Has anyone else noticed the stock intercoolers on stage 1 megane rs are terrible in traffic and when it goes above 17c I have just ordered a 17 row 60mm type to try and cure it You can tell straight away when its a warm day as the power loss is noticeable I have only owned the car since beginning of decso thought it was fine but now its warming up it struggles
Yup the std unit is cack, cant cope at all. I had a 60mm cooler and even on track it intake barely went a few deg over ambient, well worth it
Fully agree matty A very weak point on the Rs megane I read it's the same as the 1.9 diesel 130 bhp Joke really
Production costs and R&D are sometimes on an opposite way... specificly with Renault. even if i love these cars, honnestly some parts really sucks. Look at the OEM intercooler of a mrs3. This is not a powerfull part, same on 1.5 Dci...
If you have a stage 1 map on your car already and then go for an uprated intecooler, do you need it remapped again?
