DAS HAPPIWAGEN Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 What differences are there between the 75 and 100 bhp 1.4 16v lupos?Someone told me all the engine components are the same, it's literally just a case of plugging in a different ecu?25% power increase? yes please.

Defcon5 Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 I think the sport has different cams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electricpanda Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 Its the cams I think. There alot more "leary" on the sport. I think so anyway cause My car seems to have all its power nearer the top end and not much below 3k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAS HAPPIWAGEN Posted September 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 Yeah sounds about right, It just wouldn't be that easy would it? hahaAh well. I'll just leave it, I'm not sure that the power gains from an induction kit would even justify the price on a 75bhp? pay £70 odd for 1, maybe 2 bhp. I'm on a budget here!While im here, anyone got any 2nd hand springs for sale?Or 2nd hand induction kits?Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
