    Clio performance compared to others

    The kick is still there just not as sudden as it is when standard, but thats because the 4-5k flat spot has been removed!

    Clio performance compared to others

    Usually mapping n/a engines isnt worth the cash but an rs tuner is on these, probably gain a couple bhp but that doesn't tell the full story. The idle raised (i think its 150rpm) and vvt activated from cold makes a big difference to the refinement and the extra mid range torque is brilliant

    Clio performance compared to others

    My mate had a standard new fiesta st and it pulled on my trophy after 120 with ease, now its revo stage 2 it demolishes it!

    Clio performance compared to others

    Standard vs standard in my experience, CTR will pull a car length or so on you, you will pull a car length on a corsa vxr, and pull a couple on a fiesta st 150 or focus st170

    rs2 manifold

    would be awesome if Henk @Fastchip could offer a map for this with the rstuner so you could order the kit along with an rstuner and do the full installation yourself, fit>upload map>go blasting!

    Does the 1.2 TCE 100 just have crap economy?

    Seems about right my pair were never any better than a 172 on fuel, very short gear ratios on them, my mates mk3 clio was better on fuel than mine, which is odd as with the dci and rs the clio 3 was worse than the clio 2 Drive them off boost and they are about the same on fuel as a 1.2 16v but...

    MK2 1.6 CLIO K4M TURBO CONVERSION

    Go with an f4r and a ClioTurbo.co.uk conversion, probably still work out cheaper. There is a few custom k4m turbos about, none in the uk though as far as i know

    Realistically, how many miles before my Clio dies?

    ive never tipped a delivery driver, I don't tip the DHL man when he brings me shiney new car parts so why would I tip the guy bringing my dinner lol. Ill tip a waiter or waitress in a restaurant if I get good customer service, but that's becoming very rare these days too!!

    Realistically, how many miles before my Clio dies?

    Lol at never use your own car for work as you never fet back what u paid in, my car cost me £1000 and my company has gave me £2500 in expenses for using it! In reply to the original question, we have been using these engines for driving school cars since 2001, usually change the cars at 140k...
