RS RIP
I asked Maurice how much time he would need to do mine ; 2 days+- (so around 15/16 hours ?)
Do'nt know about the FMIC, might need a little cutting there ?
Yeah but for how long on the standard turbo!!! not long. i can guarantee that!!!
When i had my coilovers fitted my clio 182 cup was weighed and it was 1072kg!!!
RS RIP
Probably. i know mine was absolutely empty cos when i picked it up i desperately needed fuel!
The coilovers were lighter too so that saved a bit of weight
By the looks of things it would be a piece of cake to fit if you have any mechanical knowledge. its all bolt on. easy i reckon! youve got no pistons, rods, head off or anything like that.
I agree. couldnt live without a/c. people must be mad gettin rid of it if its their everyday car. havin itb's ruins all the front of the car if you ask me. everything gets annhilated under the bonnet!!!
They do nothing anyway. definately not runnin 7psi! they sound s**t imo. and usually just leak boost. they only do something when runnin big power.
No good point but its nice to have it! even tho it does almost nothing. i love the throttle bodies idea. miles better than turbos but it the bombsite under the bonnet after the work is done i cant stand!!! imo of course.
RS RIP
yes and then only when running a recirculating one. They run the overpressure back into the system to keep the turbo running between gears i thought.
The open one just throws it out thus "leaking" thrust ?
Open ones are there only to let people know you've got a spinner in there
No i meant they leak boost past the diaphragm. good quality ones dont do this as they use a piston system. shouldnt be an issue on this turbo conversion tho as its running very little pressure.
Sorry to be anal lol but according to Renault;
172 = 1,110
172 Cup = 1,021
182 = 1,090 (effectively the same as the ph2 172 without a spare wheel)
Can't remember TROPHY figure, but it's lighter than a stabdard 182 due to turinis, no xenons, seats etc.
RS RIP

If anyone is thinking of buying it I would come and have a look at my car first.
I am selling a car arguably worth 8000-9000 standard with a proper turbo conversion for £3000.....
Why haven't you sold it after 6 months then ?

Black Gold 182 with both cup packs.

you could buy this swap the engine and still save a load of cash! I think £3000 for all the bits if you sold the car standard is bloody cheap.lol.
You buy it and you can do what you want with it, one condition though....you let me try out your car when it's finished.

Well then, drink your milk boy and off to bed ! it's way past your bedtime, no wonder

600hp+ minimum after all 600 has been done on the old F4R engine (f7R)
Only warently on the parts you've chnaged any anything that they can blame for the failure.
I'd bet the internals (with stock fuel) as said earlier are the limiting factor.
The box isn't that strong I've known loads break under normal power never mind extra power the box is officaly at its warently limit.
Have you put loads of torque though one of those boxes and punihsed it I guess not else you'd have different views.
But your has head work as well doens't it after all bost just get by the restriction and you have less restriction as such.
1 liter is about 0.7 of a KG.
But its enough the box is at its limit not saing it definatly going to go but there a reason we have no more torque. Renault warently state its at its limit which what they would cover and they know more than us.
Not realy the strenght is more than just a few bits the whole thngs a bit weak all over.
