chris260 Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 It's been done in 6N polos before so it's definitely possible. Might be worth asking on club polo too to see if they can shed any light as i've not seen one done on a lupo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrappy doo Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 (edited) that will b a glorious project.... get it done lol.if and when you fit it best thing to do is remove the boost return pipe back to the g lader makes a big diffrence and plus u get the woooooshhhing sound on every gear change unless u did know that lol also best to disconnect the butterfly on boost return ands fit a bov with less boost leak thats what i plan to on my g60 sorry if you know all this all ready Edited June 5, 2008 by scrappy doo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrazyKev Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 I'd advise against blocking off the boost return, this provides precious oil vapor to the scroll of the supercharger, without this the scrolls dry up and tend to wear very quickly. We've rebuilt enough chargers at jabbasport to know what works and what doesnt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
