Mazda MX5 1.8
i can almost hear the gearbox imploding already lol
really a waste of money when there is a GTT which is built to take turbo pressure and is a 1.4 too

waste of money ??
so if you get given a free car aka a clio 1.4 energy
and have a spre turbo or two
and all the gaskets to take the engine apart and rebuild
i ask you would it know seem like a waste of money

I thought that 14 sec qtr mile was quick especially from a 1.4 I know that r5 turbos have gone well under this by as much as 3 secs (not what you'd call std though)
you'll need a lot more than a turbo and a few gaskets mate
injectors, standalone ECU (emerald dta omex etc), 2bar map sensor plumbing into the inlet/changing if there already is one, custom manifold, custom downpipe, inetercooler, piping, oil take off, water take off, oil cooler, etc etc
for what... 182 pace?
just get a 172 for 4k?

and the CAMPARSE as it is known has done loads of clio16v . and i think it's also dune a few willys as well:lolup:
1.8 8v RSi
do it mate.....if not spend the money on doing the conversion for me as i have the same engine....hehe.....i'll look forward to seeing the end result...don't listen to the negative things on here i think its a good idea....even if u do have 172 pace from the conversion then thats good enough.....would make a great sleeper

so lets sum up the bhp per pound
free clio free gaskets free turbo
built on a budget like the camparse
think that works out at about 1000 bhp per £

that wots good about wot i wonna do . it aint about the money its about the fun
:rasp: :rasp: :rasp: :rasp:
these are injection engines i take it?
free clio free gaskets free turbo
bigger injectors (100 quid)
standalone ECU (emerald dta omex etc) 600 + 100 for loom + 400 mapping fee
2bar map sensor (40quid?) plumbing into the inlet/changing if there already is one,
custom manifold about (800 quid for a tubular stainless one) or you could try and bodge a flange onto the standard cast manifold?
custom downpipe, 100 from a powerflow place
intercooler, 300?
piping 200?
oil take off, and braided oil lines (30?)
water take off
oil cooler 150?
etc etc

When I first read the title I was about to reply and say don't bother as its not worth it, but as its for a bit of fun (and something I would quite like to see done) then I would say go for it. Ask over on retro-renault.co.uk and chris_h over there will basically be able to tell you about exactly what would be needed, what cars it can be taken from etc etc (the man is like an encyclopedia when it comes to older renaults, lol.)

Nice one, keep us updated with whats going on. I've actually seen it suggested a few time on some forums but usually the suggestion is shot down.
Still gonna cost a bit though surely as you will need better brakes and a bottom end rebuild to make sure its all upto handling the power increase. and then you will need suspension upgrades. If you have all that already or can get it free then go for it but this will cost serious money i bet.
Good luck

Cheaper to buy a 182 :S
182 wont run 13 second SQM's though... hell they struggle to break into the 14's for most of them

is that a joke?
is that a joke?
Stock can be remapped although not ideal but still cheaper.
Forget the oil cooler use better oil and oil temp gauage sand see what happening.
A few of those parts could be got second hand for a scrappie cheap.
WHy lower the CR unless your going for massive boost even then go for water injectiomn/intercooler etc instead.
Only as people were stupid and wacked the boost up and treathed them badly. There reliable if done right after all Rewnault did use them for some quick rally cars relaibleity at high HP.
As for the box its quite ok realy depends on abuse plus a stock ones old so you don't know the abuse its hard. If they made brand new ones today still you'd know they were reliable.
GT isn't built to be turned it just happnes to have the pipes and lower CR.
Its a good idea IMO good fun but not cost effective for the effort realy but still what is effective these days hope you enjoy yourself.
