Renault turbo rebuilds and hybrids

For a Renault turbo rebuild or hybrid, GP Turbos in Scunthorpe has history with the diesels: its old shop listed a reconditioned 1.9 diesel turbo and a 2.0 dCi hybrid.

Renault in GP Turbos' listings

Renault had a small section in the GP Turbos shop by late 2020, and the archived pages never show more than two items in it:

  • a reconditioned Garrett 717348 for the 1.9 diesel (engine F9Q 782, Renault part 8200046681), listed for the Clio and Mégane and for the Volvo S40 and V40
  • a billet-wheel hybrid for the 2.0 dCi in the Laguna, Mégane, Espace and Scénic; no specification for it survives

Renault's petrol performance engines did not appear in those listings, so for them start with the part number on the turbo. If a turbo has failed, find the cause first: see the turbo failure guide. A rebuild restores the original specification; a hybrid makes sense only where the engine and its calibration can use the extra airflow.

GP Turbos is independent of Renault. Model names are used only to identify which cars a turbo fits.

Renault performance engines and their turbos

Mégane R.S. (F4Rt 2.0 turbo)

The 2.0 turbo petrol had a twin-scroll Mitsubishi turbo in the Mégane II Sport 225, and the same engine powers the Mégane III R.S. 250, 265 and 275. Renault describes the turbo on the later 1.8-litre Mégane R.S. Trophy as running on a ceramic ball-bearing system.

Renault 5 GT Turbo (1,397 cc)

Phase 1 cars used an air-cooled Garrett T2; Phase 2 cars added water cooling to the turbo.
