Twingo Adey's Twingo GT (F4R+T 2.0ltr engine swap)

Right it hasn't blown up yet (fingers crossed, touch wood, pray to the turbo gods) so all being well and I get there mapping is on Tuesday. What do we think the results will be?

Recap, its a stock 205/225/r26 engine, Miltek 3/2.75inch downpipe and front pipe into a 2.5inch mid section and a 2.25inch back box. Big front mount intercooler and PMT big intake (s2000 filter) Injectors have been cleaned and came back in good order. On a rs133 clutch cover, CG motorsport dual friction plate and a JR5 5speed diesel gearbox

Closest guess can win something random that I find in my garage 🤷‍♂️
 
Can I reserve something with a 6...? I’m going 263.

Then I predict a LARY drive home...!

Your limiting factor will be the back box.

The clio's can run 280bhp on a 2.5" exhaust system from memory.

Mine is 304/298 running a 15T, 3" exhaust and 630 injectors.

So around the 250bhp mark which will be mega in the Twiglet.
 
I have a B18FT in a R5. The engine makes 210 HP at 4300 rpm with a back box of 2.25 inch. But at higher revs the power declines rapidly because of the box. So I'm very curious of your results. Nice car by the way and good luck.

have you disconnected the exhaust anywhere along to prove its that causing the rapid drop off? I always though torque died off on them after 4500 anyway.
 
I've taken a touch more camber out, filled up with petrol and loaded up the car ready for tomorrow. Chucked in some tools, spare wheel, jack and fluids just incase. I don't want to call the RAC for something silly. Paranoid much... there's a definite grumble from the drivers side shaft when turning slightly so hopefully it hold out for the trip 🤦🏻‍♂️ I haven't got all the parts here to make another yet either urgh. This is going to be a nerve racking trip. Infact the trip there will be the longest drive it's had
