Thank you, I can assure you that the lights and bonnet bra have long gone :) ... The car has also been lowered by over 6 inch (AP Coilovers) Since the filming of this vid the car has also been dyno'd (112Hp/164Nm) Compared to the stock 100Hp,145NM. Upcoming mods are ... pressed plate's (Waiting to go on) and a FMIC. Possible exhaust change, and then finally a set of wheels. Job done then :) Ill be posting a Image vid shortly so you can see the car properly :)
Hi, The T branching is the feed i use for my boost gauge on the dash. At the time of this vid it was only fitted in quickly, it is now much neater. The original pipe is strong enough to support the HKS dump valve with out any support. BUT i found that because it is made from soft rubber and is quite long, If you use a short silicone replacement, Throttle response increases. The Dump valve is heavier than stock, But not by much. I hope this helps
@BrunoCarrilho @BrunoCarrilho The orignal Dump valve has broke (Perforated Diaphragm). Renault refused to sell me a replacement, K-Tec's Replacement is no better. Found that HKS was one of the best, brought one, Fitted it and job done. Also, the engine now pulls much more strongly, has less hesitancy when pulling off, Quicker throttle response and a much nicer noise than the (asthmatic) original.
Hello Craig, Nice job! Why is this T branching needed in the vacuum tube? Do you have to apply any holder for the valve, or only the original tube holds it? Is this kit not too heavy? Thanks for the infos!
Standard dump valves have a habit of breaking. You shouldn't really get any flutter with the standard valve so theres defiantly something wrong. I recommend either the HKS like mine, Or a Forge 007 valve as a direct replacement. neither of them are cheep, but they are both very good and reliable.
Yes, By removing the Recirc pipe and blocking the hole of with a 25mm bung, Your car will still work in the same way and have no issues (Mines ran like this since i got it pretty much, 6 years on ... not a single issue) Apparently, running it this way will cause fuelling issues, I can tell you that it is complete bull. as this would only cause a issue on a closed loop system (Which the TCe dont have.)
Nice! Not sure if would want to spend the money but it would make me smile even time I lifted off the accelerator.

Hi mate, is it possible to let the car in the full atmospheric mode with the standard bov ??? using the 25mm plug ?? thx
hi can i put the same valve on a ranault clio mk3 1.6 .or do i hve to put in a turbo details plz
I've got a Clio 1.2 TCE but even the standard BOV doesn't sound like this. In fact I get turbo flutter when I change at light throttle at 2.5k rpms?
Would this be an issue? The car has only done 13,000 miles and is still under manufacturers warranty.

would that fit on to my clio estate 1.5 dci
what is the benefit of that?
Its 25mm mate
Dude, the sound with the new bov is excellent but those lights and stuff that you add on the hood ruined the car! =/
No it makes no difference to the warranty.
