   What do I need in order to run safely 300-320bhp?
   
   I'm thinking of doing an engine swap from the Megane to the Clio 197.

   I think over 300 to be reliable would require uprated internals.

   Pistons only, or the con rods too?
   
   Anything else?
   
   Hybrid turbo - which one proved to be the best for the Megane?
   Injectors - which ones if necessary?
   IC - need to see which one would fit best in the Clio
   downpipe
   
   Anything else?

   I think the rods are the weak link, IIRC they're the same as 182 spec? Be silly not to stick some pistons in if you have all the rods out...
