally that can beat it, esecially when the mrs is driving it. it was remapped...

my one is a high boost. ie without low comp pistons etc. my one gets ragged to death by the mrs, and ive been known to give it some stick. it just keeps going. no problems at all. it just drives like a normal clio, then you boot it and kabooom off it goes. the only problem it has is in...
ive had gdi do quite a few bits for me over the years, and always found them to be friendly and bloody good at what they do. i would recommend them to anyone.
apart from the bit where andy tried to kill me in one the track cars! hehe
my williams is in dyer need of being pc'd, paintis really flat.. has anyone got the kit to do it and willing to for cash? im in sawbridgeworth herts, about 10 mins from stansted. all the electircity you can eat, plus all you can drink, and as i said cash waiting.
please post me if any one...
ive had 3
a naples valver, then had 5 turbo lump installed
another naples valver, then had willy lump installed

i get bored easily!
and why? cos i love valvers
has got a new lambda sensor fitted 3 weeks ago, new tdc sensor, even water coolant temp sensor?, im gonna replace the injectors next, and see what happens.
i had this problem with mine, tookit to gdi in the end, and they used there special high power bleed thing onit, still took 2 go's to get it right. they are just a bugger to bleed out. do your still squeel every now and then?
started yesterday on the turbo, basically filled it up at sainsburys as per normal and then it decided to keep cutting out, then ran fine for a bit. then when i turned it off it wouldnt fire again. it turned over just wouldnt fire. left it for a few minutes, and tried again and it starts...
i watched a few of those simon norris clips, and is it just me or can he just not drive for sh*t?. he cant keep the green thing on the road, let alone launch it, and on track, hes a muppet!.
you can change the standard willwood pads, for many other types, ive got some on the the way from rally design, i beieive the are mintex 1144 compound, and at 42 quid a bargain. the poly e's that came with the willwood squeel like a b**stard
regarding that bra thing, if you like it, cool. i have pleanty of cardboard laying about and duct tape if you want to make a matching one up for your bumper to stop that getting stone chipped instead. i was worried about the willy turbo getting stone chipped, so i parked it in a meadow full...
ive always liked 5's. ive had a 5 turbo engined clio, williams, and valver. if you want a fast play thing, stick a 1.8 or willy lump in a 5 turbo shell. wont cost a lot, easier to live with, and less prone to failures. good luck with it.
for some reason, aftermarket ones are about an inch too short, go to renault the last one i got was under 20 quid and it will work perfectly. took me a while to figure this one out!
ive got a k tec tubular one for sale from my hybrid, it bolts on to the normal downpipe. 150 and its yours. my car pulled like a steam train with it, but to be honest i never drove it before it was was fitted, so i cant say for definate if it make a humungus difference, but ktec seem to...
my old show car was in max, revs, redline, fastcar, and a 8 pager in pgti. plus ive had loads of other cars ive worked on featured, ahhhhh those were the days.
