Re: Turbo clio,
The car is a lot more built up than as shown on those pics.
As to the T25s, I have info that reads_with comp trim 60. & 0.63 HSG A/R turbine, they will flow 38.16Lbs per , & make BHP 414.58, at 12psi.
As you can see its built from a base clio, I have a factory V6, I did not want to mod it, hence what you see.
So to build a car with minimum hassle, dizzy from one of the cams & twin carbs .
Pistons are forged made to order, rods are Pankli forged , comp is set at 9.2, the engine will have water/ methanol injection to the manifold to reduce detonation. The exhaust manifolds are retainded due to better heat retention & less hassle with useing made up steel jobbies ( cracking giving off heat etc), also putting the turbos where they are theres room to up grade to T3 Garrettes if need be.and the heat is kept to the rear of the engine bay, ( I think heat may be a problem)
A intercooler will be used, maybe in the roof with a scoop to draw the air in, or remove the rear glass & have one on each side.
Its not a problem to make the power, as said, its a case of stopping any thing from blowing up.
The clutch question, at the moment I will use the stock job.From my time doing drag racing, a clutch useing counter weights works very well.In the states a company called "Centre Force" sell just such a thing.You have a very light foot pressure, but as the revs rise the counter weights inpart a clamping force to the cluch plate.
Borg & Beck also sell a clutch called a " Long Clutch",works the same though you can only get them for Yank V8s.
Stock clutches can be modded to work the same.
When the car is running, Ill try altering the duration of the cams, & play with the ignition settings.
I have a pair of T3 turbos, but I want to have some low end punch hence the T25s,big numbers are great, but strong power low down in the rev range, is usable & safe, your motor is less likely to blow!
Hope that gives you somthing to think about, Ill keep the site informed to how we get on, cheers tim
