Work done by GDI/AWT, exhaust by MIJPerformance.
205bhp, 177lb/ft.
Spec is,

AWT billet cams
AWT stage 1 manifold
OMEX 600
172 ph1 cable throttle body
viper
sports cat
2.5" custom single exit exhaust
silicone bend

Leda coilovers

I have only had it for a few days but as follows.

Firstly thanks to Andy (GDI) and Ben (AWT) for there input into the car. Although the car took a bit longer then the original schedule it was obvious that Andy had put alot of effort into getting it right.

Under the bonnet all the work is neat and tidy. The engine had been cleaned and the inlet manifold painted black (see pics) which looks nice. Andy obviously takes pride in his work.

The transformation over the standard engine is quite amazing. There is no 5000rpm kick just smooth power from 2500rpm onwards. Torque as you can see from the graph comes in higher then the standard engines peak at only 2500rpm! This for me is the basis for a useable road application as you do not want to be ringing its neck all the time to get the power.

Points to note. Cold start takes a few attempts. The OMEX still needs some fine tuning due to jerkiness when off the throttle below 3000rpm (I have only had the car for a few days at the time of writing and Andy is in the process of resolving this problem in conjunction with OMEX).

Because the OMEX is used you lose traction control and the trip computer, mpg etc. which for me neither is any great loss.

The use of the cable throttle makes a big difference. It makes throttle control much more direct and responsive as the slow fly by wire system is replaced.

Overall a few minor niggles that are soon forgotten about when you push the loud pedal into the carpet. The noise and accelleration bring a smile to my face every time.

Re: ***do not post*** thread for modded clios

Martin.

Clio 16v hybrid:

My 2.0 valver has a fully rebuilt F7r done by Nick Hill @Hillpower. The only modifications to the rebuilt lump are lightened/balanced flywheel, Hill Power Chip, Supersprint Exhaust Manifold, Hill Power Induction Kit & Ashley Exhaust with de-cat. With these mods the car makes around 165bhp... With the car being stripped out completly the weight is down from 980kgs to circa 900kgs. The car has run 14.1@98mph on the quarter mile. Interior has 2 lightweight Cobra Imola buckets (6kgs each) Luke harnesses & Sparco steering wheel.
Suspension is Avo shocks & springs with Front strut brace. Brakes are drilled discs and uprated pads. Polycarbonate windows are going in soon...

Re: ***do not post*** thread for modded clios

lucky

ENGINE

Jenvey throttle bodies set up.
Omex 600 ECU.
AWT cams.
182 exhaust manifold.
Larger injectors.
Sports CAT and stainless 'stealth' exhaust (K-Tec)

Car produces 222bhp @ 7500 rpm & 178ft/lbs torque @ 5500 rpm

SUSPENSION/BRAKES

FK Coilovers, fully lowered at rear, lowered more than enough at the front!
OMP Front & Rear strut braces.
K-Tec Front and Rear drilled discs with PF97 pads.

WHEELS/TYRES

17" Speedline Turini's with Toyo proxies (For Road)
15" Compomotive CXR's with Yoko A539's (For Track)

BODYWORK

Standard 172 bodykit, Carbon fibre bonnet with pins and Carbon fibre front splitter to match.



I purchased my car around jan/feb this year, from day 1 i loved it, but as always the modding bug took over.

The first treatment it recieved was from K-Tec in order for me to have it ready for the French Car Show 05. It had a Sports CAT and stainless exhaust fitted, Upgraded front and rear brakes and the FK Coilovers fitted. I also had it superchipped and a piperX viper fitted locally. Following this I was really happy, for a while.....

Around september time i decided to go to the next stage with my car. I looked into turbo's but decided it probably wouldn't be reliable enough with me at the wheel. So I spoke to Andy at GDI who pointed me in the direction of throttle bodies. The conversion took place over the end of sept/beginning of oct, when i picked the car, to say there was a big difference is still an understatement, wow.....the noise, the speed, so much torque.

Sadly i haven't been able to record any official times for 0-60 or top speed or anything, hopefully next year!

The quality of the conversion is very good and reliability is excellent (apart from a recent burst PAS pipe). Andy also did a great job with the mapping too, i can still achieve excellent fuel economy under 'easy' driving.

To end, GDI come highly recommended, as do throttle bodies. Now, about getting more power.....

