Exactly :) lol

You were following me (in the crappy work megane) at about 12o'clock today?

It's not a 1.2.... I'm perfectly aware that it's not financially sensible. As it says in the thread, it's for the fun of doing it :)

So the Clio is the quickest car in its class then..... The only thing that let's it down is it's sub par interior, but again, that's why it's 15k and not 20k. You can't count older cars!

Not really possible without spending £££££ mate. The only thing that will make any difference at all is a decent service. Save your money for a quicker car.

A boosted 1*2 is always going to be quicker than a standard 200! I completely disagree about the 200.... What can you buy for 15k that is comparable????

Do you know the names of any of them mate? Did they make a project thread?

Just don't do it. Why would you want a different profile on the rear????

Ah yes, I saw that. It's a bit of a mission from my house, but I'll do my best. Thanks Tom.

. , ? ! ' : ; That is all. Good luck though.

Awesome! Where abouts is this meet? Ill try my best to get there...

But when you're doing something that's not been done before there's always going to be unforeseen complications. I could easily end up waiting months for a tiny component and completely ruin my build schedule.... Maybe I'll buy a second engine... Then I can do as I wish with it and drop it in...

If I had the space I'd buy a ph1 as well, just to mess around with. Then I can do what I wish to it and not worry how long it takes or what goes wrong along the way...

This is one of the main reasons that I'm drawn to the forced induction route... It allows a lot more scope for imagination and tinkering. But then I may end up with a garage full of bits and a worthless engine and months wasted.

That would be great if you wouldn't mind nick. The sound of the jms inlet is tempting me... Nothing better than a gorgeous induction note ;) Anyone local got a turbo/sc car that they fancy taking me for a drive in??

Focrs, I'll gave to look in to this option... As you say, I'd imagine It would work out cheaper. Dangerous when you're doing something that's as yet unexplored though.... Rstuning, ideally I'd like to see 240hp but I would sacrifice a bit of peak power for more mid range, important to keep it...

From what I've seen, the hp figures seem to be very similar between the jms and itb's, but the jms is down on torque a bit, yes? Jms does give a beautifully smooth torque curve though... This is even more difficult than choosing my wheels!

Learn to park? :rasp:

It will be my weekend and track day car. I haven't got any plans to race it as yet, but as the project develops I may well change my mind. I'll be ordering some kw v2's on payday and will strip it out as soon as the gf gets her new car (she says we need 4 seats :( ) it'll be staying like that...

As Toby said, ring them, ask how much it would be as you're considering doing it.... If it's cheap, then do it. If it's obscene then just keep it standard.
