IMO the dci.
This topic bound to start moaning
At the end of the day I tried drag racing time after time at an airfield a 1.4 with an exhaust and time after time he got about 2 cars lenght head by about 80 but it wasn't much round town the dci feel quicker realy only when to rev the petrol more it makes it felt.
The 65isn't that slow its 70hp realy. plus feels more with the torque
Plus road fund £35. and you can get 80mpg even when hammerd will do 55 a petrol get about 33 with the same driving.

monstrous

whats in the other dci? dci80 is it? that a 1.7? 1.9?
Edde - On mk1 clios you had 1.9D (not turbo) with 65bhp.
On Clios you only have 1.5L dCi's. 65, 80 and 100bhp! Later on the mk3 Clios they all had a 5bhp upgrade, hehe.
There are also 1,9dCi, 2.0dCi, 2.2dCi, 3.0dCi, etc but not on Clios.
feel free to visit www.dcioffice.net for more info.
Cheers!

1.5 liter in all spec in the CLio.
Nope still 1.5
Yep that not a bad engine realy for an old tank.
Gearbox is fine its just a horrible shift.
330Ci (Fail)Sport
30bhp difference between a 1.4 and a 1.5 dCi....could you live with that? I have the 1.4 8v with 75bhp and tbh its not great, have to rev it hard for just decent acceleration.
Mines pretty low too. Average around 30 but I hammer my car around a lot and sitting at 4-5k rpm for 20mins down the motorway most journeys aint a help! But mines 8v so should be better right?

It not 30hp though in real life driving.
I've driven the DCI 65 i mean it wasnt bad my dad's got one. Just being curious i was on the K-tec site looking at diesel mod's and i thought would a DCI 65 be worth modding or tuning?? your thoughts please.
What do you mean by worthwhile? No tunning good value for money tunning boxes and remap for hp gaisn are cheap for diesel no 1.4 would ever get the same gains as a dci would with a reamp even a 225 v6 would have trouble making the same gains.
Do you realy need any extra HP? if so get the 80 model? if you want more gte the 100.
The 65 will still top the ton and shift more than enough.
If performance was all you want I wouldn't get the 1.4.
You have to weight up the advantages and disadvantages I much prefere my dci than 172/182 for the driving I do.
Yes and no
A remap/tunning box do the same thing don't try using both of them you'll have loads of trouble and no gains over just having one as such.
You can get 100hp you need a custom reremap and an intercooler realy for safety . it could be done with serious hard reamp but engine life is difficult to say how long so best use an intercooler from a dci 100 as that the best Clio one.

right a really dum question but to all the dcis have turbos? I guess they must if if they have an intercooler

having been disappointed with even a 197, I can vouch for the mid-range pull of a tuned dci 80 (110bhp and 180lb/ft from a strong custom re-map and K&N panel filter)
to give you an idea of the potential, I had NO PROBLEM sticking with a Suzuki Swift Sport the other day (rated @ 8.9 to 60 and 126mph)
It wasn't a duff car cos X-Type diesels are EASY and left for dead (9.9 TO 60 AND 120+)
^ ^ there is absolutely NO way a 1.4 would keep up with a Swift Sport 1.6 16V
AND it does 60mpg no worries (53 pre-remap)

p.s. Ian YES ALL turbo, 68 has no intercooler thou.
80, 100 and 106 are essentially the same altho different gearbox on 2 higher power models
BUT all three higher power models re-map to almost the same, so go for an 80 cos lower emissions (tax £35 p.a.), better economy (67 combined against 64) & lower insurance (3 instead of 5)
