to be fair that is a lot of money.

But in some ways I would have rather kept my 206 GTi and turboed it for the same price I paid for my 182! Just cause its different, and I would presume faster!?

the GTi just weren't mint enough to keep anymore though...

are they? i've no idea, what have you heard?

Worth a wee search? I sure i read some horrific feedback from them.

Who said the r26 handles better! It's a tank! R27 was wayyy more nimble and fun imo.

I was 10 tenths around cadwell and the 197 was supreme! Would have it over the R26 anyday!

Your (scottish) opinion. The diesel Meg sport laps Bedford quicker than the 197cup (in Evo), so I fail to see how it would be close to the R26. When Autocar did the big test last year, "dropped the 197 with ease".

The R26 handles better than the 197, so buy one of those instead.

It doesn't handle better than an R27 tho, not sure about the 197.



R26 does not handle like a tank however, some jokers

LOL at that.

I don't agree that the 197 handles better than an R26...
Never driven a meg dci sport but can't imagine it can handle better.
Maybe IT "likes" the bedford more because of it's massive torque.But better handling - :nono:

i got an email off them 2. so whats going to be the final price fitted then???? i cant wait i am going to get it done straight away no probs everything put to one side. this is 1st on my chrimbo list lol...

 

[mullen_197]

whats going to be the total price then and any info on the spec different and performance ??????

 

[mikeamtrak]

Its only money, you can't take it with you and why leave it to the missus???? she will only buy more shoes!

 

[edde]

oh and btw, superchargers are more reliable then turbo kits, correct ?

and power troughout the rev range?

Superchargers are no more reliable its down to setup and how its done.
Depend what type of superchrager etc how the power is

I can understand filters/remaps etc, but £4000 on a charger that will void 99% of your warranty just sounds a bit dumb.

Only voids warently on parts which can be proved to have failed due to the mods

they said about £4.700 fitted to me about the supercharger for clio 197

I went down to bbpt today, it's just round the corner (135 miles lol). They're going to be using a rotrex supercharger. And will be ready to fit around christmas ish

 

[Fred@BTM]

big brake kit on a 197???? why??

 

[Sean_R27]

Probably a byproduct of the supercharger

 

[Fred@BTM]

still no need, they're straight off the Megane 225/230/F1/R26 they cope fine with 270bhp under the bonnet (remapped) and its heavier

 

[Hutchie]

just spend 4k on a rocket and ducktape it to the roof

 

[Sean_R27]

Think about unsprung weight, they have aluminium bells so they'e bigger and lighter

 

[Fred@BTM]

you'll save what? 2kg?? still a completely pointless thing to do when it already has 312mm brakes
