Ive heard of a few but never met anyone they are usually Merc owners who do it. It would be good though you could bed the engine in and bvring back loads of duty free which will help lower the suspension.

Sport owners seem to have the most problemsas far as I can tell. After a while you either give us with there unless attemps to fix problem or keep going and kicked of about every problem Im not bothering about any more creaks from mine just turning the sterio up to drown them out.

Best do a search there have been quite a few supercharged 16 V and a few turbod one I beliver problem is there usually done by someone almost on there own so there no loads of company info out there. Your probably best asking on the Saxo forum for companies who do supercharge fitment and...

6hp is very unlikly unless you have a full intake and exhuast. Thjere not much potential gains from remapping. The 172 gets at best 12hp from a remap froma custom made on on a unichip etc so in a 1.4 your looking at about 4hp.There not much potential from N/A moter from remaps. You will get...

I meant pick it up from the production lin in France or wherever it is made

My DCi had 4miles and that included a drive by the saleman to fill up with fuel (well thats what he said) Have you asked about picking the car up yourself not sure if Renault let you but I know Merc do would be good fun and a holiday as well.

Some of the people at Renault insuracne will write lowering of the car down to exterial looks so you may just get away with a small premium increase (~£30) or they muy stick your excess up. But you may have to keep ringing them and asking loads of different people. Best springs seem to be Pi...

I dont think it looks to good black wheels on a black car I much something a bit different SLR turbine alloys would look good on a Clio Im thinking in silver. Or a few spoke thin alloys would look good

You can but a recirulating one on the engine but the problem is you need to disconnect some air sensor or something I forget what ist called. Apparently the exhaust has a sensor in it which can check the air fuel mixtures and this takes over when the intake sensor is giving false reads however...

All the range have power stearing the 172 etc have an hydrolic ystem though. The Sporty, dynamic etc models have a slightly different rack I think.

Just like loads of other tunning boxes tunning to 100hp shouldnt be to bad for reliablity in the long term. £120 is a good price there usually about £250 at cheapest.

The insurance is for 19+ I think but you could always put someone else down as the main driver and yourself down as a second driver. Renault insurance used to let you have 2 extra people on the policy and they said my brother would be allowed to be added to the policy as a learner at 17. (I...

Ive got them on mine helps reduce all the stones and dirt getting thrown against the side of the car. I think there quite good and should stand out with a body kit There not a very good design though as mud collects in the rear one terrribly.

It puts the trip computer and dials into diagnostics mods so all the lighs on the dash go on and the speedon and rev counter run up and own there scale. Thats how 1.2 owners claim over 120 as they take a picture when the cars in diagnostics mode and the rev counters running though its...

Is the crank shaft strenght that important has anyone broke one and been told that if youd had the other crank you would have been ok? The diesel one (turbo) held back 93hp at ~4k so when you rev the engine to 8k then it should be good for least 186hp as doubling the revs with the same torque...

I cannot believe you get quotes like that I pay £880 on my dci at 21 with 1yrs NCB and 1 claim. Best for a 172 is like £1700 adding additions drivers make it even worse. Id buy a 172 in a second if I got quotes like that excllnt price how come its so low are you on limited milage etc?

Its 3k for the kit and another 3k fitment at a guess you need the engine taking to pieces to replace the pistons. Not sure about the clutch. The company who made the kits in wherever have theres up to around 300hp with more work 250hp is just the practical limt that most people would pay for...

Have you got something stuck behind the pedal? Happens to me all the time getting the mat moving round.

Its not invisiable to dealers they can easily look and see the software. They dont look though. As for it being invisible to insurance companies well they can tell in a few second when they do a dignostics check they will be doing more and more of these on cars now when claims are made. (heard...

That yellow option isnt availiable in the UK as far as I Know. The Renault site is useless for information

Mix 1/8 cricket bat oil (gone a blank on what its called) 7/8 White spirits then put it on with a cloth. When it has dried of / evaporated do it again if need be. Sometimes took 5 attempts before the plastic strips were realy clean. EDD

Malpas, Cheshire (thats up north for all you southeners) Hit 110 down a slope and hits just over 100 with enough time even fully loaded.

Ive heard this before but my dynamic dci 2002 doesnt have any warning beep never has done. Dont want it just wondering is it another Renault quality build item.

Just get a cheap TV from a caravan and stick in in your passengers feet. Easy to wire up to 12V battery in the boot if you want and way bigger screen.

It may be cheaper with a 172/cup as if were talking a 2 yr old 1.2 dynamic there about 5k trade maybe since your looking at 2k for the conversion then £500 for brakes and £500 for similar type suspension then your knocking on for £8k there a Cup reciently advertised for £8.8k in the for sale...

I have a file here in German on supercharger Renault kits for 1.4 and 1.6 but since I Microsoft word installed I cannot read it. I read it today at work and Im sure it said 4350 euros or something although it was in German so I could only pick up bits of it. Throttle bodies would be easier...

1k for fitment of the engine then you have the cost of an engine/gearbox etc. Best buy a R5 and take the bits from that then but the bits u need speratly. You have to decide how much you want to spend on the engine though you could buy a GTT wreck and drop that into your car for a total of...

Yep dead easy apparently you just need to remove the pannel which is easy although the wheel gets in the way a bit so removing that would be easyer if you want to do it. However to remove the whel you may need to mess around with the airbag. Best option is to disconnect the battery for...

There a 1.4 supercharger kit out on the continent with 165hp I think there is a supercharger 1.6 kit out in germany I think with 185hp for 4k euros (~£2k I think) not sure what that entails though. I thought it was drive in and drive out. As for turbo kits there a 1.6 16V which was made not...

I can see 2.0 T badges on it or is it just me? If this the Renault Sport version then maybe it will be released when the car is originaly put on sale.
