hello everyone,

just wanted to start by saying the car is a 1.4s 16v 75bhp lupo and i have started doing a 1.8 turbo conversion on it which is nearly complete. :) its running g60 carriers with wilwood front 280mm brake conversion, the engines from an audi a3. so far everything has been done at home by my little brother and myself including fitting the audi gear linkage, converting the pedal box to a hydraulic clutch system and many more other things which i cant remember at the top off my head.

hope you like it.

bit rough but nice work ya getting there, wat are you going to use for management?

i know..i sleeved them... so they definetely handle some horses for sure... its all getting powdercoated and sand blasted. i opted for the original a3 ecu and probably run all sensors as i managed to track a down pipe with all the lamda sensors in it.

Look ace that does. If you need any help with the wiring give us a shout, as I can pass on the number for the guy that did V31UPO's car and that ran VAG management throughout.

thanks :) i definetely need help with electrics at some point.. i just want the car back together and then do them. plus running standard VAG is definetely the plan, so number pleeeeaaassseee :) what were the costs like?

I rate them too, I'll state their not cheap but the work is spot on.

If i could be arsed to dig out their card, I would. But I can't so I'll suggest just go look for ACR on www.section-5.net
