there was an artic blue 182 (i think) for and i cant find the link, but it has angleworks headwork, billet...
hi guys im still contemplating on what to do with my clio next, having spoken to jon (thejesus) and benr they highly reccommend an itb conversion.
i would like to keep my aircon ideally as i use the car as an everyday car, which puts me off itb's, ive had a look at gdi's single large tb conv...

turbo and s/c costs alot more and increase petrol consumption more than tb's i think

car temp is always running fine jus done a 60mile journey, was under half way point on the motorway as it should be and on the middle in traffic but never goes any higher
