throttle bodies.

[sideways danny]

yeah it's the GDI kit

Never tried bike carbs, not really our thing Might be putting Omex ignition management on a williams with carbs soon though

 

[172Ben]

Seen alot of carbs on 205's but not very many on clios.

Been looking into it with megasquirt etc. Trying to save a few grand Otherwise i best get saving

 

[sideways danny]

205s use ultra crude ignition (not ECU controlled at all) and the fueling isn't good either, so carbs aren't really a backwards step. Throttle bodies are just a modern take on the theme

 

[Ali]

I liked the k-tec kit i seen on Adey's car also the one they had at FCS. Tasty kit.

 

[Adey.]

cheers ali had it fitted by omex/gdi all good, and it just got even better

 

[Owen:s]

and yet i still have a full kit in my garage collecting dust

 

[dunlop]

selling?

 

[Owen:s]

sale pending ,, back up tomorrow pms please for any details or info

 

[homer simpson]

no different pipe needed

that will be the crap kit with no air box

 

[Daz Clio Cup]

£2700 for just parts? hmm i doubt it

I don't

£1400 for jenveys with throttle linkage, manifold and air filter
close to £1000 for omex 600 and loom
and £600 for mapping

I know, i've done it myself too, but i couldn't help myself and went the whole hog, cams, pistons rods etc!

good job i bought mine second hand then

 

[Daz Clio Cup]

was over 18 months ago and things have got cheaper since

all the current gdi/k tec kits include a fully mapped ecu. the cost as said is in the tb's, manifold, loom, ecu, sensors, and all the billet brackets ect needed to make it a compleate kit. but you will not need to buy a single bolt extra as it is truly a fully comprehensive kit where as some cheaper options are far from the same.

No, it would be the ONLY kit that can be fitted with AC retained.

 

[homer simpson]

with out a air box tho as some tracks itb are to loud on drive by nose tests

 

[sideways danny]

Clearly this is based on speculation and not facts then. Lots of these kits are being used on track reasonably regularly. I dont deny an airbox would be nice if you can use one but you can't if you want to retain AC.

 

[Adey.]

never had a problem on any track with mine

 

[badger5]

been to donington lately? sound police there REALLY enjoy their job.. b*stards!

 

[Ali]

Too slow!

 

[Adey.]

oi lol, even when going slow its loudish,not done donny but been to a few places in the year and it didnt even get any old fasioned looks so im guessing it isnt that loud

no i know two people that had problems at donnington park and spa with drive by nose .

also you can use air con with the air box but you need a custom pipe for the air con i know this as i was looking at having itb's on my trophy

 

[homer simpson]

i was also not going to run a omex ecu on the car

 

[Barron]

the bodies we have just fitted are very loud! so loud that it set off a car alarm going down our street in the car ;D

 

[Dangerous_dave]

i had a mate fit itb to his 182, it was not very impressive, think our xpectations were very high tho... the throttle response was unbelievabley good tho, although i remember reading a review about a chap who fitted just an omex 600 standalone which 'apparantly' made a massive difference to throttle response.

Personally i dont itbs on clios are very good value for money.

 

[Dangerous_dave]

oh yeh and it used to sound mental spitting flames like a hench firework going off

 

[R20 CWH]

what bhp did he get?

 

[Dangerous_dave]

he claimed about 220bhp, i beg to differ, thought it was less when i drove it

 

[Barron]

what other mods did he have?

 

[Dangerous_dave]

um miltek system with decat. had remap but that was on origional ecu and the itbs set up on the omex, um...think that was about it...

 

[Barron]

car had full interior?

 

[Dangerous_dave]

ye full interior,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
, its not the silver one on pistons if thats what your thinking, apparently the silver 1 on pistons has no temp guage and hasnt worked since itb's fitted......or a fuel guage! lol

depends on plenty of things other than just putting bodies on. Mapping makes a HUGE difference.

Just fitting standalone (omex 600 in this case) can improve throttle response because the restrictions in the way it's set for emissions aren't there. Euro4 compliant cars (ph2 172 & 182) have little or no acceleration fuelling which is what can make them sluggish until higher in the revs.

 

[Dangerous_dave]

he had them fitted at a reputeable renault tuning company one of the bigger two, but i wont name names ;-)

 

[Peperami]

Black 182 by any chance?

 

[Dangerous_dave]

lol yes he was local!

 

[Barron]

link to silver one on PH?

 

[Dangerous_dave]

it appears to have been taken off i was lookiing at it last week see if i can dig the link out

 

[Dangerous_dave]

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/795032.htm

this is the one with no temp or fuel guages that work!

 

[Barron]

Philthy from here used to own that one

 

[Dangerous_dave]

he buy it off robbrown?
