Engine Swap Dacia Duster 1.2 TCe - 2.0 F4R 874

[RO_GL36XXX]

Good afternoon, mates. I am new on this forum.
I own a Duster II (2018), Prestige. It has that discontinued 1.2 TCe (125hp) engine because it was faulty. I had faith that it will last longer with proper maintenance, seems like it loves to drink more oil than I expected.
I don't want to throw this beauty away, but I am able financially to do an upgrade. I want to start with a Megane III R.S. engine (F4R 874), keep in mind I will upgrade everything which needs to be upgraded (ECU, transmission, cooling system, braking, suspension etc.). Yes, I am able to support such a project.
I want to know if there is someone around here who did a similar swap, maybe on older model of Duster, I am sure I am not the only one.
What is your opinion? I am happy to hear some pros and cons about this idea.

A unique proposition, if you do it then fair play but it looks like alot of work

How did it go?

The Duster was available with a 2 litre engine in some markets, so shouldn't be too much of a stretch.

Really keen on this. I have just bought a 2014 Duster and would like to be the 1st with a 300 bhp turbo fitted. Has anyone done this yet?
