intercooler mod on an n/a car is a silly idea as you can only cool it to ambient temperature at best case scenario! Better cutting a hole in your bonnet and mounting a filter outside lol

straight swap same mounts!

if your pre 2004 engine with grey engine cover then its slightly different, if your post 2004 engine with the black engine cover that's part of the airbox then yes the TCE is just a turbo charged version of this engine

that's everything I done

you could look down the route of getting 1.2 TCE inlet manifold, exhaust manifold, turbo, boost pipework, 172 injectors and having someone map your ECU if its possible to map them. obviously theres a bit more fabrication involved in that but its a route you could go down

economy would be much the same my old 140bhp one would do 25mpg when driving it hard and low 45mpg just taking it easy. to convert one I think it would be easier to buy a smashed twingo GT and convert the lot straight over including dash! or at least that's what id do as electrics are not my...

it has 100bhp as standard so all you need to do is add fuel to get that sort of power, your injectors limit you before you go anywhere, some run 120bhp+ on standard injectors but I wouldn't!, set of 172 injectors, intercooler and exhaust and your fuel system and turbo are limiting you to about...

your the opposite way around mate, the turbo charged 1.2 when modified has the same or more torque than a 2.0 petrol and it all comes from 2000rpm so really you just keep it around 2000-5000rpm and it will make easy progress, where the 1.6 is a revvy little engine like the 2.0 but with less...

base models up to dynamique got small front wings... dynamique S got big front wings dynamique SX got half leather and splitter/sideskirts

1.6 is a boring engine imo, id go 1.2 TCE so your still under a tonne with full interior etc and easily get more power than the 1.6 cheaply!

2000bhp around £250,000

depends what twingo engine your talking about? 1.6 as mick says id rather go 2.0 but if your talking about the 1.2 turbo then its not been done as far as I know but should be easy

172cup shocks and eibach springs with 15" OZ F1s DCI80 on apex -60mm springs and dampers with FK Spacers

no you cant and no it wouldn't sound like that. your best bet is going for a custom system and it will sound something like this

Diesels ruin you, once you've been black you never go back as they say. fast cars mpg make me sick, when it didn't bother me in the slightest before I had tried a DCI!

my trophy flat out does the same if not better mpg than what my 140bhp twingo Gordini TCE done

st no longer spinning its back wheels with that spoiler? :tongueout:

as title, about 6pm tonight

I only do about 10 miles a day at the moment, was doing 1000 a week for a while there and it was doing about 800 miles to a tank :)

once they have injectors and a map they properly take off at 2000rpm like an old skool turbo car! I love them! bit mild in standard form but a nice balance of low down grunt and quite revvy

fill it up every 2nd pay day, I get paid monthly so 6 tanks a year. because dci!

Correct. Knocks, bangs, vague steering due to geometry being out but no steering vibration. I should start charging for lessons.

Sorry mate I've not got time to go removing parts of my car to prove I'm right lol

That's not going to cause vibration though as its not rotational. Knocking and grinding yes! The rings are needed to centre the wheel properly. Saves you a load of time gradually doing opposite bolts a bit at a time and even at that your not guaranteed a perfect centre wheel due to...

Easy when you have a doner car just swap it all over i take it your car is a better shell?

Well it must be faulty too?

Im on Mintex M1144 and HC discs with braided lines abd superblue fluid from G172, puts my old 200 brembos to shame

Id just search ebay for a bosch then or get a forge recirc

Are you running more boost? If not take the new one back to Renault as I'd obviously faulty. Personally I'd just check ebay and find a bosch

Apparently there is 52mm spacing cars but i think it must be the 8v 1.2s with the non vented discs as I've never seen a 52mm car in over 50/60 mk2 ph2s!! Never heard of that suspension before could be worth a gamble
