    hi,it might be worth having the original pistons machined (skimmed)90tho or so as i did on my rs turbo (mahle pistons)which adjusted my c/r from 8.6:1 to 7.6:1 i then ran 26psi boost and 274lbft of torque!
    oh and harvey gibbs charged my 20 quid to have em done hope this helps

    wosseners are the cheapest decent low comp forged pistons you will get, lookin at £500 for them, stan and most other clio specific tuners stock better makes of piston and as such cost more!

    wouldn't touch Wossner guys, most cars I know of using those have needed more than one rebuild!

    Iapelle(sp?) imo
