"ahh yeah, lumpy idle because its cammed mate!" wouldn't say who it was.... why not? calling BS

Led number plate lights fitted, amazons finest 👌🏻

honestly? nowt but noise. fire some laughing gas through it, 25bhp shot (y) unless its a 1.2 turbo then you can remap it for more power

Not had much chance to play, but have a done a few draggy pulls on the Clio this morning on the way to work, fresh air giving it some boost. Not too bad I don't think?

Nothing was flagged up, torque comes in nicely and isnt overly high, it could have pushed loads more, but itd have been a pig to drive quickly. So hopefully the clutch packs are well within their working limits

Wouldnt have been wise or safe to do a pull without a map on it. youll need a hybrid of some sort on there to get 280ish, i think the stock turbo is maxed out near 250.

I'll write up a full post when I'm less tired. But we ended up with 307.5bhp and 259.1lbft!

you could be right mind..

No you will need the complete 172 upper engine mount, the gearbox mount that matches the gearbox you use (if 5 speed, you can use a modified 172 dog bone mount) Drill the block and add studs I used a DCI box, i cant comment any more than that. No the GT turbocharger will not fit the manifold...

Go on then people, lets hear your output predictions. Closest wins internet points (y)

*6 speed

So if any of you are wanting a discount on Forge Motorsport products I've got you covered Use the code "ADEYSPEC10" It gets 10% off Forge products excluding any brake components, product fitting, and remaps (y)

I used the 205bhp engine which is the same as the 225 and 230r26 engine. If the f4r800 came with a speed itll be the same block

all the answers are there if you look, it depends on how you want to go about fitting it all tbh. Engine mounts, no in a nut shell. You need the 172 cam cover modified to fit and the upper mount on the f4rt engine. Then if you use the 5 speed box mounted on it you can use the 5 speed gearbox...

Indeed, I popped a f4rt (304bhp in the end) in a 1.2gt twingo. If you search my threads you should find the build one. I tried to cover as much as possible in there, i modified the engine to accept a 5 speed also (y)

Pump housing was whipped out this afternoon. It does require a little angle grinder action to make space (I need to revisit this to tidy up and make/buy a new inspection hatch) removed, stripped it down, and then rebuilt with the sytec fuel pump. I'll do my "check over" of the car tomorrow and...

So..... Slight over sight on my part. Its been advised I will need a fuel pump. Race on, sytec ordered and hopefully it'll get here with enough time for me to fit it before mapping Wednesday.....

Last peice of the puzzle knocked up by a mate today. 3 inch turbo intake pipe that has the factory recirc, crankcase and boost control solenoid take offs added. Need to give the car a once over this weekend and replace an exhaust clamp but it looks like we are now ready for mapping 👍🏼

I totally agree. Defo needs some looking into, if I have a big want for more power though I may have to sacrifice something

i have a Juke RS 6 speed manual box in my watch list actually....

Chuck it on, let Chris work his magic and see what happens 🤞

hmm extra layer of worry there then....

I had a few reduced power moments when I first got the car but after cleaning out the boost solenoid ive not noticed it again (the car was limiting boost pressure to 6/7psi) Id hope to have noticed a clutch issue by now? or is it something that was only highlighted when mapping?

I guess I'll cross that bridge if it comes to it? Can't tell what they will do till we try turning the wick up? 30bhp gain with a few bolt ons isn't to be sniffed at though?

All good on day one of daily driving. Racked up about 60 miles so far (y) Im dropping off some bits tomorrow to have my intake made up and Mapping has been booked for next Weds (11th) at EFI parts. Will be interesting to see how it performs on the dyno or see what issues we come up against...

Listen to how chav tactics this now sounds! Only light throttle till I get It mapped though. RS mode gives it some mad bangs! In normal driving/auto mode it's quite pleasant. Can't wait to hear it with some revs and boost!

No idea, I just call it all "subframe" let me know if you find a price on a new one 👍🏼
