Jaevans93 Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 Hi my name is Jake. I have had a Lupo 1.4s for a about a year now, has anyone got any tips to make it a bit nippier? Just little modifications as I want to learn more about the car and work on it myself, for example changing the air filter etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VolkswagenDan Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 Stop fannying around and do a 1.8T conversion. It's the right thing to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karl_Mac_ Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 Really not worth it to be fair. you have to plough serious dough into an engine swap or have the skills to do it yourself.Filter/exhaust will help a little, but your talking 5hp max. Replacing plugs/injectors will make it run a bit smoother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dblock Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 I used to have a 1.4 16v. I put a BMC on it and I doubt it added any power as induction kits pretty much never do but it sounded great and it felt like it had a little more kick. But the sound probably made it feel faster.
