the pure motorsport do a kit for removing AC, i believe thats the cheapest option!

or you can buy a cup alternator set up and use that!

A few on the Clio projects have built race day clios that will show you how they done it.

You will need a 172 cup alternator, 172 cup alternator bracket, 172 cup alternator belt. Not to bad to fit, but you will have to bend the PAS pipe so the cup bracket will fit which is a bit of a pain.

The cup set ups come up for sale now and again or could be got from Renparts.
