Why do you want more power?

 

[182 Clio]

Why does anyone buy tuning equipment, making it a multi-million pound industry mate?

!!!!!!!



Same reason we buy hot hatches in the first place, PERFORMANCE!

because he was blown away by a cup

Nope. I had a Cup before and this is a much better car.

Quicker from a stand as well, due to better traction.

How much do u want and how much you prepared to pay?

I would like 190bhp please mr ben.

i have about £500.

 

[jon_r]

they do this chip on ebay....

 

[BenR]

190 we could most probably make with modified inlet manifold, SMT6 and youve already got your induction system right?

 

[Tom]

i just sold it but another is coming.

(thats 190 at the wheels right )

 

[BenR]

shut it

 

[Tom]

Need to get it rrd first. it might have 190 already

 

[jon_r]

lol.

 

[BenR]

Then getting more should be easy

 

[182 Clio]

I would like 200. So where can I find 18bhp?

 

[deuginthesky]

Clio cup (race version) admission + ECU + exhaust (youve got 190 real HP from a Clio Sport 172 with these parts) + upgraded camshafts.

I think these mods will upgrade the power up to 200HP.

 

[182 Clio]

Thanks for that info.

I do not want to open the motor up (for camshafts, etc.,) so it seems I will go with an exhaust, chip and air filter.

That should be worth a few bhp.

 

[deuginthesky]

So the best way to gain a few HP should be to remove the cat and the central noise reductor by replacinf them by a tub until the mufflers.

I doubt a chip can give any gain on the Clio 182, because the stock one is very well programmed by Renault Sport Technologies.


Or you can replace your parts by N-Group rally parts, if ever someone already have that kind of parts for the 182.


The F4R is well optimised in the 182hp specification, on the next step of developpement, an expected 200hp version in the next Clio generation, Renault will have to modify several internal parts of the engine.
