Oh, you are speaking about the engine and not the front bumper, sorry.... O.K. that was not that easy, the wiring was not so a big deal but to re-marry my original Imobilizer with the K4M ECU was tricky. Second thing was the exhaust hose between manifold and cat. In the Clio1 it´s...

No it was no big deal, needed only to cut some areas and make some brackets by myself.

Friend of mine uses DENSO IK24 in his valver.

I use millers xfs 0W50 in my K4M, works fine, nearly same oil pressure over all revs, equal if the oil is hot or cold. http://www.mikrofiltertechnik.de/oele.asp?id=5

Good plan! :)

Better response, because same throttle position opens bigger area (you can calculate ist exactly 55mm to 65mm...) and some powerincrease at high rpm. Costs about €150,- here in Germany

No, not a 172 TB, musst be one of the normal F4R (e.g. F4R-780) with 140hp! in parallel I increased the fuel pressure to 3.8bars for better instationary behaviour (avoid lean peaks).

Yes it´s a Mk.2 front bumper, I kept it black because I like it red and black and better put the money into engine optimisation...

If equipped with electric throttle, the K4M and the F4R have the same throttle, equal if it´s the K4M with or without VVT. I have the K4M-760 with VVT in my MéganeII, I can´t say that this engine is much better than the engine w/o VVT, O.K., the Megane is much heavier. I had both engine on...

I like these wheels, you don´t se them often, especially on small cars like the Clio. Great!!!

There are basically existing 3 different types of the K4M engine, with mechanical throttle and w/o inlet VVT, with electronic throttle and w/o inlet VVT, with electronic throttle and with VVT (e.g. MeganeII) about +5hp than the others. sorry

thanks....I think it´s pretty O.K. for an ex-1.2l... two short vids: http://www.megaupload.com/de/?d=LXJICOZS http://www.megaupload.com/de/?d=KRMAL6FM

and now I got also a Gordini-sticker with the original font...

Yes, with tires in 225/50R16V (Conti sportcontact2). here you´ll find some more: http://home.vrweb.de/~seegi/mein_meggi/neue_bilder/ The Megane is not lowered due to everyday use, but it has the anti-rollbar (+2mm) of the Scenic at front and stiffer MAD springs at rear.

Here some pics of my Mk.1 Ph.3 1,6 16V This is the family car, a normal Mégane GT 1,6 16V and this my R18 Variable, which will get the modified engine of a R5 Alpine Turbo and wheels auf the A310 V6...

I´m at the moment quite satisfied with the power. This year I was on a Renault-Meeting in Austria, where they make a hill-acceleration. I did it in 6,25 sec, my club-colleague with a valver that´s equipped with a Mégane-Cup engine and about 180hp did it in 5,80 sec, another colleage with...

O.K. maybe there is a different understanding about engine swaps between us. But if the VAG 1,8 Turbo will fit incl. Gearbox in a Clio Mk.1, why not also the 2l Turbo of the R21 when you use a Safrane-Gearbox and install it transverse??

I have catcams ( www.catcams.be ) in my K4M with remapped ECU and this is quite O.K.

I don´t like these mixtures! What is the result? A Renault or an Audi? It´s a question of pride driving a Renault! If it must be this engine then I would take a VW Golf Mk.2.....

PUKE! I would never put any f****** VAG parts in my Clio! Then buy a TT or GTI if you like it!

I had also a 1,2 8V and put a 1,6 16V in, with some mods now 133hp/178Nm.....it´s nicer to drive than a valver, because the K-bloc is not so heavy than the F-block (fewer understeeer) and better torque curve. http://home.vr-web.de/seegi/Umbau/Umbauengl.html...

55mm is the inner diameter and not the outer!

So please ask the owner of the cliowelt.de-board by yourself (I don´t know), but I know the owner of the clio-forum.com-board and will ask for a link. regards Oliver

I just entered the board two days ago, normally I prefer german boards...;).. e.g. http://www.clio-forum.comhttp://www.clio-forum.com or http://www.cliowelt.dehttp://www.cliowelt.de

So I have to check the new K4M engine of the new Mégane (that is already presentedin France). It has now 115hp and perhaps also a vvt and I might copy it... The vvt-unit itself is not so expensive about 110,-Euro in Germany. Thank you for offering me a 2,0l engine, but ist was enough work...

:( this I was already thinking of....but I will check the system of a ordinary 2,0 16V with 138hp from a Laguna, these engine are also equipped with a phaser.... regards Oliver

Hello Captain! By the way, do you think there is a chance to apply this system to a K4M-engine (1,6 16V) ? I think to mount the phaser itself is not the problem, but from were get the oil and how bring it to the phaser? Would be a solution against power loss at low rpm when using very sporty...

Thanks a lot for this detailed discription. Best regards Oliver

Hi Ben, do it! I did it, too... :-), not the 1,8 16V but the 1,6 16V... http://home.vr-web.de/seegi/Umbau/Umbauengl.htmlhttp://home.vr-web.de/seegi/Umbau/Umbauengl.html
