Want better turn in than it currently has.. Its pretty good as a road car used on track, but needs to develop further to be better on track. (and a little more power from the new motor will help a smidge) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arvid Posted January 5, 2005 Report Share Posted January 5, 2005 Actually it's very easy getting big BHP out of the 1.8T engines. I supply parts for instance that will let an S3 engine make about 550bhp:http://www.`dragon-racing`.nl/audi style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArosaMike Posted January 5, 2005 Report Share Posted January 5, 2005 Oh yeah...I know getting the power out of the engine is easy....it's just getting that power to the tarmac style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":o" border="0" alt="ohmy.gif" /> Specially on a FWD car!

LOL :wink: no m8 its going 1.9, largeport head, VF22, with JE pistons, forged rods etc4WD would help if it did'nt weight so much. Great for drag starts etc, but on track, unless extremely wet there's no advantage only the weight penalty. I would have a big turbo'd S3 for my road car tho... if money was'nt an object.Without a diff the Lupo does struggle for traction in the first 2 gears in the dry, and 3rd also in the damp.. Just fit an ATB diff tho.. sorted then. 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
