Maverick Posted 10, March 2012 Report Posted 10, March 2012 Hi all, Has anyone done engine upgrade modifications to the Renault Scenic 2.0. Anyone can put wheels and a bodykit on, but how about turbocharging or modifying these engines for a little extra performance. Maurice Quote
griffyn Posted 10, March 2012 Report Posted 10, March 2012 Yes, there's one with a supercharger running around Victoria. Tows a Formula racer if I have the right end of the stick. Quote
Maverick Posted 11, March 2012 Author Report Posted 11, March 2012 Has anyone tried sticking a Megane 225 engine in a Scenic?? Quote
griffyn Posted 11, March 2012 Report Posted 11, March 2012 I imagine it would fit quite easily, provided you took out the rear seats Quote
nemz Posted 12, March 2012 Report Posted 12, March 2012 I imagine it would fit quite easily, provided you took out the rear seats Not this thing again Quote
Maverick Posted 12, March 2012 Author Report Posted 12, March 2012 I imagine it would fit quite easily, provided you took out the rear seats The engine is in the front and the bays are almost identical why would I remove the rear seats?? Quote
nemz Posted 12, March 2012 Report Posted 12, March 2012 I imagine it would fit quite easily, provided you took out the rear seats The engine is in the front and the bays are almost identical why would I remove the rear seats?? You asked if it'd fit, didn't say anything about where in the car. We had a trick question like that during the National's quiz, only with a Kangoo. Quote
Apex Posted 12, March 2012 Report Posted 12, March 2012 It would fit. You would want to swap the entire front end, suspension, hubs, brakes etc. Would make a epic family wagon sleeper. Not sure about body kits, I would just throw some RS225 Wheels on it and it would look quite nice, maybe lower it slightly. Quote
Dish Posted 12, March 2012 Report Posted 12, March 2012 I think Scenics could do with a front spoiler for the practical purpose of keeping the front end down at higher speeds. I find mine gets a little floaty at 90km/h and above As for engine swaps, I reckon a fun project down the track would be to make a mini Espace F1 out of it, with something like a Clio V6 engine and transmission Quote

Maurice Hi Maurice, Hans at Hi Performance Products in Melbourne suburb of Mitcham is the man to speak to. He supercharged the Scenic for a chap who tows the Formula Vee, that Griffyn mentions. www.hi-flow.com hans at hi-flow.com phone - 03 9874 1800 Quote
