There's a guy just joined the 21toc and one of his cars is a Clio with 21t engine Shocked he's seemingly on the last stages of it, we've asked him for piccie's, sound's interesting.

I'd be very very dubious about that claim.

I've heard it's a hard enough job getting it to fit a 19!

Thing is it's easy to make a profile and a forum and spout bullshit.

it would need extensive re-working to fit in the engine bay in either direction.

Wouldn't go that far accusing someone of bullshitting before they've had a chance to prove themselves. I thought you were BSing about the V6 into a R19, but you must have nearly finished that by now.

Well the V6 has been moved on due to a lack of time, funds and expertise.

And I wasn't condemning someone before them having a chance to prove themselves, just saying that in my experience, it's easy to make a profile, say you've got such and such a car that's had such and such done to it.

There's one guy on RSC called 'Valverguy'. He claimed his Clio 16v would piss on everyone elses and that it had some big whoop-dee-do power figure that was proven on a RR and he even challenged people like Sven when he had the banana.

In the end though he never came up with the proof to back up his claims.

What took the biscuit was that a newbie came on the forum with a name like 'slammed_19 chamade_16v' and said he had a 19 Chamade with 270bhp from a turbo'd F7P and some wild cams and 19" alloys. Foz checked his IP and it was the same as this Valverguy's!
