1.7 Tuning

Buy slowest Lupo on the market, want to make it faster.

Yer, that makes sense.

isnt the 1.0 slower?

1.0 = 50hp-86nm 0-60 = 17.7 top speed 95mph.

1.7 = 60bhp- 115nm 0-60 = 16.8 top speed 98mph

A small margin id admit.

In the real world though......

yeah but you'd be surprised. i chose my 1.7 over a 1.0. much better on motorways and never struggled on a hill.

one of my friends had a 1.0 and we were gonna put them next to each other and see how much difference there was.

Unfortunalty he sold his 2 weeks before i picked mine up.

But what i find is people always complain about how sdi's are useless and stuff and probably have never driven one!

There is no 1.7tdi its an sdi. it is a 3 cylinder engine. the 1.9tdi (from the golf etc) is a 4 cylinder engine. 4-3=1 hence 1 cylinder short meaning the suggestion made of utilising 1.9tdi parts would be impractical as parts such as the inlet manifold etc are for 4 a 4 cylinder engine.

you have lost me. the 1.7 SDI is 4 cylinder. The 1.4 TDI is 3 cylinder. the difference from the 1.7SDI engine block and the 1.9 tdi is a shortened piston stroke. 1.9 TDI parts should theoretically fit onto the 1.7 SDI block. infact there heads are probably the same.

Maybe you're right, engines are not my expertise :) but really, sdi tuning is not happening
