well guys im back here with another W.I.P thread (the nickname pride goes to Quarmbo for his erm... ingenuity xD )

alot of you will know why my last one has stopped Rolling Eyes

any way
here we have a twingo gt on a 57 reg with 13k miles on it
according to renault she pushes out 100 bhp from a 1.2 TCE motor (1.2 16v turbo)

couple of things about the motor if people don't know Razz

it has a water cooled turbo
sodium cooled valves
water/oil heat exchanger.

i know i know... sounds expensive for parts Embarassed

you'd be right xD

this is how it was bought

then the parts started to arrive

wind deflectors already Very Happy

my old zorst went on off the 206

induction kit!

canbus led sidelights and HiD's Wink

obviously some photo's had to be taken

bonus of it being so narrow Wink

then a problem occured...

K&N's induction kit that was made for this car has a design fault... there is no weight supporting the filter so it vibrates out the pipe! i tightened it up thinking it was just me and oops! i put a crack in it Sad

i thought about it and reckoned if there was another bracket like the one in the kit it might support it... so i queued the music and found my workshop Razz

bracket made to sit under the jubilee clip that holds the filter to the pipe

sadly after what seemed like sucess it failed again Sad

the vibrations were jsut too much for it so i had another think and remembered the bit of stainless pipe i got bent for the 206

now i know some people might spot the cable ties and the block of wood but please do understand this is temporary till i get a bracket welded on the pipe so it holds itself up off the engine mount and sparker leads.

also!

removed the twingo sticker from the back. Must've been made of kevlar! it took chunks out of me and my mates nails trying to peel it off!

there's much more to go with the little thing i.e
remap
FMIC kit
rest of the zorst done
lowered
alloys
interior

and various little things Razz

hope i didn't bore you!

1.2 TCE GT 3d 0-60 9.5 s top speed 117 mph

apparently
(from parkers website)
in comparision to my old car

2.0 HDi Sport 3d 0-60 11.2 s top speed 111 mph

Think their great little cars, could just do with the back end treating to some goodies. 197 style diffuser? twin exhausts?

You mean the renaultsport? I like the idea of the 1.2 turbo, the renaultsport seems a bit predictable with a 1.6 NA

can't get insured on it its a group 8 where as this is a group 5 plus with a bit of tinkering it can blow a renaultsport away
