Pete91 Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 The car's ****ing mint mate. Defo keep it and enjoy it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joti Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Yeah, but my point is Piers that you've had the air and new wheels all of 5 minutes.......You must love the car, or else why would you spend money on it, right? The car has "evolved" so now enjoy what you have created.You need only look at other threads to see people who have sold their Lupos and then lived to regret that decision.This might sound dumb, but re-read your own build thread start to finish and then see if you still feel the same.

scotty_82 Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 It's only metal mate, if your not enjoying it as much or have the itch for another marque then just sell while it's still not and move on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalum-arosa Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 You say you want more power why not 20v turbo it, them you got everything power, looks and maybe comfort? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piers Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I did consider a 20v before the air but its a lot more money than id like to spend on it. I have also been looking into a supercharger this last week and have been offered all the parts i need to do the supercharger except an ECU for a very good price. im really on the fence with it as iv been told supercharging can be difficult and a lot can go wrong.Not sure what to do. stuck between a rock and a hard place.

patroddy Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 i wouldnt sell it, but if your considering selling it id stop chucking money at it tbh, incase you decide to sell it, but still i wouldnt sell it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcusgrant Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Theres a chap on here who supercharged his lupo on a standard ECU i think, its a greeny colour on polished porsche winters. If i remember correctly, speaking to a few people, it wasnt that great on a standard ECU and he had problems with it. I may be wrong as this is all from conversations years ago. basically it was hard to map Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piers Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 yeah thats what worries me with it marcus. it all sounds easy and simple until you actually do it. I can imagine i would have nothing but problems with it.Im not throwing too much more at it pat.bit more paint and bodywork i want to have sorted (spend my money one something good for marcus - personal joke that dates back a while for those who dont know what im on about) and obviously the gearbox. i should be getting a price on the gearbox tonight so will have to see what the damage is on that! Got the leather interior to pay for aswell. At least with the interior, air and wheels i can get my money back (or some of it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
