During summer I've been working on my Valver turning it into a Hybrid - had to as the old Clio Cup Grp. N engine gave up!
Car is only used for Sunday drives and track days.
It's only semi stripped - I might remove some more weight at some point.
New specs of The Orange....

Stand alone ECU (currently with 7600rpm. limit)
Lightened and balanced BE (pistons and rods within 1g difference)
Lightened and balanced fly wheel and clutch assembly
Cat Cams verniers
Cat Cams 225's
Wössner rods
Wössner 11.2 pistons
Wössner rod bolts
Modified head
Green air filter in std. modified air box
Stainless-steel Devil manifold
2,5" custom stainless-steel exhaust
Pacet fan controlled by low temp thermostat
Transmission:
Std. Valver JB3-053 gearbox
Sinter metal Sachs clutch - lightened version
Sadev short throw conversion
Renault Sport alloy/fiber bush kit for gear lever
Other:
“No spillage” modification of servo fluid reservoir
Powerflex bushes in dog bone mount
R19 Gearbox/sub frame mount
Grp. N engine mounts
Battery relocation (low position behind passenger seat)
Stud and nut conversion
Brakes:
Brembo Max discs
PF97 pads
Braided brake lines
Std. rear discs and pads
Suspension:
F+R Leda adj. dampers
Powerflex bushes
R5 Express 23,5mm torsion bar
Sparco upper front strut brace
Sparco lower strut brace
Devil rear strut brace (for seat belts)
Wheels & Tyres:
OZ Ultraleggera 7x15-inch wheels
Toyo R888 195/50/15 tyres
Body:
Focus electric orange
Smoothed tailgate
Front bumper lightened - Fog lights removed
Rear bumper Nana style
Smoked side-repeaters
Phase 2 rear light clusters and boot-strip
Removed bump-strips – front, rear, sides
Roof strips removed
Antenna moved to rear
Sunroof – yes unfortunately…
Angel eyes with 4300K xenon - not to everybody's taste...
Interior:
Momo steering wheel
Momo pedals
OMP steering wheel spacer
Sparco Pro 2000 seats – from Sandtler Motorsport
6 point FIA seat belts
Alcantara inserts on door cards
Alcantara gaiter
Devil rear strut brace (for seat belts)
Performance:
At first it was mapped when it had a 2" exhaust on.
With first map it made 178bhp @ fly - 190Nm.
I was a little disappointed.
The guy mapping it suggested the exhaust was simply to small in diameter. Then had a 2,5" exhaust made and got it mapped again yesterday.
Baseline result before new map was 182bhp @ fly - 200Nm
After a little tweak of the ignition map the result was a healthy 198bhp @ fly - 230Nm :shock:
Very surprised of the difference an exhaust and a new map can make!
Best part is i can feel the extra power! :twisted:
Now - I'm not disappointed anymore! :D
Next step is ITB's - need to rob a bank though!
