making a fast clio

[kypo]

hey, ive been thinking of a project for a while and im thinking of replacing the 1.4 clio rt engine with a renault 5 rebuild engine from http://www.bbperformancetuning.co.uk/products/department.asp?deptid=63http://www.bbperformancetuning.co.uk/ with a high preformace 330 bhp turbo. i like the idea of seeing a clio with a bump valve. but i also didnt know if a 2.0 16v williams lump with a supercharger would be nicer.

clio with 2.0 supercharged lump at 272bhp or clio with r5 1.4 and turbo running 330 bph?

well both conversions would fit and they will both perform nearly the same and cost around the same to do (properly) but just depends on the noise you want from the car. i know that you can get a r5 2.0 replacement so you can have a 2.0 and a high powered turbo, giving you a much better kick off the line.
