nfbr Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 So you're willing to spend £10,000 - £20,000 to super charge your car which is probably worth less than £3,000 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfbr Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 (edited) contrary to popular belief, Superchargers are not just a plug in/bolt on job like one of those eBay resisters! Edited February 19, 2010 by nfbr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty_82 Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 like i said money is not a problem. im pretty sure i wont have to spend that much but if i did then i would. to every body else my car may be only worth 3000 but its not for sale now and it wont ever be for sale. i have 4 cars and each is amasing in its own right. so far iv spent 9ooo on my lupo and im only a quarter way through.Can we see pics of this 9k car and the break down of the costs , considering youve done the work all yourself there shouldnt be any labour costs so that must make it pretty special.Im actually hoping this has some subtle touches and money well spent on quality items.Or is this pub/max power craic and made up numbers????

Matty. Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 If money "wasnt an issue" why are you driving a 1.4 lupo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elliecjno1 Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 (edited) Why are you lot such back biting b*tches?!He asked a question, wanted an answer, end of.There was a post about all this sh*t going on a while ago putting people off, no wonder this place gets more and more quiet, helpful bunch eh Out of all those posts, AndyP, jamiea7x & Nock are the only one given constructive info.If money "wasnt an issue" why are you driving a 1.4 lupo?Personally, if I had a 1.4 and could afford to supercharge it, would make an awesome sleeper. Better than a standard GTI. Before you all pounce on that comment - thats MY opinion, not picking an arguement.

joed05 Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 good on you ellie thats why im opting to do an ITB conversion on my sport as i like the power and insurance will be cheaper than a GTI or a car of similar power at my age (18, probably 19) anywho, back OT, best to have a look at Caspers thread on his GTI, and have a look at the tuning forums and projects, they will turn up a fairly big chunk of info.

CasperGTI Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Let's all calm down and get back on to topic.Supercharger - great sound and good power increase with using the mini charger. Lots of work involved though as with any build.Like I've said, if you want any info then drop me a pm, I don't mind asking questions.John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
