No adam it just sits like that, may be the Box mount is all from a 172 from Renault.
Weve just fitted a Swirl pot and Out tank Fuel Pump this is to reslove the issue with the fuel surge,
Weve fited a Fill Touch screen on Dash Montoring unit that runs the omex software and give sus a more updated and acurite settings than a gauage and we now can see what our intake temps are

Few Updated as of Wednesday 30th September.
We Purchased from Renault 4 x Megane R26R injectors at a very good price. We had a issue that the injectors we were using were maxing out on 95% throttle meaning that the car was over fuling to keep it safe by keeping the injector open, this was always a tempary issue till i sorted the Injectors. We fitted the 225 Injectors today at the mappers a direct replacment with the throttle bodies and now the car reves a lot freer and top end is so much better, now only on 69%duty.
We also were sufferring from Fuel surge due to been ill advised on the fuel tank we fitted ( i knwo youll bite ) :O So we decided the only real option was a Swirl Pot install, This was a cheap but so far effective way of solving the Issue.
We fitted a 2 Litre Swirl pot that was £70 from Ebay
a Low pressure high capacity Lift Pump £75 from my local Rally stockest
a Bosh 401 out tank Fuel Pump £140 from my local rally stockest.
Were having a alloy cover for it all made incase we had a accident, or a pipe blows off
301 Braded Steel Hose.
The car doesnt seem any more powerful apart from the top end really seems to be breating and wanting to rev
We have a OMP Tow eye coming this week too as the original Rernault one is not the best to get the tow hookinto.
Looking forward to a Track weekend this weekend and Marham
Sorry for the lack of photos were on Vodafone Dial up as weve had a disagrement with Bt at the moment

ITB'd MK1
what injectors did you have before? There's no "function" that makes them go to fully open on an omex ECU. Any idea what firmware version your ECU runs?
TVR Cerbera
Standard injectors before, what he means is the injectors were open nearly all the time. firmware? there is only what was released with the ecu from omex or do you mean the 0.70 bit?
TVR Cerbera
surprised that it doesnt seem much quicker than Whiteley's in a straight line actually :O
looks HOT though
carl
I think that's because whiteley's is lighter and andy isn't as brave as whiteley yet
lol
JDM Dc2
as people always say to me about my fez... from watching that vid both yours and whitleys looks pretty evenly matched on the striaghts, is it worth all the money you've had spent on the engine lol?...

Just seen this. The cars defo faster up the straights, in that video chris was tailing me causing the air to float over the top of him and meaning i was pulling him along if you see me weeving trying to get rid. on the begining you see how i am pulling away, i dont think at the speeds that we were getting up too that there would be much differene in top end... i let off far afr afr too early compaired to the boys
The lads will even comment that the car is faster up the straights, and like i said my driving is at fault tbh.
The restriction of bonnet is holding the car back massiev ammounts we cant get enough air into the ITBS, its all blocke doff by the bonnet, Some thing that we need to reslove, as far as i am aware we are the 1st f4red ITBs clio in the UK, so have no help on what other shave done as the trumpets sit so far forward.....
Defo worth every penny spent. things will get better once the handleing is sorted out
Side ways Danny - Well you can, we had ours working leik that, my mapper is very very good

PH1 loads of boost!
Look at the exit speeds of the corners, if both cars were going thru the corners at the same speeds then Andy's would drive away on the strights.
Get someone with a bit more experience behind the wheel of the yellow one and I dare say it will drive away from the camera car.

Well few updated.
After my last track day we just couldnt get the clio to handle as well as other at the last weekend, so ive purchased some new coil overs
Weve decided too go the WIDE track Way.
Weve got out hands on some
Clio 172 Hubs
Clio 172 Wish Bones
Clio 172 Calipers
We were running a 1.2 Rack and to be honest the lock too lock was 4.4, not great and some thing we didnt think about when doing this car so top end speeds the car felt very light and not responsive so ive been talkign to Foxy and hes informed me the Williams Rack is the one too go for, so with help from MATT brown hes sorted me a few bits.
Ive got a
Williams Rack
Williams Colum
Williams ARB
So i had to order some coil overs to suit the New wide track so i got my self some GAZ Fully adjutsable coil overs front and back Coolio
So its all going on this week as i have sold the FK Coil overs from the valver...
Also we had issues as earlyer on the thread about Fuel surge.. so weve fitted a High Flow lift pump and Bosh motorsport pump!
With a 2litre swirl pot..
Now with this all being up back and open too us, we were told to get it covered over, so i contacted my local lads who do steel work and they made us a box to protect us in a crash... i know this adds weight but i feel safety is a prime concern
Here are soem pix
