  1. CASPER, have you got the site? Clocks etc from any 1.8T can match the electics of my Lupo 1.4 80hp? Is it same procedure whether the engine is 150hp FWD and 225 4WD 6 speed? What would you suggest? I would love to have a 6 speed gearbox. What about fitting an eaton kompressor on my engine with a custom program on a new ECU? But keeping internal components stock? Will it work? Thank you all for your replies.
  2. What I also like about the TSi vs 1.8T is that it is lighter and the fuel consumption rocks. The spare engine i got is combined with a manual box, but would love to have a DSG instead! Was there any Lupo with a climate control? Can we have this fitted on my car with the standard engine or the Golf TSi engine? I have got the complete car Golf GT MK5. Many thanks in advance. Alexis
  3. Dear sirs, We got my mother a new car and I am now using the Lupo as a daily driver which I enjoy. If I don't sell it at the price I am asking, I will definitely make some changes. Let me tell you what I consider. I have already purchased a set of 15" BBS RM split rims, I am trying to decide on a coilover kit, and then is the brakes, casper's interior and engine. The most important is to maintain this car as a daily driver, as I have got a Seven and a '77 Vette. So this one has to be fast on traveling, fast around the track but also suitable to drive everyday. I have got a 1.4 TSi engine from a Golf GT with 5000 miles on clock the one with 170hp. Is this an easy conversion? Does it sit on the same mounts that my engine does? Would you suggest it or not? I think I'd rather fit this engine instead of the 1.8turbo, as it consumes much less and I don't want to run the Lupo more than 230bhp. What about modifying my current engine 1.4 16V with 80bhp (less than 12 000miles covered). Is there a turbo kit that some one has used? Or probably someone has put an Eaton supercharger in this engine? From a Cooper S for example? in these two cases what bhp should we expect? What would you suggest? Many thanks Alexis
  4. Have you still got the TA technix for sale?

    Why did you remove them?

  5. I don't think G-Maxx is Jamex. What do you think of Jamex? Has anyone fitted this kit? Also what do you mean by removing the adjuster? TA Technix will work for track use? Is the handling much better that stock? Many thanks, I am just starting the modifications on my car a 1.4 16V 1999 Lupo with 12000genuine miles..!!
