Jojo_1804 Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 hey guys, i got a 1.0ltr lupo and need a bit more speed lol, i was thinking about putting a 1.4sport (100bhp) engine in it just to make it a bit more nippy. just wondering whats the cheapest and easiest engine conversion you can do to a 1.0ltr lupo??

Jojo_1804 Posted August 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Don't wanna sell it, lovely looking car spent a lot on looks and need a bit of speed, anyone else got any better ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James827 Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 *sigh* Buy a rear-ended polo gti and put that in it. you will have all you need and would be able to make money back by breaking what you don't need M'kay? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadmetal Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Seriously, sell it and buy a S or sport.The work, time, money and effort that is needed to make a car that already exists just isn't worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcusgrant Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 if you're sure you want to keep it, sport engine. with more work a polo gti engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmanncfc Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 All depends what money you've put into it as it is.If you've drastically altered the car and you've got the skills that you need to do it then it's a good idea as you can make some money back by breaking the donor car.If you haven't drastically modified it you may be better off putting your mods onto a faster lupo like a sport or a gti.As for engines you'd be best off getting a polo gti engine as its a common conversion and the engine mounts are the same.
