E46 M3 Vs Clio 220+

[seanofnp]

away this week Nyk, should be back this weekend, not sure if I'll be about though, got some things to sort out, so may have to be a following week... or you can wait til after Xmas when I have a 2.2 bottom end...?

What is that from?

it will be my new 2.0 Cup engine (or 182 engine) being rebuilt with forged steel parts, so still a Clio BE.

Nice, whens that going ahead?

How you bringing it upto 2.2? What kinda power your looking at?

[J o n]

going for bigger pistons, lightened and dynamically balanced, steel rods, crank etc etc, looking around 250ish bhp, also getting 182 manifold and eventually headwork. I'd like 300bhp from NA, bit of a push I know, but if it can remain drivable then that's my aim

Sounds like its going to be crazy! Cant wait to see it.

Im looking at ph1 172s at the moment, especially in yellow. Im really loving them and have some nice ideas for one.

[seanofnp]

Comeon we wanna see this!!!!! ;)

[J o n]

yeah they look pretty cool in yellow, shame they never did a white one though!

will be soon hopefully, I'm in the process of getting a custom made braided steel PAS line for my car though as there's a fluid leak from the pipe attached to the pump itself.
