12 miles last year, embarassing :LOL:

Done a few miles on way to mot station to rinse the old fuel. Stuck some fresh fuel in and took the long way back home giving it a couple of decent pulls. I can officially say the high rpm gearchange problem it had is fully resolved and you can bang it up a gear at 7500+rpm no problem.

Absolutely stoked that the gearchange issues have gone and new clutch feels great.

As its been off the road for ages i played sensible and kept it on wastegate pressure 8psi 276hp/240ft/lb. Just feels like a fast linear low boost conversion at that.

Checking out datalogs on return home ive managed to replicate its fuelling pulsation issues and its a bit lean up top so no more sends. Ill look at fitting the fuel damper and possibly the aem 400lph pump i have in stock. Then book into efi for mapping.

Thanks for reading!!

Sorry, but I’m going to say it. You may already have said it was on the list of jobs earlier on and I can’t remember but I would love you to upgrade that steering wheel. Really need it with this and then that cabin is spot on also.

Bloody love this Clio, your work, and sharing it. Legendary
Cheers mate! I might change the steering wheel at some point in the future as oem is a bit on the large side.

Updates.

Taxed today as 1st of the month. F me the tax is expensive on these compared to megane!

Weather outstanding today so took it out. First stop was to my mates garage for alignment as was a mile out due to new steering rack.

On geo lift.

Set toe to usual ten mins of toe out overall. Camber still set at -2.5. Steering feels great now with dci rack, no play or nothing. Turn in is mega especially with the gripper lsd.

Steering wheel straight again. Meta view pic.

Overall its running great but as usual bit of snagging to do.

Front tunnel exhaust heat shield is rattling on the exhaust a bit.

Adjust throttle map. The ttv twin plate clutch is snappy, and throttle is super responsive so its hard to pull away without whiplash.

Great to get it back out.

Thanks for reading!!
