Look at the wastegate FFS!

That's a serious build.

 

[Greeny.]

[Winston]

Wow indeed... but why not use a better engine? ie one thats meant to be turbo'd

 

[MarcoB]

It isnt even williams engine its a meggy engine iirc

 

[Winston]

Well if you want to be picky... Its not much like either in its current spec lol

But yes it was a Meggy F7R to start with

 

[Greeny.]

This guy has to much money.

Didnt the meggy F7R have bigger ports on the head?

 

[Russ_16v]

[Winston]

The megane head has larger valves

valver 32mm
Williams 33mm
Megane 34mm

[MarcoB]

A few years ago the guy that is building it gifted me a few bits for my Ibiza. Paul's a top guy, very gifted & clever.

At the time he worked for Prodrive too, not sure where he is now, but he carried over a lot of small details from 'work'

 

[midge]

615bhp iirc?

 

[mat-nos]

He already had the Reno engine, so it was as good as any

I had a dyno plot somewhere for it... I will try & dig it out

He quit so he could finish building this!
