the van obv has the larger fmic with 2 inch pipework the boost has been increased and that's it engine wise. Before had those I raced a fiesta st and I think he was a little surprised 2 see the combo van that him and his mates were previously laughing at by the side of him.
And cheers 4 all the other comments guys.

I've been in a 182 with KTEC Turbo conversion on. Was black like yours too. Very fast! It cost the lad a fortune to have it done

Sounds good so basically its been mapped? with a larger front intercooler have you replaced the exhaust system? not suprised you kept up tbh it, after 1st they are fairly quick even bog standard

to be fair, both look nice
There are much worst cars than renaults out there...(not saying they are bad, just wondering why you said anti-renault comments are welcome).

I have had a connect and was going 2 get one instead of the combo but i found that the combo would be far easier to modify than the connect. Also the combo is good to drive after work as well cuz its basically a corsa with a box on the back lol.

Yeh I looked at the Combo before I bought the Connect but decided I couldn't own 2 Corsa C's and also the Combo was marginally smaller internally iirc.
Went out in a mates work van Combo yesterday though and it's far better built and nicer to be in than my van I never intended to modify my van as it was part of the business and that was it, but ah well
Been pricing up new ones this afternoon again
Yours though looks absolutely ace!

ha ha ha cheers mate i never intended 4 my van to look like this. I originally planned 2 put a set of 4 stud 16 inch softstars on it that i had lying around. When i took the wheel trims off and found that it was 5 stud i was gutted then i thought about it 4 a bit and astra GSi snowflakes sprung 2 mind. its like once u start there is no stopping. Im really really tempted with a z20 let conversion but im trying my hardest to resist as i like the fuel economy of the diesel and its fairly fast.
