No idea lol. You'd see a bit of an increase in bhp I should imagine, better throttle response perhaps.
I had it done to my 2.0 but I also turbo charged it so I couldn't tell you gains on a bigger engine
This is what I was explaining to foxer.
If the Clio rail has a fpr on it then the ideal solution for him would be to modify the pump cradle like I have and run a feed and return to the rail. Providing the pump is good for it then it's nice and simple :)
Thinking about it, I know the meg k4m rail has room for a regulator so you could do what I've done and run a feed and return to the rail with the reg on the rail. Providing you can on the meg rail. If the Clio rail has a reg on it I'd source one of them and use that
Not sure if it would work, the standard reg isn't adjustable. Best advice I can give you is take your pump out of the tank and have a look and measure yourself as I don't know if it differs from the clios at all. I had to bodge mine a bit so I could run a feed and return to a reg on the rail.
The standard one may be good enough, you would need a new fpr though. That gives you the issue of getting it out of the tank finding one that fits the cradle and one that's rated at a higher pressure.
Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news
The mk2 boxes are the jc5 which are afaik at the limit of their ability in the clios. So naturally when clios get upgraded then they suffer. But look at the older jc5's in the megane and they're popping circlips, stripping synchros etc. only a matter of time...
That was the fault of the organisers IMO. You had way more cars than expected by the looks of things and you had actually over taken the Renault online stand, so it was all a bit of a mess. Rockingham is far superior in this respect. And rockingham was better for watching track action with the...
Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news
It might. Like I said hope it is, but given results track record I'm not holding my breath.
Any issues with the jukes box? Or are they too new to have any mileage or wear related issues?
Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news
Lol :banghead:
I've spent a fortune trying to put a vw box in my car purely because there is no decent Renault alternative. If Renault boxes were good I'd have fitted one, fact is theyre shite. Adding complications will only make matters worse IMO.
Would...
Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news
With respect, please take your head out of Renault sports behind and look at the facts, Renault have never made a particularly strong gearbox, there's problems with them on every model. Even after Renault (as a team) won the f1 championship a few years ago...
Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news
You know it's not the same right? :p
As above, it may have brembos yet, it may have wider arches, it may have 300bhp, none knows, it's all speculation atm. Best waiting and seeing what RS come up with
Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news
But your comparing it to a corsa which was designed years ago and Is a completely different brand to Renault in the same post...?
I can't remember if the k4m injectors are full size or not. If they are f4r in the megane or the Clio injectors won't fit because they're about half the size.
Im not sure what injectors you could use but I'm sure there's plenty out there that could be used from different cars. Doesn't have to...
Ide won't fit, they are plugged directly into the head not into the inlet manifold like conventional injectors
I had to make a custom manifold for my turbo in the megane. Even now I have an nats c***s width between the turbo and bulkhead
You'd definitely need a propshafts tunnel. Not to mention I bet you'd have alignment problems with the transfer box going backwards. Unless your very lucky and the shaft lines up with the centre of the car .
