Industrial Trophy - Megane content.

[Whiteley]

I've had absolutely nothing on this weekend, so I spent some time on the Megane for a change and gave it 'the works'. This is quite rare for me, but I'm chuffed with the results and it might inspire me to keep ontop of it a bit more!

A few photos, raped by Photobucket as usual:

Cheers

Nice car mate, i dont know anything about the trophy meganes, are they along the similar lines as the clio, only get them in grey, sach dampers and a limited run?

Nope, no plans to either. This is the nice sensible daily car!

I agree, photo's never quite do it justice, the colour in particular.

Fankoo.

Similar in a way to the Clio's. Only 500 made, 159 of which came to the UK so its a bit rarer than the Clio, Nimbus grey only, different interior to the rest of the range (not Recaros). Apart from that, it's just a Cup-packed 225 really with all the toys, no fancy Sachs setup. 2 options on them, Xenons and Cabasse stereo, mine has both.

Very nice Chris, I've seen cleaner megs this weekend though

Pah

Forge intercooler, Forge hoses, Forge BOV & ITG panel filter, think that's about it. Forge BOV is going back for repair as it seems to be leaking, tempted to swap it for a recirc though as I'm bored of the chav spec 'tscchhhh'.

 

[lbrench]

yeh im looking at recirc valves at the moment, looking at getting forge intercooler and hoses soon aswell for stage 2, on stage 1 mine did 254bhp, all i have done is panel filter and remap so your figures are really good! u must have a strong engine unlike mine lol

I'll no doubt go back for stg2 at some point, no great rush and I need to spend some money on other bits first. Brakes and engine mounts mainly. It pulled 233bhp on standard map so quite a strong one yeah.

How rude!

It does sit quite high at the front, almost 172 Cup like with the back being reasonable and the front in the air. No plans to touch anything suspension related mind.