Re: ***do not post*** thread for modded clios

Rich_16v formerly known as: clio16v1996

CAR SPEC:
Full respray in Ford Imperial Blue including all plastics and rubbers
16” inch lightweight Speedline Turini’s powder coated in Trophy steel colour
205/40 Yokohama Parada tyres all round
Hi-Spec big brake conversion on front: 300mm drilled and vented discs on gold anodised lightweight alloy bells, gold-anodised billet four-pot callipers, braided hoses, Greenstuff pads
Height adjustable coilovers
Flush boot and bonnet
Deadlocked
Full Cat back stainless steel 70mm Magnex exhaust system and custom decat pipe
Half Safety Devices roll cage
Stripped out interior
Polished phase 1 steering wheel
Fully degreased engine bay with engine block sprayed silver aswell as exhaust manifold
Polished rocket cover, battery cover, Map sensor cover and Power steering fluid reservoir cover
Colour coded engine mount cover and plastics
Chrome strut caps
Blue Magnecore leads
Full blue samco hose set
Carbon fibre Viper induction kit with blue samco inlet elbow
Carbon fibre strut brace
Group N clutch
Soft pedal conversion

With the clio 16v like any other 'old skool' hot hatch there are some very tired for examples around these days, luckily enough I own what i'd like to think is one of the best cared for examples around. The car hasn't had any major performance modifications done but all the upgrades on the car add to its original spec as a lightweight and well balanced car with a good power to weight ratio making it great fun to drive and very under rated. The driving position in these cars is excellent and far superior to the modern day clios. The standard seats in these cars are very compfy and figure hugging especially in the later phase 2 models. The only let down is the lack of an adjustable steering column. From my experience after market exhausts are not always the best of fits on these cars especially if lowered alot due to contact with the rear beam so expect a bit of fiddling around to get it hung correctly. The quietest models available are the magnex systems. The clutch pedals on these cars are very heavy but don't worry its perfectly normal. Popular cosmetic changes to the earlier phase 1 clio 16v models are the addition of various phase 2 bits like 'U' shaped front grill, hipped rear clusters, clear fog lights, chunkier side bump strips and carbon effect boot strip. In my opinion the single best modification done to my car has to be the brake upgrade, even though the standard brakes are a good set-up. The 4 pots give excellent stopping power and the addition of braided hoses give very good pedal feel and driver confidence. Overall i'd say a buyer gets what they pay for with these cars, maintenance costs can be high on the routinely 'thrashed' examples. Jobs such as cambelt changes can be expensive due to the tight engine bay and cosmetically the rear arches are very prone to rust. Overall though excellent cars and it'll be a sad day when I eventually part with mine!

Most of the mods above have been carried out by either the previous owners themselves or a local garage apart from the cams, verniers, SMT6 that was carried out by GDI.

The car has come a long way in the last 3 years since the engine was fitted and I seem to have either bought the final product or I’m the goon who it’s going to blow up on!!

Anyway in the short time I have owned it I’m well impressed with the car, I mainly bought it for Track Days but I also currently use it everyday which it’s not exactly practical for given how lumpy it is for slow driving and the piddly 20 litre tank, but when I took it to Donington shortly after buying it I was well impressed. The car goes very well and holds the road even better, there are a few things I’m probably going to do myself in the future to hopefully improve it some more and get the most out of it on Track Days.

Re: ***do not post*** thread for modded clios

Renault Clio 16v Cup - Raced in Renault UK Cup Series.

1992
13000 Miles

Chassis Setup - Standard Renault Clio 16v Chassis, 3/4 degrees negative front
camber, adjusted front castor, slight toe in adjustment. Front & Rear quick
release bonnet pins. Weight approx 950kg.

Interior - Sparco FIA Race Seat, Willians 5 point harness, 6 point Devil Cage
with rear arch support. Fire exstinguisher plumbed into engine bay & c**kpit
area. Emergency exterior engine cut off and extingushire release. Rally saftey
net, Race pedals.

Suspension - Decarbon Race Shocks, Dampers & Race springs, with williams track,

Wheels - Lightweight Magnesium Speedline alloys
Tyres - 195/45/15 Slicks / Wets / road going Yoko's

Engine - 'Blueprinted' (lightened internals) FP7 1.8 16v approx 150bhp, upgraded
'Cup' ECU (8000rpm), Open induction. Dual fog light air feed. Full clio race
exhaust with decat.

Brakes - Standard front/rear discs with upgraded race pagid pads. Brake cooling
feed through front bumper.

Brief Summary

This car is all about the corners. It handles extremely well with little or no
understeer during high speed cornering. Using the upgraded rev limit, its
possible to out handle many performance cars with ease. Open up the engine on
the straights and will pull 0-60mph in under 7 seconds and then screams to
100mph shortly after that! Although this clio has no LSD, the car still drags
you progressively and controlable into the corners setting you up, just right
for powering out of the exit.

A fantanstic little pocket rocket, which out performs many exotics on the track.

