hi their l have just bought a renault 5 car with standard gt turbo engine l am thinking about making this car go faster does anyone have any reccomendations of the best engine size it is only a 1.4 at the moment

good for you

renault five turbos are sh1t of a shovel already they are hard cars to handle with none of the modern abs traction control gadgets . they are already very highly tuned cars so tuning them any more might get expensive .

just fit a bigger carb jet and bigger intercooler and up the boost, plenty much more bhp for plenty not much dosh

If it is not red,, paint it red !!!

sell it, its a dirt box, 2000 quid bet it`ll go on fire on u.

l would only clean it is carb.remember that this vehicle has no abs

l had a GT Turbo, they r really easy to tune up, l fitted a bleed valve on mine so it ran at a higher boost level. Unfortunately they r also very easy to blow up, l did not blow mine up but i'm sure l would have eventually.

l got rid of mine because it decided it wanted to leave the island l was on before l wanted it too, nearly went through a wall backwards.

They r quick, they r tempremental, & they can be dangerous with the handling.

My recommendation is to do everything properly & logically, changes to brakes / suspension should come before any power mods.

There r plenty of GT turbo enthusiast sites out there, try the GT Turbo owners club. Read all about them, do ur homework, learn from others mistakes (it costs less), & above all enjoy ur little pocket rocket.
