lupoGT Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 Hi all,Looking for a doner vehicle for a 20vt conversion on my lupo so i will have everything at my disposal rather than just buying seperate components. Then break rest of car to get cash for driveshafts/intercooler/other non oe parts etc Need it to be a 180hp motor but cant work out what vehicles in the vag group have these fitted. Also is it possible to interchange ecu's and turbo's from say the bam engine or high power 1.8's to an 150/180 motorO i forgot to say its got to be a resonably cheap doner vehicle Would like your guys feedback so i can get the doner and begin the project.Thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electricpanda Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 Erm correct me if im wrong but I think theres:A3 1.8T sport - 180bhpSeat Ibiza Cupra R - 180bhpPre 2003 Seat Leon 20v T Sport/Cupra/FR - 180bhp02-04 VW Golf Gti(180ps) - 180bhpSkoda Octavia Vrs - 180bhpTheres probably more, I dunno which ones are the best to use or if theres any differences between them. I think most people use the Cupra or Gti engines?Hope thats helped! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
