[kj16v]

Turbo (obviously!)
Turbo exhaust manifold (can be had on Ebay for the bargainous price £90 ath the moment)
Turbo downpipe
dished pistons for around 200 bhp
-OR-
forged low/comp pistons for significantly more than 200 bhp
2 bar MAP sensor and properly remapped ECU (for up to 1bar boost / 250 bhp)
-OR-
Standalone engine management ( probably advisable above 1 bar boost / 250 bhp)
intercooler
pipework
throttle body adaptor
oil pressure sensor T-off for oil to turbo
A decent healthy engine and gearbox!

Details vary depending on what you want but that's a pretty comprehensive list.

what turbo do i need is there just one. or does it depend on what power i wont was looking at a garrett t28

[raviedavie]

Totally depends what power you want and the spec of the engine to be honest. I've got a brand new T25 I'm selling but that won't get you big power , 200 plus but not a great deal more

[kj16v]

T28 with a 60 trim compressor is a great choice. will make an easy 200 bhp at around 8 psi. Good for about 240 bhp. The T25 is more suited to 1.4-1.6 litre engines.

im going to be rebuilding the engine from block up wont around 300 or top 200 would a garrett t34 for be better it off a cosworth

[kj16v]

Oh yeah, forgot about that. Definitely need bigger injectors!

A T34 would be a great choice but space is veeery tight. You'll need a different manifold to the log manifold I nentioned earlier. Look around www.Protoxide.it to find an example of the design of manifold you'll need.

Oh and if really want 300 bhp start saving to get the gearbox strengthened because it's made of strawberry bootlaces

IMHO 300 bhp is overkill for a Clio - unless your car will just be for drag racing. Even 200 bhp is f*cking quick in a Clio when done right!
