What model is it? Clio3 ? Megane?
Sounds like they have bricked the original ecu trying to flash it and have just put an ecu on it thats not matched to the rest of the immobiliser circuit.
Itll be simply replace ecu and matching uch/bcm and keys. Could probably virgin the immob on new ecu and...
Common for hesitation from cold on stock map as it holds back to warm the cat up. As above look at pre cat lambda see if that sorts mpg issues.
Decent remap will sort the hestation.
@Coops Mk1 Yep i thought it was the same core/cooler as can remember bb tuning re using the gtt bits on the f7r back in the day. Crap really the cores used to split, pumps fail etc.
Sounds well, bet it goes well enough at 280hp.
You do right getting the chargecooler gone. It looks similar to pace r5gtt chargecooler core that was available years ago, didnt work well. Stick a ching spec bar and plate intercooler on they perform great, at a 1/4 of the cost of a branded cooler.
Ideally yes replace full latch as i dont think the switch is available on its own. Part number
8200078950 can buy new oem from rpd or loads of 2nd hand on ebay.

@Beauvais Motorsport have you pinned the torque dampener on stock rack for better feel when converted to epas. Im after mine doing on my trophy for better steering feel.
Small update
Both clio's were looking very sorry for themselves after not been washed for ages, not had the time or energy on a mega diet before hols. Quick wash for both yesterday evening once temps had cooled down.
Orange is a bit faded these days and Blue is a ten footer at best, but both...
Yep stone chips on outside and rot from the inside on the seam/joint between inner arch. Sadly to do it right needs chopping out and replacement metal so quite a labourous/expensive job to do. Do wonder what sill is like too and underside.
Its done well for a 20 year old car though. Miles...
Updates
Blue clio plowing along as usual mileage 170k.
Treated it to a pair of new Michelin crossclimates on the rear to replace the aging cracked cheapo tyres that have been on it since i got the car. The tyres that have been removed were almost new when i got the car 4 years ago, and ive...
