I woke at around 6.30 this morning with a thought that I may have wired something backwards. If the resistor and fan were plugged in the wrong way round it would be easy to check with the wiring diagram and wirings colours labelled...... Yep id plugged the fan wiring to the resistor pack, and...

thats pikey even by my standards. why would you want a fan to be constantly running? id rather it just worked correctly and cut in and out when the ecu tells it too (y)

Turns out my fan wiring issue maybe a little deeper routed, another thread posted up for that as I could do with some input. My good neighbour lent me some real sweet diagnostic kit as i have a few little issue with the Twingo. An abs fault was my first to look into, after clearing all the...

Hi all, I have a funny electrical fault with my Twingo and could do with a wizard to direct me where to look for the issue. With diagnostic equipment if I activate the low speed rad fan it will run fine, if I request the high speed fan the fuse will pop (though they share the same fuse), the...

I was running the car up on the drive and noticed the rad fan wasn't cutting in... checked the dash and we were at 103 degrees. Quick check showed the resistor pack had failed again.... very strange. Fan is totally free to spin so hopefully just an age thing. From what I understand is it runs...

:D

you could of diagnosed which ones were with a £5 screwfix multimeter, that would of diagnosed your injectors easily. The ecu wont pull up a fault code for dodgy ones either, just lambda issues or misfires. Effectively the ecu sees its lean and overfuels the remaining ones to try and compensates...

Though I'm still not actually sure I want to sell it, it has no real use, the money would go nicely towards the Dope and doing some trick stuff to that. So here's an advert One off Renault Twingo GT with 2.0 Turbo engine swap. Currently on 54k miles and will climb slowly if I use it to get to...

Both are epic motors, be hard pressed to pic one on a nice day. I think the kangoo would get picked most mornings though.

WOW.

if i make it ill either be in a twingo or the dope (y) get along doesn't matter what you are in

ill have to confirm closer to the time but could well be up for c&m (y)

Awesome work man, great when the graft pays off and you get more than expected isn't it 😁💪🏻. Chris really is a legend of the tuning world. Know how you feel with traction and I'm on a chunk less power than you are! Can't wait to see it at somepoint soon, keep up the good work.👍🏻

you forgot to add a decent map to that list of changes :LOL: ;)

360bhp 330lbft

360bhp 330lbft

no idea, ill try and measure it, ive had to chop the front cross memebr to fit it mind

Spotted a black 200 EDC crossing the motorway junction in Tewkesbury yesterday (26/5/21) at around 3.40 anyone here?

WTF really! feck that like. Short arms deep pockets me

that said a quick search on here shows the gripper needs a service/rebuild every 2500 miles :oops: that cant be right can it?

best start raiding the kids piggy banks then lol

So far so good, I've just gone past 1000miles on it all. I did find there was a diff available for the Twingo RS133 box, I'm sure its also a Jr5 type box. Might have to strip the spare old box (the one I smashed the selector on) I have here for a measure up. I might just be lucky, I don't...

The switch has made a world of difference, its actually still very spritely in low power mode. Trying to get some traffic light gran prix launches down and adding the power back in at about 4500 rpm in 2nd will still see them light up 😂 trying to find somewhere quiet to do some logs on dragy is...

and me lol cant even give it away

all these clever little touches for when you buy it

WOW, works so well on the road. Boost comes in at about 5psi increasing with revs to 8psi then when you want some more press the button and 17psi fires in giving you all the powerz...... :D gets off the line so much better. Need to try some dragy times now.

My car doesn't have one..... but it will do soon. That's the other switch I mentioned that ill add in the future (when I get down the scrap yard :D) my car wasn't pre wired for cruise control, I only have the buttons spare as I fitted the meg 250 steering wheel. There's a blank in the side panel...

So I've been looking at ways I can limit power in lower gears. 300lbft of torque by 2500rpm, a light car and 15s is pretty savage even at light throttle. My car was mapped with open loop boost control meaning (haven't tested it yet) I should be able to close off/block the standard electronic...

awesome work, the delivery looks great too, should make it very tractable (y)

I think I'd already mentioned previously that I wanted to panel in the radiator just to maximise airflow through it and not around it. Quick bit of CAD then cut out of aluminium. Renault left a nice fixing I was able to use to hold it. Whilst the front was off I refitted the air scoop to the...
