    Find a nice exhaust and intake ?

    Set of ferodo DS200 pads, decent brake fluid (motul 660), upgraded engine mount/mounts then track it... great little cars!!

    • @fullboost
      @fullboost  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sounds like a plan ;-)

    good vid love seeing what stock cars can do B-)

    A short intake to a pod makes the induction noise sound so nice. A resonator delete makes the exhaust crackle on deceleration.

      I like the fact that the car is quiet :)

    I was impressed it got into the 14s. Not bad for a stock frog

    I miss it. Few things. It is the Cup model but no, they didn't come with LSDs which is a shame. The tune is an off the shelf "98 octane tune". The RSTuner guy is Dutch I think and will send you custom maps which you can use the same hardware to upload. Yes, they eat engine mounts but if you "upgrade" you add NVH to what is a very pleasant to drive car. Just keep replacing them with OEM. Renault got the balance right (apart from the LSD). It's a great , easy to live with street car in stock form. Please do some track days with just the basic mods - brakes, rubber. That's where it will shine although it is also a great street car. There's not much it can't keep up with in the twisties. The car I'm driving now is significantly more powerful and AWD but I still miss that FWD Megane a lot and may have to buy another one at some stage.

    The Skoda Cupra lip is a popular replacement for the factory lip. Google says they're about $150

    Id recommend the superpro rear swaybar. They are easy to fit and improve turn in.

    • @TheWretchedWorld
      @TheWretchedWorld 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      That would be because theyre an Australian brand. Im pretty sure there is retailer in the UK that stocks them.

    • @TheWretchedWorld
      @TheWretchedWorld 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Kamracing the one they stock is for the mk iii but they should be able to get you one for the mk ii

    These burn the thought the engine mounts. Better to upgrade them. Only the r26 and r26r came with lsd's. There is a quaife that you can get for it. Better rubber and suspension and you should be pulling in porsches at the track. These cars are more about corners than quarter miles but it is good to see they can get in to the 14's in almost stock form. There is a guy in emu plains that does really good tunes for renault's.

    • @ArtVandelayOfficial

      pulling in Porsches? come on mate get real

    • @aaronpronto2183
      @aaronpronto2183 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Art Vandelay, Sad..but true. My mate has one. Drives it to and from work each day, then competes in club days, hillclimbs and motorkhana's on weekends. Better rubber, secondary bonnet latch, air filter and exhaust aannnnnnd...it successfully competes against cars like porches, turbo falcons ect. Id never have one, but his has been trouble free.

    How much would that be at the flywheel ?

    • @fullboost

    • @victorfu5979

      Why you don’t do interesting builds like the ford territory on carnage from streetmachine they chopped it down and added nitrous to it.

  • @victorfu5979

    Taking this to a quarter is like deep frying chocolate. Not what it is for. Thrash it from Bright to Hotham and back.

    • @fullboost
      @fullboost  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes we have done many country roads in this car and in stock form it performs quite well.

    • @chrisdooley6468
      @chrisdooley6468 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Agree totally. I lived in marseille for years and have some experience tuning my Renaults and they can be a bit problematic if not done right. It’s a great driving car for what it is

  • @facundotaborda3909

    No es la vercion con turbo.. f4r t tiene 225cv de origen

    • @fullboost
      @fullboost  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The dyno measures power at the wheels, of course it's going to make less thna 225hp.

  • @dissidentjv5887
    @dissidentjv5887 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just 183hp ? No turbo ?

    • @johnwilson1794
      @johnwilson1794 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      That's wheel hp. That's a pretty good figure for a bone stock 2 litre daily driver. There's a significant loss through the drivetrain. For instance an AMG Benz which makes 505hp at the flywheel makes 360hp at the wheels. I've seen them dynoed.

    • @exvils
      @exvils 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      loss through should be around 5% for FWD, 10% for rwd and 15-20% for awd cars

    • @johnwilson1794
      @johnwilson1794 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm only a mechanic with 25 years experience dissident what would I know? It's obvious kids on the internet are the experts.

    • @exvils
      @exvils 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      ChrisHallett83 bullshit, copied from SuperStreet article about SAE tests:
      . In the case of hypoid-type gearsets (where the gear tooth profile is both curved and oblique) that are commonly used in RWD differentials, losses in the 6 to 10 percent range are the norm, while loss from the driveshaft(s) and prop shaft(s) tend to account for about 0.5 to 1 percent of total loss, depending on how well they're balanced and how many the vehicle is equipped with. In the case of FWD vehicles, the torque path is more direct to the front wheels and the use of efficient helical final drive gears means that drivetrain losses can be as much as 50 percent lower than on RWD and AWD vehicles

    • @fullboost
      @fullboost  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      The power seems consistent from other cars we have seen here in Australia.

    • @fullboost

      Yes it certainly has a unique design that's for sure.

    I’m surprised it’s lasted this long because all French vehicles manufacturers are rubbish. Some model I’ve work on different brands have engine , transmission, wiring and just all around rubbish design of almost everything put or designed on each model or brand of French vehicle’s

    • @alycestapleton
      @alycestapleton 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Anthony Flood are you even in the automotive industry for or have ever worked as a technician or mechanic, !? I guess not you fuckwit

    • @anthonyflood2283
      @anthonyflood2283 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Gaz Girl So just because you work at a toyota dealer changing oil filters you know all. I make sense when I type sentences because I am not stupid. I have owned and built many cars, probably more than you ever will of your own. Would love to be a mechanic full time but the money is shit and I earn more in my industry. So sorry just because I'm not in your same industry, I am clearly not as superior as you. You wanna bag people out without any retaliation, you clearly get butt hurt rather easy.

    • @alycestapleton
      @alycestapleton 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Anthony Flood really have nothing to say do you . read your own sad comment again to yourself. Also where did you get the assumption or thought that I worked at a Toyota dealership?!. Wow you are too funny indeed because you have no evidence’s or anything else to support such a claim/ claims because you haven’t ever meet me or will in your lifetime nor anyone else that I know . So to sum it up for you Zionist of Israel slave you are nothing and can’t come up with anything to support your claims or intentions to belittling me . So just stfu Zionist of Israel slave manchild . I think it’s passed your bed time muppet

    • @exvils
      @exvils 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Gaz Girl is right, Renault from '97-09 era made rubish cars.. as he said.. tho only thing i like are some engines.. like 2.0 f7r megane engine used in btcc that made 320hp (thats more then hp/l of formula antlantic 4age's)