Re: ***do not post*** thread for modded clios

2 live

rebuilt megane block, new rings shells etc, williams head with reworked valves seats, williams box, competition clutch, kent cams and verniers, chip wizards re-map, b&m short throw shifter, megnecore leads, k&n filter(open in winter, panel filter in oe box in summer) AVO coilovers, devil de-cat coupled to a powerflow cat back zorst.


well this was the BEAST spec. 14.0 1/4 @98, 0-60 roughly 5.5-6.0 secs top speed....errrr never hit the limiter in top on me own tbh, been off the clocks tho ;)


since the kent cams fukt up tho, iv reverted back to a std 1800 valver head(due to kent cams malfunction destroying the williams head) williams cams, all on same meg block, and running with the remapped ecu also. will still see off cammed, not mapped willies, i.e thejesus hehe.



all work done by 2 LIVE TUNING (except the re-map)at a total cost of less than 3000, including buying the engine and gearbox, complete package inc car, several boxes, 2 engines, and all uprated parts stands me at less than 8k

Re: ***do not post*** thread for modded clios

TheJesus

factory standard interior and exterior (although the nob before me changed the gear stick...if i find him he's a dead man)

Engine:

K&N panel filter (OE airbox)
BB tuning decat pipe
Powerflow stainless center and backbox
Standard Williams head and manifold
Megane bottom end (now on 28k)
AWT 263 duration custom cams
AWT custom 'Williams' gold pulleys
Standard unmapped ECU

The car feels fantastic to drive, there is always power at anything over 2k to pull you up the steepest of hills or leave most traffic behind and when you press the loud pedal... all hell breaks loose... The car seems to make over standard power at all revs until 6k, where it goes completely mental for 500rpm then it's change gear time... which stops all the fun. I have run the car on an ECU mapped for 7'200rpm on Kent 260 cams which is closer than the standard map but not spot on and it really brings the car's modifications into their own. The power surge at 6'000rpm is even more apparent and you get the full sensation of the power for longer and gives the added advantage of allowing the car to hit over 60mph in second to further flatter the 0-60 time, which normally requires the driver to change to 3rd gear. All in all Ben and Andy (AWT/GDi) are on a very small and exclusive list of who I let work on my car. Williams owners are very careful and paranoid to a degree of where to take their pride and joy, especially for tuning, but can highly recomend their work, especially Ben Rushworth's cams, which as proven by RR results are probably the best on the market.

Started life off as a 1.2 16v extreme which I soon added alloys and a Remus duplex exhaust. This was the Clio with the nasty green and black seats which I thought were cool at the time of purchase. How wrong I was!
About 2 months after I bought it I obtained 2 front Renault sport seats from a broken mk1 172 and a mk2 172 rear bumper so they went on.
I was tooing and frowing about what I wanted to do next to the ‘beast’ I drove it hard and the little 1.2 engine couldn’t take it anymore and decided to break. I was going down the motorway one evening from work and a massive ploom of white smoke was emitted from the exhausts, which I later discovered to be a broken bottom end and hole in the head. The car was on 37k and was just out of warranty; I didn’t know what to do at this time.
I decided that it would probably cheaper to fit a brand new engine my self rather than re build the bottom end, so I approached matt from Clio TT fame and asked him to supply a 1.4 or 1.6 lump. “You need a 172 conversion” was his reply on the phone, I thought about it for all of a day and that weekend I was up in Accrington parting with some hard earned.
A week later my conversion kit arrived and I started planning my Clios fate!
I planned the conversion over two weeks and took the time off work to get it done wiring for the first week and engine and mechanical for the second this was now the month of March.
I ordered new bearings and pipes etc, a viper FK coils and fluids all ready for the conversion.
Engine and loom were done in 5 days but the gearbox was gone and the ECU was knackered. The car wouldn’t start so it took a trip to Renault specialist breakers where matt fitted an r-sport ECU and new UCH and programmed the key in started up but the box was still broke, they gave me a plain 172 box but my loom was a cup so the box did work but no Speedo!
Got it on the road after fitting the box and a brand new clutch it was sweet the noise was fantastic and effort rewarded!
The next day it all went wrong, the aux belt must have been loose and found its way into the cam belt, making the cam belt jump and bending 8 valves, I wasn’t happy!
I phoned matt and discussed the options I decided that I would have a brand new block off him, so I paid and he had it at my house by dinner time. At 8pm that night the car was up and running again.
The next morning matt had organised a rolling road day which I was to attend, I was on my way on the M61 when the wheels nuts came loose and I crashed the car into the barrier bad luck got me again!
Got the car to the garage on the back of a pick up provided by the RAC. Spare wheel on (alloy which fell of was knackered!) and a damaged wing on inspection were all the damaged sustained.
In May the gearbox went again ended up with a big hole in it so I got a 172 cup one and had some quife gear sets fitted and a full rebuild and a 24k warranty.
A decat was fitted and some up rated engine mounts.
In July the car was finally finished everything worked even got the electric power steering and ABS to work with the cup’s loom.
