Clio Adeys Clio 182 with added F4R+t content

plenty of parts around for a cheap diy conversion now with the amount of people upgrading the meganes. I think if you slipped a meg 250 headgasket in at the same time to drop the comp a little you could prob do 250/260bhp with little hassle on the efi parts boost module
 
That turbo will easily flow 275ish bhp and 300ib on a R26 774 engine. You will be laughing with that on a LPT clio job.

You going aftermarket ECU Adey?
 
to keep the costs down itll prob be mapped by paul or chris. unless something comes up real cheap. another idea ive had would be to wire up a 225 ecu as its cheap, mappable and already designed for boost. not sure how viable that is though tbh
 
I cant see either of them being happy to map it on a standard 172 ECU mate. It will be proper flying blind. The map sensors wont be able to read it properly.

I would go down the Sagem3000 ( 225ECU ) if possible.
 
scoff alrady does this day in day out with a box of tricks and a different map sensor to allow the ecu to interpret positive pressure. hes like the go to guy for it, ive ran it before as has james5 on his 182 turbo and many others.

the meg ecu swap interests me though as im not sure its been done, there is probably a reason for it, just not sure how doable it would be yet. ill need to do some digging

@Neal R19 you might be able to help me with this one. meg 225 ecu into a 182. i know you run one in your 19, big ball ache to get the electronics/ecu side working?

With a preset map! He lists exact spec of what is required. There is no mention of a td04 on there.
 
you misunderstand. its possible and has been done many times over. It also says on the page? you can buy it as a kit for a list of specific mods for the home installation, or buy as a kit to use with custom mapping up to a max of 12psi (maximum scope with the fim) keeping the meg injectors. if you want more than that can offer then its standalone really.

Fair one.

Didn’t read that bit!

Be interested to see how a blind map works though ? You would surely have to take it there to be mapped ?
 
the meg ecu is a way off idea but would give loads more scope. after you did it all and made it wprk.you would prob be at the price of a second hand aftermarket unit

blind how?

indeed same as anywhere/any install really bar a base map to pootle on?

I am guessing that scoff / whoever hasn’t done a map with a clio lump with a 225 mani + turbo.

As you are not bring data logged there won’t be any feedback to the mapper - hence blind.

Unless you took the car to efi / RSTuning to map on the rollers..
 
Thats the plan, fit everything up then sort the control side and mapping. Much more than spanners and its out of my hands. james5 ran the same setup previous mind so im not the first.

this is all if it gets past a pile of parts, it is me lol
