Megane Ricardo's Budget Track 225
- Thread starter Ricardo
- Start date
Is the intercooler all I'd need for the stage 1 map?
Ill beat you with a stick if you refer to tuning with the word stage again. Let you off just this once.
The I/C on the meg is shocking. I would look for one tout suite to minimise the inevitable sky high charge temps.
If you are going that far , grab a 250 turbo as well. So , so much smoother power delivery.I would do the full lot before mapping, intercooler, decat, exhaust (if it does nto already have one) then get it mapped on 630cc injectors. Goes so much better

Somewhere along this journey "Budget" definitely needs to be removed from the thread title..
That's about a grand then, before mapping.I would do the full lot before mapping, intercooler, decat, exhaust (if it does nto already have one) then get it mapped on 630cc injectors. Goes so much better

You can pick up the bits 2nd hand for reasonable money 
seen loads of decats for sale. You could lose the rear silencer on stock exhaust to keeep costs down, seen loads of modified stock systems for sale cheap. Mapping is always going to be a biggy but got to be done right..

A big thanks to @andybond for posting out the head unit and tray, highly appreciated and beers winging it's way to Blyton
So I popped over to the Megane to try and make sense of having the headunit work, I pulled all the connectors out from the centre console area to which 2 fitted in along with the aerial. With the ignition then on I assumed the top console would show the 4 nought digits asking to punch in the code like the Clios. Alas it didn't, it just showed the time and the temp, again assuming then that the Megane is different to the Clio. I have the code to hand and know how to install but there's no option to put it in. There's also connectors loose on the loom that I can only assume might be available for a 6 CD option as my DCi Megane has one fitted below the head unit. The headunit beeps when you press certain buttons but there's nothing showing up on the display. I ended up unplugging it and putting it back in the box. Also, the MP3 lead that should plug direct into the OE headunit doesn't seem to fit either.
Digging around the toolbox I also found this Cup tow ring which I'll modify to make work for the Megane.

Absolutely nothing, just the time and temp. I can certainly go back, plug it in, check the fuses and leave it for a couple of hours. I'm heading back out so I can do it then.
Yep but there's no way of knowing what digit it's on, you have to scroll through with the wheel I believe but there's no way of knowing... I would have thought it would show 0000 on the display then you scroll though to enter the 4 numbers. Well that's what the Clio display shows... Unless that part of it isn't plugged into the headunit.
That's what i'm thinking, only thing is I can't find any other connector at the moment.
