"110bhp on standard biist but could be turn up maybe up 160hp without an intercooler and up to 250hp with an intercooler"

Shropshire.

you could crank the boost up to 30psi, you might see 250 bhp for about a second.

Then you would see the gearbox in your lap. *hehe!*

i doubt it would flow that well to produce it. If it's a metro turbo it certainly won't be efficient to 30psi.

that engine wouldnt make 200bhp never mind 250, the head is a home grown porter of my own with opened up combustion chambers and std metro sized valves, stock lift avonbar stage 2 cam, 22357 +20 pistons, man have thay taken some stick tho *wink* and the bottom end is stock, my bro calls it the head gasket monster*happy* altho a solid engine it is, done very few miles since a full rebuild, and brand spanking new turbo*surprised* on reworked manifold, a bargain at that price, congrats on the profit matey *tongue*

dodgy what is dodgy about this conversion and 250 isnt that unrealistic depending on the size of the inercooler obiously the transmission would go first and i didnt end the auction for the car ebay pulled it for miscatergization so i decided to split it as the engine sold for nearly as much as the car

All that in one sentence!!

Sorry mate utter bulsh1t!

Many Folk on here have edged around the 200BHP mark after alot of hard work, devolpement and alot of cash.

A ported head and phase 2 cam and an intercooler the size of Greater London will not produce your claimed figures.

However, it is on Ebay, shiney in the pictures and bid up to £786 with 17 bids so far, some muppet will believe you and buy it, just nobody from this forum.

Do the math(s), the standard metro T3 will flow 170bhp max, an intercooler the size of a bus won't change the law of thermodynamics!

i feel real bad for the dude that has bought this, he will see this thread and shit razorblades ! i have no doubt you have promised him the earth amongst the shite that appeareth to be spouting from thy mouth. bad news is he will know where you live i guess.

shame when this happens, my engine was promised to be a chuck in ready to go, it was a full on lemon, not even a turbo in the end ! and i was sick as a chip !

Hmmmm...

I have a Cosworth with a standard T3 and it runs over 300 bhp, but it's not the same T3 as in a Metro.

Maybe you should learn what A/Rs and trim mean. And compressor maps as well maybe ???

And, although I'm not a fan of Renault, I thought they used T2s in the Renault 5 ???
