[QUOTE="yotah1, post: 182480, member: 599"] It is... To summarize the thing : Dropping the engine and gearbox in it is fairly easy. Driveshafts actually fit the new gearbox and can take the abuse. But that's where it ends... The lower left side subframe needs to be hammered away to fit the box, you must weld a new torque arm dogbone mount under the car, solid engine and gearbox mounts are a must have if you don't want the entire engine and gearbox knocking against your frame under heavy cornering, ecu must be standalone as Clio and Twingo speak two different coding languages unlike Meganes and Clios who share a lot of mapping together, 182 radiator is useful, as well as an extra oil cooler, 182 exhaust manifold is the only one that fits under the Twingo's cowl panel, and you need a Miltek downpipe to follow after that, original dash won't be able to display the engine data so you need a programmable dash, clio 197 gearbox cables and lever fit the Twingo even though it's tight. That's all i can think about right now... It took us over a year to do the conversion properly, the main issue being the programming, even though my engine mapper was a Renault guru and it's actually his daily job to do stuff like that.
