@andybond looks like a half decent save to be fair

Yep gt is a factory turbo car, revs are circa 3500rpm for 70mph its a little stung out but a diesel 5th gear can be swapped in, i uses mine 50 miles a day mainly on the motorway, best ive seen from a tank is 53mpg (y) standard seats are s**t and like sitting on a park bench ? its a gt turbo...

@blokes? not sure how much boost he ran on the 133. My Gt comes from factory with a turbo, 99bhp though (or 101bhp depending on where you look)

133 is a good car but so underpowered tbh. @bloke built a turbo one mind.... the gt i have is basically a low spec clio front and rear so can be upgraded in all the same way. Ill probably end up fitting the 172 suspension to it soon but mapped up its basically 150/150 bhp/lbft. I replaced my...

1149cc 4 pot and a hairdryer ?

a tiny 1149cc engine and a few bolt ons really (y)

ha, nah I'm cheap, I only replace when I get the miles out them. old t1rs had life so stayed on the back and put the newer tr1 on the front ? deadly in the morning on a damp greasy track mind.....

hopefully I'll be back in it next year with a wider track, better brakes and some sticky tires rather than the old t1r and TR1 tire combo ??

cheers man. mr2 sounded and went like the tits

It felt a bit lacking on the straights but it is only a 1149cc. Few bits just bolt ons, air filter, returned fuel system, 172 injectors, decat and exhaust. Mapped by Chris at efiparts. soft wolowy AP coilovers and pug brakes on 172 disks. All on road brake pads and tires.

if any one has any footage with a slow burgundy twingo in id love to see it, totally forgot to flick the gopro on all day

both are a little more sore today and probably will be for a few days/weeks but both are alive and walking around (best 90s robot impressions) and more importantly alive to tell the tale* *(not strictly true, after the knock about the driver is hazy and the passenger remembers nowt)

TurboRenault.co.uk hired in a pap, did a mix of track and static shots. Will update you once we have them in (y)

good stuff, I'm also in need ?

wallet cheers ??

182 Trophy, spotted joining the m5 at the Tewksbury Junction today at just after 4. I did give you a beep but being in the burgandy twingo it doesnt get seen often. Also saw a Meg 250 shape on the m50 at about 6.55 this morning heading towards the M5

Wedding done, time to prep to the twiglet and hope it deosnt pop. Just a brake fluid change left to do i think. Cant wait for this now, going to be a proper laugh (y)

WOW Congrats, put the car away now, start thinking about it again in 4 years (y)

dont feel you have to matey. Cool stuff, grew up there in my younger years (y) will have to sort a local meet up, plenty about

wasnt me but where abouts are you? im only about 10min away from hartpury (y)

im getting married the week before and am looking forward to this more ?

both spotted in tewkesbury

spotted in Cheltenham today (bank holiday monday)

mixing it up is a great idea, I like it

Twingo has a JH3169 and the clio a JH3186, here are the ratios vs each other. Twingo is listed with my higher rev limit of 100rpm though. Both based on running 195/50/15s Twingo Clio

low idle? target is about 650rpm on them engines mind

indeed it does man lol. I like the black roof too. I'm opposite you every day (y)

if i were you id go with exhaust, air filter 172 inectors and a remap. see how you go from there. Them bits are of little outlay. Clutch when needed then bigger turbo, then maybe a cam if you find the stock one causing you issues. I expect you will find the limits of the rods before needing a...

I'll keep an eye out for you @NBG182

hows the list currently looking? much track time still available?
