197: The project continues...Just bought a Meg 250 cup engine and box

Nice one! Good luck with it all mate!

Thanks for all the positive comments. The engines collected today and now in mates garage. Engines looks very similar to 225 but the boost pipes are huge. Engines done about 5k.
Gonna be some interesting times ahead.....

 

[Hippy]

Go for it litchy this will be intresting thread

 

[GrottyBananas]

All the very best with the project, as Hippy says, this will be a most interesting read.

EPPIC m8ty glad ur keeping the car :thumbup:

Subscribed! cant wait to see the outcome :clap::clap:

 

[carbonfanatics]

Fair play!

Interestingly, just been reading about the 250 engine swap done in Spain. The mechanical stuff looks quite straight forward. The issues are (like the 225) the ecu but equally the VVT. The 225 doesn't have a VVT. They have kept the Sagem 3000 225 ecu and wired the senor and VVT actuator. They are running a Conservative map...and engines making 318 bhp.
I have tried to contact them but think they are keen to keep stuff 'secret'. Also the google translator isn't great. Anyone fluent in Spanish? lol......

 

[Fernandez]

I could have a go mate but to be fair Google is probably better at Spanish than me.. Lol

When you say ecu issues with the 225, do you mean using the 225 ecu with the 250?

As there are zero issues using the 225 ecu with the 225 engine conversion.

i think he means using the 225 ecu with the 250 engine (225 doesnt have VVT, whereas the 250 does) well thats how im reading it.

 

[fmp]

Ah right cool.

That makes sense now.

 

[shakey_hand_man]

you should be able to code the 250 ecu to match the clio imoboliser as it to is a sagem 3000

i suppose its finding a 250 ecu, thats why hes looking at the 225?

http://www.meganesport.net/community...n-Megane-RS-II Hehehe, This project was developed by my company (http://www.bc-autotech.com/web/index.php/news/83-swap-renault-megane-sport), I work for this company, I am a distributor for East Coast of Spain.

In this swap, has been used:
MRS250 ENGINE
MRS225 GEARBOX
MRS225 ECU SAGEM3000 ** This can control VVT. You only have to know how to do**

Good luck with your proyect, If I can help with anything, I'm here.

That is too complicated, it is easier to use the MRS225 Sagem3000. With the sagem is easier to operate the immobilizer, as well as all comfort systems
