Management for K4M Turbo build

[Martin_172]

Looking for a bit of advice. I picked up an MOT failure 1.6 16v Clio mk2 for £100, I had one of these years ago and always found it a good little engine, anyway ive since got it on the road and after a few weeks of pondering what to do with it and some youtube time watching what some of the foreign boys have been upto ive picked up a Turbo exhaust manifold, intercooler and pipework for it.

Turbo charging it I'm fine with but the one part I know nothing about and looking to be pointed in the right direction with, to do a bit of research is management. Although I'm doing it on a budget as a bit of cheap fun I understand spending good money on good management and a good mapper is what makes or brakes a build like this so I think im looking for (unless someone tells me otherwise) something a little better than the megasquirt that these guys run!

options?

what ecu is on it?

should be Siemens Sirius I believe the same as the 172/182, ill pull it out for a look

was thinking it might be with it being the k4m engine. chris at efi will be able to sort it for you...http://www.efi-parts.co.uk/index.php?productID=338

what manifold did you go for? twr or whatever it is?

FANTASTIC! that's just the solution I'm looking for! will get in touch with him once ive got the car built. Yeah went for the TRW manifold and downpipe, waiting on it turning up. still to sort out a turbo, will stick a project thread up when parts start arriving!

we're just about to do the same on my lads twingo, k4m engine as well. started looking at using megane exhaust manifold as it's pretty close fit to begin with but he's had a pay rise so going down the fabricated tubular route now.

Looking forward to seeing how you get on with it, that was an option I looked at, if this turns out pretty handy moving it over to a Twingo.

you can use the twiglet ecu.
