Clio Turbo's

[willyturb0]

After reading franksvalver's thread about his Williams 1 Turbo, and not wanting to hijack it, thought I'd start a thread to bring all the pictures of Turbo Williams & 16 valvers in one place. So please add your pictures.

Put all the Boost in one place!!!

Tbh, I keep thinking of getting rid of it. Just don't use it anymore. Hoping plenty of turbo pictures will keep me going with it!

[willyturb0]

I'll plug the battery back in and get it out the garage for some up to date pictures at the weekend if the weaters good. (now wears yoko AD08's, a few mores dents, and the exhaust now dosn't fit aswell!)

[Coops]

don't have to tell me twice to get whoring :-)

hey coops, i saw you delocked the boot aswell as your doors, have you took any precaution incase your battery dies? like have you got a popper somewhere or a live terminal under the body?

[James5]

Probably a tin opener knowing that pikey bastard :lol:

[franksvalver]

Everyone else's bays are extremely well kept.

**** me coops you even took you passenger seat out for the pod run? Nutcase

[Coops]

used to ai, that was couple of seasons back, ran both last season and got the fastest time i ever did, and with a cracked block and cracked and warped head as it turns out as well! rofl!!

no popper or anything, i have plastic windows, 6 bolts and the sliders drop out and reach in, open car. security first ;-)

[willyturb0]

Do like looking at your clio coops. Must have most photo's on here.

Relocated filter is a good idea, must cut heat soak.

[Coops]

cheers mate, i love looking at it too!lol!

yours looks minty fresh too fella, and i love the standard looks of it :-)

ai it does help, i relocated the standard dashboard temp sensor (used to be in passenger wing mirror) to the scuttle as well and the inlets are typically ambient air temp, 20 degrees odd :-)

New setup for this year going for 300bhp+.. coming soon

[Coops]

[16v_paddy]

Nah, orange iirc :wink:

[Coops]

heard they're a bit slow tbh, one i went round the ring in was pants ;-)

[cliokongen]

+1 Paddy... :D

[16v_paddy]

+1 Paddy... :D

Finally! Another real man with manly throttle bodies, this thread has been saved from the eternal damnation :P

[JamieG]

That Williams looks fantastic.

[Berts_Willy]

+1 for paddy

and NA power :wink:

[16v_paddy]

Trumpets ftw :P

[franksvalver]

I know its only banter but why would you want NA power if you could afford to do the turbo conversion?

220bhp vs an easy 260

7800rpm vs 6500 rpm

Really stupid loud BAAAARP or the stealthy flutter

Oh, and the fact that you dont need a ned radiator, dont have to go standalone and TBH its WAY more bang for your buck

Look at coops pikey engine. Probs cost him the same as a 1st class postage stamp to buy that unwanted f7p block from paddy.

Turbo/boost > NA

[16v_paddy]

In my honest opinion, for proper track work, turbo'd clios just aren't up to the job, the power is rather wasted as you really can't put it down properly, it's too much for the car to handle. Plus turbo's are waaaaayy more complex & expensive plus trumpets will always sound better & the only turbo's cars that come close to sounding as good are 5 pots :twisted:

[Coops]

not to mention new head for free ;-) parts have cost me a total of 50 quid upto now for complete new engine :-) rofl!

[willyturb0]

Mine has cost me an absolute fortune over the years!

And as for track work I’d agree with paddy. I did my first track day at goodwood a few years ago and in the morning used the Clio. It was fun and it surprised other cars. In the afternoon I took a civic type r FN2 round (the space rocket shape with triangle fogs and tail pipes) It was sooooo much easier, and although it had 80 odd brake less, and heavier the civic was probably quicker.

Saying that, it was never built as a track day special. Remember playing with a Porsche on a dual carriage way and looking at the drivers face. :lol:

Come on peeps more pictures off BOOST!!

I know theres more out there!!!!

[Coops]

dont get me wrong, its cost a lot to get there, but its cheap (ish) to maintain compared to other 12 second 1/4 mile cars i know......which is none ;-)

[dhay14]

will add some pictures after next week

[willyturb0]

Must be more turbo'd ones left?

Up to date pictures below. Cleaned the dust off it on the driveway then took it out for the day, getting it dirty straight away.

I'll try and get some up-to-date pictures of mine when I can, it's currently having a replacement turbo fitted & improvements made to the intercooler/pipework.

I've had nothing but trouble since the day I brought it, gearbox, head gasket, turbo... but I still wouldn't change it for one minute.

Your's is very tidy/clean, mine will be put to shame by all others.

[Wobba]

I may go for another Mk1 and turbo it as I do love a bit of boost.

However, my current car with high comp and ITB's is spot on for what I use it for. Amazing noise, extremely quick for such a small car and it's not gone wrong apart from shearing a driveshaft after a brutal traffic lights gran prix.

215 odd bhp can be used on standard clutch and gearbox happily, as long as you are not completely unsympathetic to the mechanicals.

My 16V turbo for Old-Times sake. Sold many years ago and funnily enough, the downpipe that I made for it has turned up on Reevio's Turbo, which is sitting in my garage right now!!

Both ways suck dick tbh, supercharger ftw! :P

^This. Why compromise on power and revs when you can have 300+bhp and over 8'000rpm :)

[Tullyvernon]

Enjoyed looking through this old thread, was a great idea!!

[bass_direct]

Mine is still going strong :)

Brilliant!! Sounds great!

What power did she make?

[16v_paddy]

373bhp iirc

[Tullyvernon]

Impressive!!!! Bound to be so much fun!!!

[bass_direct]

Impressive!!!! Bound to be so much fun!!!

Thanks, yeah goes very well too (As you have seen on that CS thread when it was 345bhp) :)

[bauderline]

Class! Ssshhhweeeerrrrpp.... see ya !

[Wobba]

I would like to do something similar. Not with 0217 though, but another Mk1. I love the way TAC is as it is, though it wont match the mad power of forced induction, it's already beyond the limits of the normal drive train (sheared driveshaft and slipping clutch).

[Coops]

13 plus gearboxes are definitely a headache ;)

[Crossers]

Numerous gearbox replacements was the reason I eventually broke up my Turbo'd Williams 2! It used to destroy them!

[tutuur]

02m conversion ftw!
