And before you ask, it isnt worthwhile trying to get the 75bhp to 100bhp. Both engines are 1.4 with 16 valves. However the 100bhp version is branded the "16V" or the "Sport" and has a centre exit exhaust.Hope it helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jabbles21 Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 The sport model has 2 16v badges, one on the grill and one on the tailgate. They each give 12.5 bhp gains EACH! You do the maths Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkStryder360 Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 Just paint it red and whack on some racing stripes. That doubles the Bhp and Top Speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEP51 Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 yeah funny i was looking for serious answersI gave u a serios answer . If u have a 75bhp, no point whatsoever trying to make it 100bhp, costs a fortune, too much work, insurance rockets and it is better value to just buy a sport.

smitty12 Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 I asked the question when i first got my Lupo and got about the same amount of sarcasm lolMy mates got a sport and i dont think its even worth trying to get that extra 25bh, the power from the sport isnt anything worth shouting about to be honest.I'll be re-routing the air intake, sticking a PiperX pannel filter in and possibly getting a custom made stainless exhaust (only an idea at the moment thou). I cant see there being much power to gain without spending a fair bit. High lift Cams would do a nice job Its just what performance/price your happy with! My car was cheap as chips so i'll be spending a fair bit to get it to the standard i want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
