Duncan Greir on RTOC owned the Car
Scoff on RTOC did a lot of the custom engineering

You basically need a modified subframe & engine mounts & then all of the relevent 20V Turbo bits.

I've a MK1 Williams with the 20V conversion in. I didn't do the work, a guy called Flan on WilliamsClio did it.

My car runs 246 BHP & is proper quick! :lol:

Here's a load of pictures of my Clio.

Audi, Seat, skoda it's the 1.8 20v turbo engine they use, Im belive some engines are slightly better spec than others within and some come with different turbo's

As Steve says above Scoff done the R5 conversion now ownerd by Minty on RTOC. And Steve has a super sexy 16v clio with the conversion aswell
