Renault Sport Clio 197 Racing Red

It's a ~550bhp turbo.

Mounting the IC as we speak/type.

Will that not just be mega laggy? Won't a turbo like that need revs and thus defeating the point of the long stroke F4R?

It's not the same having a 210bhp base as N/A or 180bhp N/A base (i presume that Megane 225 has 170 or less bhp without turbo). Intake manifold is bigger, cylinder head is better (bigger intake/exhaust)...we shall see. I'm expecting 3500-7500 in boost. And given in mind I have a 200 gearbox with the shorter gear ratio it could make an interesting build.
Or not.

Sounds like even more of a money pit mate! Treading the unknown always ends up costing a **** load!

Any news regarding turbo conversion?

 

[Raptor6767]

It's going as planned. Will post when it's all finished.
Probably in April.

So this it, getting closer, no turning back now! GL.

The main problem is the lack of free time - we can work on the car only on Sundays (and sometimes on Saturdays too).

That's one fat turbo.
