Quite handy for Twingo RS owners if the K4 is being tweaked.

Be nice to see a few with 182 rivailing power.

I asked if anyone knew the spec of the TWingo RS lump in the release shot thread but no-one knew. Would be interested to know where the other 20hp came from and if they retained the same inlet tract!

Cams should be here today, after weeks of promises from the supplier. Oil cooler and battery box are both on there way too :D

The K4M has massive potential, whilst I know it will never have the torque of a 2.0, I revel in the fact that its A) Unique B) Have a damn good go at a ITB build.
You have 220bhp? Or will have, I'll be touching 200bhp in a lighter car..........We'll see ;)

Cat are being absolute retards with the cams, claiming no-ones ordered them or paid now. when there's credit card receipts to prove it. I'd use Shrick or C+B but neither are as wild as the Cats.....

Oil cooler arrived yesterday along with braided hoses and thermostatic plate. The cams are at Angelworks and installed in the car so it's waiting on the ECU being installed adn then off for mapping....

The inlet system on the Twingo K4M is so much better than the crappy plastic plenum they used to come with!

I´m not sure if it´s realy made of cast-aluminium, or only silver painted plastic....I never have seen the RS in natural.

But length and diameter look better for high revs.

would the twingo stuff wouldnt fit on the clio's engine? or would that be pointless? (assuming it is metal and could be errr "worked on" - cant remember what its called)

i am still seeing pencil coils....... lets hope they are more reliable!
