RenaultSport 172.
becuase you'l get more power from these than the GTT lump. remember the GTT lump is designed to pull a small car.....not saying the clio is massive but there is abig comparison between the two....
willy engine standard will beat a gtt lump in a clio....
depends if your going to do it properly....ie some people jsut whack a bleed valve on and wind the boost up......BANG. and some people forge the internals...steel liners etc.

i have a 172 conversion but if i had the choice you have now would be volvo turb just like a kid when you hear that psshhh. (just for the dumpy that will make you smile after a crud day at work
)
plus volvos dont get humped like gtt lumps
)plus volvos dont get humped like gtt lumps
ive heard that the volvo engine is harder and more expencive to get more power out of though, not too sure how true it is though.
the manual choke of the gtt engine put me off tbh, and the fact that theres not many un-ragged ones about.
the other thing bout the phase 3 conversions is the immobliser plays up but ive heard that its easy to get around if ytou know how
really like the car, ive got a silver 1.4 phase 3 on them wheels too lol
i needs some coilovers! do the wheels hit the arches or anything?
Clio 1.4 Maxim

Gave It A Clean, Took Some Arty Pics(i think)
well gave it a quick clean today, only took about an hour normally spend about 6 lol, so its not perfect but black once again not brown, i used snowfoam on my dads budget pressure washer work's fine for me, i polished using SRP a while back and used chemical guys Wet Look, and giving it a clean today the dirt just fell off, am very impressed anyways heres some pics
Heres The Outcome,
Bearing in mind it wasnt polished today, quite shiny,
and then i took some arty pics,
quite disappointed this is blury

i see in your name thing on the side, you have a clio gt, got any pics or any info on this conversion am in 2 minds to go either gtt and tune it well, or 16v in my 1.4, or just buy a valver if some one buys mine.
You can get them from loads of places mate, ebay, halfords, modding shops, really easy to find
