well slight change of plans. I had good buy off ebay purchased a 1.8 clio 16v on full weber alpha managment fitted with throttle bodies, car also had koni adjustables, new heat shield full leather,etc,etc so the throttle bodies are going on the 2.0 megane engine in my car along with the ECU etc should be nice and quick.

finally my Dcoe inlet manifold arrived from belgium. Big thanks to craig (stan on here) for ordering it up. fitted the bodies tonight bit of a sweat had to grind away part of the powersteering pump and make clearence for the throttle linkage but all is well runs nicely. Need to get it remapped asap now as its only running webers standard map for the 1.8. cant wait to drive it
