superchargeing

[rob051179]

does anyone know can u supercharge a clio 16v? and how much would it cost?

Yep it can be done someone started doing one but sold it before they finished so no idea if it ever got done..
Theres not much space under the bonnet though for a supercharger though.

COst depends how far you want to go just got for a stock CR or use sme head gasgets to reduce the R or new lower compression arario pistosn or reworked bits.
BB do turboing which is easyier as they already have the kits and found the problems.

apart from turboing or superchargeing,what would make the most difference in power? someone did sugest nos but it can be very damageing

Normal tunning ie head work, throttle bodies, cams etc there loads of potential a new engine swop can be good value depend how much power or money you have.

NOS can be good its cheap power to get but if you use it its expensive to use. Properly setup it is safe and reliable.

^^ has anyone put NOS on a 172/182 ?

Matt Black used to use it in his Clio TT when it was running the 2Litre Cup (172) engine.

Mike@Rentech had it on the 172.

Matt lack used a huge shot on his can and due to setup kept blowing engine all the time.

is NOS worth it or is it just to much trouble? does anyone know where to have fitted and 2get some good advice from?

check out the wizzards of nos site, they are not cheap but they know there stuff from what i have read and seen, i saw mikey's 172 with nos nearly had it off him too and also summy is running nos too, doesnt cause a problem if its properly fitted and you keep the engine serviced new plugs ect

I believe Guy-S can shed some light on NOS....he seems very knowledeable about it in the past.

Theres a place that does supercharging for the 106 surely this could be modified with out too much hassle

Someone in europe has put a merc kompressor onto a coupe
