I bought my wife her Clio 200 EDC with cup pack roughly this time last year, as standard I found it under powered. it really wasn't the performance I'd expected from best part of 200bhp in a relatively small car. I eventually decided to say stuff the warranty and get it remapped. It did...

We'll be up for a little blast if the weather is ok too :) Just need to get used to driving the clio first lol, it's like going from an artic to a moped being so used to the GTR lol.

I should think they're very different machines. The 1.6turbo seems to have torque from very low down up to about 4.5/5k where as I bet the 2litre doesn't start getting max torque till about 4.5k? So the 2litre loves being high in the revs while the 1.6 runs out of puff up that high

Next time you see me, ask for a spin. The car was down on minimum boost that day and I think I only once really floored it totally on the day, you run out of road far to quickly. I'll take you for a quick spin with it turned up at about 150bhp more than what if was running that day. You'll...

Thanks guys. It was the other way around for me, I was really impressed with all the little Clio's weaving about. So much do that last Thursday we took delivery on a new RS 200 clio in liquid yellow. It was blatantly obvious to me that a gtr was really not built for those roads, it's just...

So true! The roads aren't wide enough and it gets to well over 100mph in so few seconds that it just can't be "fun" any more. Hoping the Clio will be good rfor that sort of thing and GTR can be more for other stuff....of which I haven't quite worked out what yet lol.

Is that a turbo 1.6 one or the 2 litre ?

And boy is that the weirdest fun thing ever!

Yes even standard they're silly quick. Problem is that UK roads just aren't designed for them, they're to quick to enjoy, you ding feel like you're pushing it till you're breaking the law! Hence the Clio RS :) We went in the GTR to the black mountains run here in Brecon with all the clio...

Lol yes the GTR has a little bit of poke, especially after the tweaking it's had ;) Yes it's got a few thousand on it so it should be run in, I think I'm just expecting to much of a 1.6. I'm just used to petrol turbos having matching bhp and torque, so having 200bhp with only 170ft/lb just...

Beefing up the midrange is good enough, I just think it needs more oomph. I understand it's probably only got a teeny turbo so top end will suffer, the joys of getting low down power with a turbo on a small engine will usually mean the turbo can't do much top end, just how it works :) All...

We just purchased a Clio RS 4. While it's a fun car I find it sorely lacking in torque, more so in the upper rev range. So I set about hunting down a remap for it. With it being brand new, a tuning box seemed the way to go so it could be easily removed to go in for servicing and warranty...

Talk about being late! I had been trying to post on this thread but didn't have permission! It was great to meet many of you. I was the guy in the Black GTR. Was a fun drive although I learnt very quickly that a 650bhp GTR is not really suited to the twisting bends of those mountains, car...

Hi all, Just swinging by to say hi after meeting a few of you on the run today. I was the guy in the GTR. Nice to meet you all :) See you on the road!
