Re: Renult megane turbo
is this the megane 225? Parkers says 0-60 in 6.3 and i bet once its rolling its as fast as a rev 3 being a modern turbo and all. You have to remember your car is over 10 years old!
Compare it to a ten year old megane and you would be hugely faster.

Re: Renult megane turbo
get a intercooler and get it remaped should see a few gains there.... not had a run in with one of these yet but i ate a clio wide bodie 255 a month or so ago he didnt look inpressed
Re: Renult megane turbo
Well matey if you want an intercooler i have a greddy intercooler kit that i bought as i didn't think that i would manage to get the phoenix power one. If your interested mate give me a pm with an offer?
The kit is complete with all pipe work, hoses and clips. I can send you pic's if you want?

It could well have been modded, come from the world of Renaults over at cliosport.net and they are easily remapped up to the 250ish mark in which case you wouldn't massively beat it in and averagely modded tubby. Even if it were standard its like the rev 1-2 vs the rev 3 sort of power differences and there's not masses in that.
I have dispatched an astra vxr in mine comfortably and i'm running an exhaust, induction kit and downpipe with no boost increase as yet, and they are supposed to be very marginally quicker than a 225.
