Thats most that i can remember off the top of my head, Has a few other bits and bobs as well.

Currently running 333bhp, Plans for Hybrid/Injectors and a few other parts this year to see ~380bhp and a cage come winter time.

Awaiting a boss kit to show up so i can fit a Sabelt wheel and i may get a CAE shifter for it as well.

Think thats about it, Its currently in for its Timing belt change and another Clutch/Slave cylinder. This one last 40k or so. Had a few issues but mainly coming from how its used and the usual MK3 stuff, IE Swivels etc. It did catch fire at the end of last year mind you.


Currently working on getting some interesting features working on the ECU, Switchable maps on the throttle maps via the RS monitor, LC, Race ESP and a couple other things that we can get working.

Some fantastic photography there @Jamie . We have an image of the month compo going on at the mo !
A TD04-HL20T will help with the power. Whats the fuelling like on these ? I dont know alot about the 250s

 

[-Jamie-]

That's the spec of Turbo I'm looking at eventually getting, RST spec i think?

Hybrid will run on stock injectors but its a massive waste IMO, Some 630's will make the most of it

 

[andybond]

RST spec i think?

There are a couple of extra tweaks I believe.

 

[Adey]

bad!, this looks awesome

Nice thread mate!,

Great to see all the mods in one place!

These do look so sick

WOW your car is just Sexual... :ay:

I do keep spending too much of my time thinking I will F*** off all my old Renaults (11 Turbo and Cup Car) and looking at this on eBay:

2010 Renault Megane 2.0 Renaultsport Cup 3dr

And thinking with a couple of quid with a Decal guy it would look like this (Perhaps with the word GENTLEMANLY on the side ):


And then enjoy more driving of it...

I have a 20T turbo for sale/swap, it's literally just been built, but stupidly I don't have the money for the forged bits to make use of it so it needs to go, do you want to swap it for your 15T?

 

[andybond]

RIP @Mattlockyer arm off @-Jamie-

 

[Mattlockyer]

So literally the turbo has just arrived on my desk, spec is 6+6 20T compressor wheel (50mm inducer / 61mm exducer) machined to suit regular compressor housing & chra, its the largest compressor wheel avaiable for the td04. 1mm larger turbine wheel with turbine housing machined to fit, all new bearings, seals, balanced & assembled, ready to go.

I'm after a 250 turbo, will either sell this or swap if right.

Apologies for the post hijack, I just figured you would maybe interested.

 

[andybond]

HL Body ?

 

[Mattlockyer]

L...

 

[-Jamie-]

Whats the difference between the Hl and L @andybond ?


@Mattlockyer I could be tempted to do the swap depending on what difference the L over the HL will have

 

[andybond]

Messaged you

Awesome photo's, especially the first one. I'd always be telling the missus "just popping out in the back garden" to shoot something

Your car is epic!

Smallish update.
Bent a rod at the en doc April, 4 weeks before i was due to of to the Ring,

Sourced a replacement engine with similar miles that had ran stock power all its life, Also fitted a Hybrid and bigger injectors while they were getting swapped over. Now running 365bhp and 385lbsft on a safe map, All finally fitted an mapped 8 hours before we left for the Ring, Cutting it close much.

Its going into Scott McMinn at some point for its half cage then it needs a front end refresh and some more rear brakes. Likely add some AST's or Nitrons to it this year along with a tubular manifold for a bit more powers.
