Hi guys I'm after a bit of advice, I've recently bought a Clio 197 and I'm doing the megane swap.
I've tried to do all the research I can and had a good search and all I've found out is the megane 250 engine is believed to be stronger?
im aiming for 350/360bhp from the car to be able to exceed my old golfs power but more on that another time..
Now all all these numbers are good in heinsight but I want it to be reliable. so my question is which engine would be best?
My my reasons for this question is the 250 engine is hard to come across and they cost a lot more than the 225.
So would I be better off buying the 225 engine and doing some work to the block? Or would a 250 engine handle around 340 without work??
i don't want to hold out for a 250 engine and pay more up front when I'd get the same thing from a 225 engine with work and without the wait!
Hope you can see what I'm trying to get at!
I will be most greatful for any help/advice!
Ps sorry for spelling errors I'm using my phone on a crappy connection :s
