datsme Posted 20, May 2017 Report Share Posted 20, May 2017 Hey OzRENAULTsport bro's and sistaz. I have had my rs 265 for about 18 months & I love it. Such a great package! Quick question, can u flash tune your rs265 to bring the engine to 275??? Will renault still cover the warranty if this work gets done? Ok Ok it was 2 questions???? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckovski Posted 20, May 2017 Report Share Posted 20, May 2017 G'day and welcome; glad you're loving it. I spoke to Renault Australia about warranties and modifications and they said that if something fails as a direct result of the modifications they won't cover it but they will cover the rest of the car. Have a read through the RS tuner thread and the Megane technical thread. There are quite a few unfortunately. It's taking me a long time to get up to speed and even then I'm not hundred percent sure about tuning. There are two major plug and play ones: RS tuner and Bluefin. Just be aware that limp mode can be a problem and Renault Australia definitely won't cover that. Quite a few places locally will also tune it on a Dyno. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swilliamson Posted 20, May 2017 Report Share Posted 20, May 2017 With a simple dyno tune, youd be looking at anywhere between 295 and 310 bhp depending on the car. Probably the best bang for buck mod power wise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swilliamson Posted 21, May 2017 Report Share Posted 21, May 2017 I'd argue that performance tyres are a better mod (will get you better acceleration, braking, cornering, overall lap times) For track driving definitely, but I think the tune would be more noticeable and effective on a day to day basis.

Race Spec tuning does a great one for driveability. Don't think it's wise under warranty though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
