Project: MRS2: Water Intercooling & elec. Pop Off Steering
a small gimmick:
first system:
because the cleaning I no longer need the headlight cleaning system.
therefore I have the system used for a water cooling of the intercooler, and it's controlled depends the boost pressure.
so the water consumption is kept within limits.
second system:
electrically switch between original pop off valve and the open hks pop off.
regulatory strategy:
the hks pop-off can be operated alone, or in combination with the water cooling of the intercooler.
but in return, the water cooling not alone.
the immobilizer diode still blinks as usual. of course, also at ignition off etc.
here shown in pictures:
system off / original pop off valve active:

Project: MRS2: Conversion Alpine / Apple iPod Multimedia
needed parts:

Ipod classic 6.5g 160gb, anthracite, engraved for the provided field of application (is used only for in / the MRS2):

navi antenna lengthened and soldered on mass:

also the radio antenna, and additionally split for tmc:

hidden install, and yes, reception is here:

mike the freisprechanlage also elongated to mass / provided with receptacle,
and fitted into the sun visor holder, and yes, you understand me best:

display from the CRS3, otherwise it works (the original cabasse display) not with the alpine interface:

specially prepared ipod console for the center-fold:

all the required line rates elongated to mass, so that it also comes behind almost like original:

double din frame adapted / painted high gloss similar to the oem look:

in it, and without bungle:

the original cabasse system completely removed, incl. the unneeded antenna cables,
and the right car boot cover exchanged with a "basic version", also a need for the following car audio installation, finish:

Project: MRS2: Conversion Quaife ATB & Metal Catalyst
all needed parts:

removed from above:

also from below:

already out:

fixed on the holder:

dissembled is fast:

unpacked the ATB, unscrewed the crown:

mounted new bearings, screwed the crown:

inside and is already turning by itself:

mounted the other parts:

all cleaned, apply the sealant and mounted the cover, mounted the outer parts and ready to install in the MRS2:

back into it:

all mounted from below:

also from above:

again a familiar image:

finish:

not to forget to fill in the lifetime warranty card and send it to quaife:

at the same time installed the metal catalyst:
yet installed here, space completely filled:

without mounted gearbox and front axle, very easy to dissamble:

conversion both lambda sensors:

mounted the metal catalyst and it remains very much space:

from above also all good. all connections are in the right place:

mounted the shield, looks like original, finish:

a part of the perfect fitting leather to the rest of original leather of the MRS2 brought to perforate,
and then inked the hole-edge by hand (two zones per seat have two-tone perforated leather):

"Renault sport" lettering adapted to the mRS2 version and further added "megane trophy":

and below "recaro" replaced with the serial number:

Project: MRS2: Full Integrated BPC2 Chip & Mapping Selecor
BPC2 Chip, program cable for the laptop, placebo-plug (if bpc2 should stay away):

BPC2 Chip engine harness:

BPC2 Chip mapping selector harness (prototyp):

greater injectors:

headlights bright wide adjuster on the left for the BPC2 mapping program selection
(I have xenon, therefore I don't have it in as original):

not used harness and connectors in the e box in the engine compartment:

here the other ends comes out in the interior:

made a new harness and supplemented with the com connectors of the BPC2:

connected with original harness, where ends in the engine compartment:

the BPC2 Chip mapping selector harness goes also to the dashboard instruments (with not used original cables),
to show there, which mapping program is chosen (follows later):

here the used original harness to the headlights bright wide adjuster, now mapping selector:

fitted the carpet again, the two com connectors end in storage compartment in the driver foot space.
the BPC2 Chip is easy to operate now, and isn't in the engine compartment as normaly:
so easy as to dock and undock an ipod:

mounting an original Renault connector on the BPC2 harness:

connected to the original harness in the e box, and the rest to the motor electronics periphery:

changed the original injectors with the greater:

connect the latest pins to the headlights bright wide adjuster connector and mounted the switch unit:

positon 4 I have mecanical blocked, because the BPC2 Chip has 4 program places:
0= original / 1-3= various mappings:

how I incidentally change and write the plans, it looks to me like this, finish:

Project: MRS2: Conversion CRS3 Steering Wheel
...meanwhile, there are nicer original steering wheels from renault as the mrs2 version.
thus comes the version of the clio 3 rs in my mrs2. nice grippy and shaped, and somewhat smaller.
airbag and cruise control buttons fits without problems:

shade of plastic and leather and the grain and perforation of the leather would fit well in the interior of the mrs2.
the red center mark would just go still like that. but unfortunately, the light gray stitching and silver plastic parts don't.
thus, from an initially thought "mini project in between", which can run within a day, to one, for the final result, rather more complex project.
in terms of time, until all ingredients are far, in any case...
parts concerned:

fair, also a new gearshift lever:

and these parts must first go to the paint shop.
the inside door handles also, because they are / were the only remaining parts in silver in the interior:

gloss black is called for, so it fits perfectly to the interior:

and yes, instead of the originally "renault sport" now "trophy". of course in matching RAL code:

the steering wheel is back from the saddler.
middle marker in orange leather, the holes of the perforated leather not dyed in orange (too much):

perfectly matching orange leather pieces found, not self-evident:

original parts removed:

airbag module removed:

the connections from the buttons and the bugle unplugged and the original steering wheel removed.
the clio 3 rs steering wheel mounted (plug & play):

All connectors and pin assignments fit without modifications:

the trophy cover also attached:

airbag cables plugged in, airbag module click in:

sake of fair, in addition a new gearshift knob installed:

finished:

then test drive, cruise control and bugle tested - works. airbag indicator light stays dark.
