davy26 Posted April 27, 2019 Report Share Posted April 27, 2019 Not an awful lot that's Lupo-recognisable here, but a smack in the eye for anyone thinking their 1.8 lump conversion offers optimum performance! https://engineswapdepot.com/?p=39617 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2 Posted April 27, 2019 Report Share Posted April 27, 2019 Yeah, but i don't get it. If going that radical/not roadworthy, may as well use an Audi A4 Estate or Volvo estate chassis, go twin W12 or jet power... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sausage Posted April 27, 2019 Report Share Posted April 27, 2019 It's about 7% Lupo and so chopped about it is only a Lupo in name only tbh. A road going lupo with 1000+hp would be a thing to behold, this is not that thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But where is the fun in that? 1.8t engines and boxes are a good bit easier to source than W12 5 hours ago, Sausage said: It's about 7% Lupo and so chopped about it is only a Lupo in name only tbh.

Silver! Posted April 28, 2019 Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 Interesting engineering project. So many changes though I don't see how this can still be defined as a Lupo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
battlebus Posted April 29, 2019 Report Share Posted April 29, 2019 Well its enough Lupo for me 😁 I could have done with the roof line remaining but other than that its excellent in my book. I am chasing more torque in mine soon, its going to be nowhere near this but I do get exactly why they used a small car to start, too many massive shiny p3nis extensions around in the road and a tiny car with a big engine turns them into an inny every time 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skezza Posted April 29, 2019 Report Share Posted April 29, 2019 That looks like arse to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
