Recommended Posts

So I Bought a Lupo 1.4 (2001) , and I really want to kit it up.

What parts do I require to tune it up, for example, Turbo, Lowering kits and where from?

I want to increase performance and the look of the car?

Any links to what parts I should purchase  

 

Please Help Me Kit It Up

Has anyone turbo'd a 1.4? I'd love to see it happen. Fuel economy + some performance. 

You'll have to get a custom manifold and ecu etc. Lot of work but I'd love to see such a project. It's as awesome as it is barmy.

Lowering is easy enough. You've got your cheap coilovers which look great, but handle like crap. £150-£250.

You've got your good coilovers which handle significantly better £500 up. 

You've got lowering springs which keeps your OEM shocks so should feel ok. I think some adjustment is required to stop them causing premature wear.

If you're genuinely serious, I imagine you'll get a lot of attention on this forum.

A swap will cost about 5k plus the engine if you to the place near me. They're very good but they're not cheap. Can't remember what they're called but they're known nationally for their work. A couple of Barry bodgers might do it on the cheap but can't really guarantee the quality. I've seen some horrible engine conversions in the past.
