Why didn't you just buy a new Focus Rs, Megane 250
In the first place?

And whats the insurance on a supercharged 200?
Clio RSI 1.6
Supercharged 200 will be more insurance than the others

Surely the insurance of a Turbo/SC modded Clio will be more than a car that left the factory built to be aspirated? :S
My personal opinion is to only buy a car that was intended to be Turbo/SC from the factory, unless you want to throw money at the car, then engine and drivetrain reliability, traction etc are always potential issues.
It will also be a depreciation nightmare and more difficult to sell.

There's so much fail in here, I'm out. I'll get in trouble if I give my honest opinion.

For the money it would cost to sc the clio i'd probably look at getting a ph1 172 track car, that way your not devaluing the 200.

A supercharged 200 will be more to insure than a Megane 250.
Simple fact.

I'm not quite sure what that comment even means in relative terms but okay.Yea should have got yourself a ford puma
Look at it logically too..
a = cost of 200
b = cost of turbo/supercharger
c = cost of insurance
x = cost of 250
y = cost of insurance
a+b+c = way more than x+y
Buying a 200 is fine. That's what you prefer. That's your decision. People like to modify things, that's where there is loads of Supras that are faster than a Ferrari, because they wanted to modify something and not just buy it from the box.
But doing it because the insurance is too high on a Megane is something Dizze Rascal would sing about.

Sell the 200, then buy some coilovers for a Fiat 500.
A blown 200 may be more interesting than an RS meggy, but it certainly isn't a financial winner, more a large flaming bin that you can pour your earnings into.
or, as suggested, sell the car, by the supercharger, then finance a completely different car to save up for the car you were going to charge.
Yes, that makes......sense?

Just talk to Ktec about getting it done and listen to the experts not people on here who don't know what they are talking about that might change your mind on not getting it done.
Because Clio enthusiasts don't know anything about Clios..

If you've got money to burn, KTech will no doubt take your money off you and provide a conversion.

Buy a c20let with the money youd spend on the conversion
Keep a nice new car ( the 200) untouched
Dont lose more in depreciation than nesasary

Lol so dont speak to Ktec, all there good for is a mail ordering service.
Not even going to talk about the clown that created this thread...
As I said don't listen to the idiots on here, or they are experts in is a McDonald menu !!!!!!!
ur doin the rite thing tuning the clio, people might say money waiste, but u cant put a price on a smile that u get from dusting down Focus RS boi's an the common tuned CTR's an other common stuff. reg quote (RS F 0F) 2010 RS unlucky
What he's saying in "relative" terms is.... male puma drivers like to wind their sunroof's back.. get along side a Polish wagon driver and openly play with their c0cks!
I think you should go ahead and tune it, I have similar plans, yes its expensive to go down the super charger route because you have to upgraded virtually everything in the engine, but the smile on your face wil be well worth it. Everyone on here has an opinion thats right to them but its what is right to you that matters, whatever you do dont get a bloody puma though
Anyone thought about putting a different lump in the 200, thinking 2ltr turbo from VAG, highly tuneable, can easily get over 300BHP without to much cost. havnt a clue if it will fit but no doubt 50 people will tell me to buy a polo instead..
