right, im a bit confused here. What ill do is put down what ive been able to gather, and if you know different, please correct me:

3 types of RS clio...172mk1, 172mk2, 182

172mk1 = normal cable throttle

172mk2 = drive by wire throttle + some kind of integration with the plip/immobiliser etc

182 = same as 172mk2, diff engine map

is that about the size of it?

Its safe to assume theres 101 different ECU's, all with plip/immob integration

no plip is the key for the doors, silences the alarm which is part of the ECU setup thus integrated.

The clios use standard keys and they have transponders as well.

I wouldn't bother with the 172 ECU.

ud need the all the key codes as well i think, as the 172 ECU has built in alarm/immpbiliser. somthing like that anyways. use a custom mappable setup, like lumenition, efi, motec, etc

ahha... just as i expected... you boyos are more helpful then cliosport and RSC put together Smile

I was planning on using megasquirt anyway, but thought the standard ECU might save a lot of faffing by having it running ignition... looks like it would cause it now.
