Amazing. Any videos of it in motion?

 

[Chris205]

(Quiet) bloody iPhone spelling

 

[subarufreak]

what a minter!!!

does it get the power down well? or is it spinning until 4th gear?

 

[litchy]

Thanks for positive comments. 'D' day for sale is next weekend, so we'll see. Its a bit frustrating as I'm 15 bhp short of what I hoped to make, which I'm guessing is down to fuel system on Clio. Ideally may have fitted fuel return system if I was keeping it or even just in-line fuel pump. Would have seen another 20ftlb.

In wet (or dry tbh) 1st and 2nd are pointless for grand prix type starts but in gear, its crazy...

 

[Chip-mk1]

What is your AFR at peak BHP? That will soon tell you if its the fuel system that is the issue.

Personally I cant really see how 305 or 320 really matters though TBH, mine was 308 last time it was on the rollers and im sure at 320 I wouldnt even notice the difference on a track.

Cool car by the way

 

[davo172]

Great work mate :approve: who did all the conversion and mapping ?

 

[litchy]

Conversion done by Steve @ SC auto electrics in Bolton. Currently building an interesting Twingo and Modus!!!!!!

Oh, guess your right about figure. It was just a target more than anything else.....

 

[Chi]

Thanks for your all your comments (good and not so good). I'm far from precious about comments as thats why I post stuff to get a feel for peoples general views. Styling always gonna be a bit hit n' miss cause its so much down to individual taste when you move away from the norm. Also realise that 197/200 wasn't the best received RS on CS.

The Clio set-up for St2 so once the fueling sorted and mapped, hopefully I'll see around 320bhp. Grilles are functional too....Theres a big intercooler under there. I also think there look better in the flesh.....

Recently fitted KW clubsport so handling even more focused. Taking the brakes to 330mm.....then I'm finished just in time to sell it in summer.

Where do I sign?? Awesome looking car inside and out..

 

[Thrust-Rated]

It is a beast! Wheels look awesome too, bet its a right head turner

Maybe he can look at my little van, re Xmas lights and give it a once over too.. Not too far away.

 

[Simon@SprayShack]

Excellent first time ive seen this all together interior wise, we did the interior parts a while back and we will be doing a few more bits for Wilson in the near future hopefully. Very tidy!

How funny, just emailed you.....

Must say Sprayshacks work is absolutely superb quality.

 

[JoshOm3]

Looks an awesome bit of kit tbf. Well done for having the bottle and bank balance too suit. All about being different I think.

 

[Wick]

Jesus Christ I bet that thing goes like a bull with a hornets nest up it's arse!

Awesome, awesome project car.

 

[jamier27]

Like chip says that "missing" 15bhp wouldn't really be noticed IMO ..

i would be so interested in this car if a decent cash offer my way was there for the 135... But highly unlikely that's a route you'd want to take

 

[Keyser Soze]

Want!

details on the twingo?

And would you mind if I asked how much he charged you for the conversion? Pm me if you prefer

 

[Thrust-Rated]

Wasn't there a R27 with a jamsport build similar to this? Or is this the one I'm thinking of? It had its intercooler sprayed black with jamsport sprayed on it in yellow

EDIT: just found the jamsport one, its similar power too

 

[litchy]

THANKS FOR ALL YOUR POSITIVE COMMENTS.......

Jamsports car is supercharged

 

[Thrust-Rated]

Yep I've caught up with it all now. Which is better though?!?!

Charged or boosted?!

Hmmmmmm

 

[jamier27]

Not experienced either but would imagine as far as a standard Clio is concerned a supercharger conversion would edge for the linear power delivery??

but the 250 engine has a very linear power delivery too.
once in 3rd gear in dry cant imagine either being as good as other??

 

[litchy]

Sprayshack did a grand job on engine cover

PF 330mm brakes fitted but really irritating knocking noise due to brake pad movement (Grrrr)

​

 

[Knuckles]

Nice, what's/whos is the sig?

 

[Ph1 Tom]

I'd happily hand over 10k for that. Shame it needs to go on the house instead.
