Turbo engine conversions

[crombie1]

What is the most common turbo engine conversion for a Clio. Iv done 2 corsa 2.0 turbo conversions now and looking to do something to the Clio. Is there any of the shelf conversion kits like there is for the corsa or would it need to be all custom made

 

[Matt Cup]

Megane 225 lump seems like a popular conversion.

If you search i coverd this the other day cheers ")

Depends on what spec you go for and how much you can do yourself.

Anywhere from £2.5k to £4k.

If you can pick things up second hand then it obviously brings the price down but some things are best being new.

I knew even after steve had taken the time to go through turbo convertions in datail, and sticky it at the top of this part of the forum someone would come along and ask the same questions lol! Did you search?

im not asking about fitting a turbo to my 172 engine or a megane engine. im asking about engines outside renault

 

[marinemackay2003]

There is not a lot of info as no one has really done it

Mainly due to the easy options and decent price for an after market turbo kits available, http://www.engine-dynamics.com/epag...port 172 / 182 Turbo Conversion"&Locale=en_GB

3 grand fitted ( ok maybe not the best company to use but cheap )
And there are a few clio turbo conversion running 300 bhp and some almost 400

Or x amount trying to fabricate a vag /red top/(insert cool turbo conversion here ) into a clio

has been done though search clio TT in here
