bigger turbo on 1.5 dci?



  clio 1.5 dci 80
is it possible to replace the standard turbo of a dci 80 to something more powerful and what turbo can anyone recomend to me? prices?
 
  clio 1.5 dci 80
thats besides the point. love the torque and power of the dci. want to make the car my own. not settle for factory standard again

Also get a up rated clutch and couple things then remap it and the standard turbo would get more than 130bhp
 
copied this straight of cliodci.net

so it might be worth taking some of the things mentioned it to consideration mate before turning up the boost, cause i bet you dont want to spend a bit of money on a turbo only for the rest to let you down.

65 bhp -
No blue letters in the word DCI on the sidestrip.
No intercooler.
Turbo is a 5435 970 0000 Borg warner K series.
JB3 gearbox pretty much same as 1.6 16v.
Engine codes - K9K 704, K9K 700
OVAL PLATE CB07 (Inside of drivers door)
Standard Turbo Boost Pressure = 1 Bar (14.5psi)
Standard Fuel Pressure = 1400psi
No intercooler


80 bhp -
Blue I in the word DCI on the sidestrip.
Large Intercooler located infront of the radiator.
Injectors 15% more efficient than 65's.
Slightly different turbo to 65 (5435 970 0002 Borg warner K series).
JC5 gearbox pretty much same as 2.0 16v. From 2004 onwards JH3 and JR5 boxes were also fitted.
Engine code - K9K 702
OVAL PLATE CB08
Standard Turbo Boost Pressure = 1.2 Bar (17.4psi)
Standard Fuel Pressure = 1400psi

100 bhp -
Blue CI in the word DCI on the sidestrip.
Small fat intercooler (17% more efficient than 80 ic). Located infront of the radiator at the bottom.
Same injectors as 80.
Same fuel pump as 65 & 80 but runs at 1600 bar
Again, more efficient, variable geometry turbo (5439 970 0030 Borg warner K series)
Different block and head and different injection set up to 65 & 80 with the 100 having a stronger crank, stronger rods and pistons.
Inlets on the head are bigger, different cam and ex manifold.
Gearstick, reverse is down and right as opposed to up and left with the lift.
Gearbox is a JR5 120. (5 Speed box as fitted to petrol lagunas, no renault 6 speed box fits!)
Engine code - K9K 712.
OVAL PLATE CB2G
Standard Turbo Boost Pressure = 1.25 Bar (18.1psi)
Standard Fuel Pressure = 1600psi

Misc -

The reason the Pistons were changed on the dci 100 was due to the extra fuel pressure causing issues with the 65/80 pistons - worth noteing if you plan on changing fuel pressure

The dci 65 and dci 80 turbo is good for 1.5 bar but the dci 65 will NEED an intercooler to reach these sort of figures reliably and really the dci 80 will need a dci 100 spec intercooler at least too!
 
Wont you need to spend tons of money on other upgrades, like injectors, ecu, charge cooler to support a bigger turbo and decent increases. What are the internals of a DCI good for power wise anyway?

Then you will probably need a better clutch and brakes, then you will need it to handle better and then you could of got something fast in the first place IMO.

injectors limit you to the 130hp mark so no point. there is NOTHING to replace them with either! unless you can get somewhere to make you custom ones, screw that!!! if ur really that fussed sell up and buy a 100 they are much better
