172 Cup turbo project

[joe1199]

This is my Clio turbo project so far, i will update properly when i have worked out how to use the forum and have more time!
basically the spec is:
GT28 turbo
Log manifold
custom downpipe and 2 1/2" full stainless exhaust
Custom intercooler and boost pipes
Custom radiator with Spal fan
Custom inlet with at the moment standard injectors but RC 370 will go in shortly
Ktec coilovers
ktec solid topmounts
Solid dogbone
custom breather setup
AEM fuel ignition controller

im running a stock bottom end so boost will be very limited just to get the car running before a full strip and rebuild in the future, no power figures yet the cars up and running but just waiting to get it on the dyno.

Looks good, I'm running 222hp low boost, currently forging a bottom end to go low comp, some interesting parts you have there, I like the downpipe who did it for you? and the inlet looks good.


Welcome to the forum.

Cool car, looks really well done so far mate

 

[joe1199]

Im a fabricator/welder so I made all the parts myself,we also have a dyno so ive been really fortunate and so far everything has cost less than £1000

You should of supercharged it

 

[joe1199]

Working with superchargers 24/7 makes you want to do something different!
The b7 turned out really good and is selling well,weve got a lot of other german stuff coming soon

 

[joe1199]

small update, got battery relocated and air filter mounted properly, hopefully going to wire AEM in tomorrow so hopefully it will be on the dyno some time this week
car is very dirty at the moment!
