We take a look at one of Winstons most famous rides. The Clio illiams. This RAT look, hood ride was featured by Performance French Car Magazine in 2007.
It is very much a modern icon of Clio modding, hoodrides are something almost exclusively left to the VW fraternity (Dubbers). We let Winston explain how this legend was born and how it died (as all of Winstons cars seem to do… ending up in scrap heaven!) Enjoy.
I have been checking out Speeds Hybrid on the forums. Be sure to look in the project section for the latest updates (be sure to pack your sunglasses)!
His latest mod is a group A/N MAXI air scoop, sent over from a French Renault tuning company.
The kit uses the Renault V6/172 airbox and an adaptor to connect it all up the the throttle-body. The setup was featured on the rally cars, and is the most efficient air intake system around taking high pressure COLD air from the scuttle panel just below the windscreen.
Cliolord gives us the low down and the build up.
He explains to us why his Valliams, an iTB’d, cammed animal of a hybrid failed back in 2008 on the way to the French Car Show. There is more to come from the lord, with is CUP brid. But thats another story!
We have a chat with Clio legend Winston and take a look at one of his older projects from 2006 the RSI-brid. An N reg Silver 16V, a thing of beauty, a true Euro Clio that defiantly touches all the right spots with me in terms of perfect Clio modding that didn’t seem to get the recognition it deserved in the press like some of his other Renault project cars have done in the past.
