My_Names_Buck Posted August 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Brilliant! Thank you both very much for that link! I'm very very tempted at these.... Does anybody know what sort of weight saving these would have over standard as well? Thank you Sam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bikerz Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 (edited) Brilliant! Thank you both very much for that link! I'm very very tempted at these.... Does anybody know what sort of weight saving these would have over standard as well?Thank you Sam.A Huge amount. Just about to put some in mate ZR race car. Will ask him the weight saving on his and you can guess from there.What engine did you start with on this car? Why a LP head (looks like) and yet what looks like a SP inlet manifold, doesnt make sense to me. I guess its actually a small port APX head (APX engine?)For the 5 windows on a ZR over 30kg saving!

I'll b looking into this idea more over the winter months I think and its and APY engine started life in a audi s3, think it was like a 2002 model.... You've got ms curious thou now with this inlet n what not lol.Why have a never seen this in Tamworth!!!??? Looking good mate Haha tbf really not long had her back this year only got her back like 6 weeks ago or summin like that n since then I been doin a few little bits to her, I dont recall seein that sexy yellow lupe around thou either?

Mike_M Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 Very nice.Wish I had this power in my Audi S3 when I had it. It was only pushing 280 with a REVO but it was still fun.........it must be a real handful with more power and in a Lupo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bikerz Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 (edited) It will be a Pre 2002 S3 lump then mate. 210bhp.It will be a small port head (get a LP head and SEM inlet manifold for more power and better flow). (SEM will cost you £800 and a LP head goes for approx £150, your probally want to go for a S4 or RS4 Throttle body too which you can pick up for £70 if your lucky) 70mm and 75mm. I have a R32 one on my TT.AGU or A** (Found on 180 1.8T's) are the Large power heads and a must when going over 400bhp (My TT has one, and that has been worked with cams and 1mm larger valves on all 5) Edited September 2, 2011 by Bikerz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadmetal Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 Awesome build Damn near 400bhp through the front wheels of a Lupo, the short wheel base must make a grin manchine when you drive it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is genuinely very very helpful to me and much appreciated, your also now starting to give me ideas of more power..... lol, but on a serious note i think i will be keeping my eyes peeled on those bits and some possible winter modifications I live in Kingsbury so I'm always driving around Tamworth! Do you ever go down Asda on a friday or sat night? Some nice dubs down there if the turn outs good! Are you going Edition 38?Ahhh i'll definitely keep an eye out for you then, with not having the car back from the garage long and then tinkering when i got it home i really havent been out in it much but given some nice evenings i should be out n about a bit more very occasionally i may tootle past but never been really been down properly. and yes i was at edition good weekend thank you.Also a big thank you to everyone else for your comments on my car Sam. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
