Another small job I did on the breather filter for the hose that comes off the inlet, I don't like the chrome so I primed and VHT painted it. IMG_1509 by Ricard o1, on Flickr IMG_1515 by Ricard o1, on Flickr IMG_1516 by Ricard o1, on Flickr IMG_1516 by Ricard o1, on Flickr IMG_1522 by...

The exhaust is still looking good after those inserts were fitted, spot on Mark :)

Cheers Matt, are you back in Kent now?

Thanks Scott and Incey, it's such a hoot to drive. You treat it as a daily but know when you press on when needed it's right there. The breather filter I ordered has been delivered so I can sort that out, and when I hit 1k miles after the conversion I'll give it an oil and filter change again.

+1 Pretty much mirrors the trips friends and I do every year since 2007. It's a place that every petrol head just has to visit. Cracking photos, I never tire of the machinery that turns up at Nurburgring. We're heading out there the end of July

7 Days 707 miles 35.1 MPG average So it's been a week since picking up the Clio, for some reason the supercharger feels much better the more miles I put on it. After the long drive back last Saturday (234 miles) it sat at home until Thursday when I drove it to work then up to Harlow with Rob...

Saturday 31st May: D Day, picking up the Clio from Chris at EFI Parts. So after 3 months from starting the conversion it's now time to pick up the Clio from EFI parts in Runcorn. 2 weeks ago I had the task of taking the Clio up to Runcorn to have the Adaptronic ECU wired into the OE loom and...

Projects cars always do Scott, it's a constant test of character with the amount of things that need doing 1 thing after another. For me it helped to write everything down on paper so i had something to refer too all the time. It never ends, there's always something to do :D

I don't think I have any other plans so I should be able to make it

Nice meeting you too Ron, definitely a small world knowing Mart as well. He'll be down in Southend the end of June

Was nice to meet a few faces behind the forum names last night, quite a few people turned up at Tescos. As said it was a shame the seafront was busy so the parking spread out Scrooge i didn't realise you there, some really well looked after Clios there last night. Will make more of an effort to...

Cool, if it's all going to plan I could drive straight to yours then

I might take you up on that offer, I leave Runcorn about midday and takes 4-5hrs to get back. Gonna be a long day as I'm getting the 5am train up there

I'm definitely picking up the PB tomorrow, it needs a dam good wash before I think about showing up to the meet :o

From day one it's always been my intention to achieve more power whilst trying to keep costs at a sensible level. The kit itself was a good price, a couple of hundred more to complete, yes remapping the stock ECU was the next step to keep costs down. The more we progressed into the build it soon...

The reason why i took it to him, 100% trust in his work. Ive known of him for many years through RTOC and seen what he's done with his own cars let alone starting his own business and what he's done with his customer cars

If you have all the kit together, a spare complete weekend and some friends on board to help put it together, that's all it would take. It all just bolts on essentially. Such an easier way to get extra power than the turbo option, you don't have any dealings with the exhaust side of things, no...

Incey, i imagine you are more clued up on things like this than me. My limited dealings with what's going on goes like this. Supercharger running boost well in it's efficiency, stock bottom end known to take the bhp on low boost mapped correctly, fuel, ignition etc The right ingredients to run...

Out of interest what power did it go to at 10psi on yours if you were seeing 250 @6/7psi? Assuming on a completely stock bottom end? Ali the key to everything was buying the kit 2nd hand at £1450, then buying the parts to finish the kit. Everything else like service items and extras was by choice.

Very happy indeed :D I really appreciate everyone who's taken the time to read the thread and comment, really can't wait to drive it now.
