HGPLUPO Posted October 29, 2020 Report Share Posted October 29, 2020 Hi, New to the world of Lupo ownership and I wanted to throw myself in at the deep-end with a turbo conversion anyone done something similar or have any advice. I'm a fairly competent with my hands so all suggestions are welcome. Regards, HGP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weslangdon Posted October 29, 2020 Report Share Posted October 29, 2020 The 1.4 diesel is a turbo, its arguably the best all round model to buy too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HGPLUPO Posted October 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2020 so its a petrol model 1.4 16v so would i be able to put a diesel manifold on the petrol engine and then adapt my own turbo to the setup ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mk2 Posted October 29, 2020 Report Share Posted October 29, 2020 Don't mod. Not worth it. The amount you spend will be a lot more than simply upgrading your car! Been there, done that.... welcome to club lupo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrong place to start, you should start with a GTI if you want that much extra power, you need the brakes, suspension & lightness the GTI brings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
