biggest engine in a megane

[edybear]

whats the biggest engine or even the best engine i can fit in my megane coupe thats a prity strat swop thank in advace

 

[kpowell911]

I'm sure you could get an LS7 in there if you wanted, all comes down to how big you pockets are!

 

[Jaff.]

F7R. F4R with Clio pistons or F4rt

Only f7r will go in without messing with the electrics and going standalone, but even that requires some fiddling

the one I've linked below should be able to fit your requirements.

lol
i think somthing smaller i dont no what you mean but all these leters can you tell me what car ist out of and what litter plz

 

[Dan@SJM]

That's not even coherent??

 

[Gray]

Jus fit a 1.2 engine, it will be lighter.

Less weight = more bhp per ton.

lol

1,820 litres per cylinder

 

[Jaff.]

2.0 16v from a megane mk1 phase 1 and a late phase 2 (with Clio pistons)

F4Rt 2.0 16v turbo from a megane mk2

 

[edybear]

That's not even coherent??

sorry dude im dislexic i ment what car the engine is out of and what engine size im looking at a 2.0 megane engine but i was wondering if ther was say a 1.6 or 1.8 turbo or sumthing like that

 

[edybear]

ha very funy a 1.2 wont even go in this in less i did magor weight reduction and i was looking for a turboed engine or a engine to turbo about a 1.6 to 2.0 really a 1.2 would just die id kill it lol

 

[Jaff.]

Are you doing the work yourself?

can you wire in a standalone?
can you build engines?
are you any good with spanners?

You need to know if you can do all that before even choosing an engine. But as above plenty to fit in there only a handful that I've mentioned fit straight in on the mounts and all bar a 2.0 16v from a mk1 phase 1 will require electrical work

yeh im not bad with spaners and i can do most things with engine but i wont a engine that wiil fit strat in with new engine manegment and old looms its my every day car so i can only take off the road for a day or two

 

[Jaff.]

None then.

2.0 16v from a mk1 phase 1 (f7r engine) is your best bet. In which case you'd need a whole car for the engine loom and for the price of a Decent one your better off buying one and using it anyway

which engine do you have? 1.6 8v?

 

[edybear]

yeh i think so its a 1.6 but its got no power it reves fast but dosent get the speed up

 

[Jaff.]

Is it a phase 1 or 2?

The difference is on the front (mine is a phase 2 in my avatar for reference)

dont no its got a body kit on it lol

 

[Jaff.]

What's the reg?

 

[edybear]

r831mto

 

[Jaff.]

Phase 1 1.6 8v then.

2.0 16v is your only drop in option

and I wouldn't bother tbh

 

[edybear]

why not

 

[edybear]

can you get a 16v head for it

 

[Jaff.]

Because its cheaper to buy a 2.0 16v in the first place.

No there aren't many tuning options for your engine

Jaff is spot on...for the work involved, its easier and cheaper (if you factor in labour) to just get a 2.0 litre f7r engined Megane which came as standard...just DON'T buy the 'IDE' (Aids) engine version...

what do you mean aise engine

 

[Jaff.]

There's a 2.0 16v engine with direct injection (F5R or IDE) that is nothing but problems. Stay away from it

 

[Tim-182]

dont no its got a body kit on it lol

[danzel]

Put a RB26 in it?

 

[edybear]

is there any lower comprestion pistons for the 1.6 8v like with the puntos you could drop the 16v pistons into a 8v block and it would lower the comprestion so you could turbo with a remap

 

[Jaff.]

You cant remap your ecu

no 16v heads. No pistons I know of. Only thing I know of is a stainless manifold that fits the head.

 

[edybear]

well thats a piss take well the engine wont take boost with out decompreston will it decomp plate

 

[Jaff.]

Not aware of any plates for that engine. They're not a very tuneable engine

 

[edybear]

yeh cool chears any way dident you turbo your engine im reading it now

 

[Jaff.]

Yes that's an f7r (2.0 16v), its running on standalone ecu, I've had to build it myself, wire it myself and it takes more than a weekend to do

 

[edybear]

yeh i no that it dont take a weekend lol i was thinking of buying a old 1.6 engine and turboing it and droping in when its done but if there not meny tuning parts i might run it in to the ground and buy a new car in a year then this will be off to the grave yard lol its so f*****g slow 0 to 60 it takes for ever i thoght i was buying a sport car my old 1.0 16v micra was faster 0to6 lol but its done 138000 so its geting on may be sumthing wrong with the engine

 

[Jaff.]

Probably. They're only 90 bhp if I remember correctly anyway so never going to be rip your face off fast

 

[edybear]

yeh ill think ill just kill it and buy another fiat the so easy to mod ive just sold my old cinq that was crazy fast it did 2.0 gti lol

 

[Jaff.]

Probably best
