No offense mate but I would rather see pics of your car than the surrounding buildings/carpark.What is it turbo diesel or modded petrol?

Its a Clio 182 turbo, 280hp, Garrett gt2560r, megane 225 internals, adaptronic standalone ecu, helix paddle clutch, 230 on low boost, 280 on high boost.

Turbo is good for 330hp but its mapped safe for the internals.

It will be forged in the future.

There's surprisingly not a lot about these conversions on cliosport

Are they a hard conversion to do?

Much space for servicing etc after the conversion?

Other than the ecu do you run pretty much all else as standard, gearbox? Can see you've done the clutch...how long have you ran it like this for... how hard do you drive it?

Keen on the idea of one of these

Its quite easy to drive fast mate, it puts the power down very well, its got a very good chassis.

Theres a few on cliosport but not too many.

I had the conversion done at clioturbo.co.uk, he does 3 different kits, here's a link to his conversions, I opted for his kit two, its bloody quick on high boost, then you can switch it to low boost for pottering about in.

http://clioturbo.co.uk/renault-servicing.html

Everything works as it should, cruise, climate, all the toys etc, I'm on the standard box which are a weak point tbh, but he does the vag o2m 6 speed box conversion too.

Servicing and maintaining the car is the same tbh, all parts are cheap as chips for these too, you can pick a 2nd hand gearbox up off cliosport for less than £100.

Theres not much on the road that can give it a run for its money tbh, they only weigh just over 1000kg.

Too right, would love this little motor.

I had a couple of 172 Cups and prefered the one exhaust look, as that way it doesn't look like it's meant to be quick. Well, at least this is
