What compound are your Direzza's? Mine are R1 and they warm up quite quick.
Can't imagine them being that cold to cause it to snap like that.
Probably just unbalanced with no throttle.
Can be slippy that corner from what i've seen on videos.
Not torquing them to spec sounds like a workaround for something that isn't designed properly ?
No problems or extra vibration when fitting a powerflex dogbone and torqued to 60Nm.
That would be true if it was an N/A engine to start with.
Practically the same engine, just vastly improved internals. Gearbox mounting i'm not so sure.
Depends which Megane engine it is.
The Mk2 225/R26 engines are starting to crack ring lands on the pistons now with age. (refer to @dann2707 ?)
The Mk3 250/265/275 engine is much stronger.
