Benutzername 2 Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 (edited) "Guten Tag" from Germany!Lupo/Aorsa forums in Germany are absolutely boring! No one takes the initiative or can come up with something new. It is always the same. Every day! Booooring!So here I am now.My name is Malte, 30 years old, studied mechanical engineering and live in Berlin. I own a Lupo GTI, bought it in 2003. Since about 2004 I have constantly changed anything on the car. In the meantime, Since 2008, I use the car only to have fun on the streetor on racetracks.My Lupo is on OZ Superturismo GT and a Lupo GTI Cup coilover suspension.Since 2 years I built on my current engine. 250hp were the target and many many revs. A lot of work, time und money later, the engine started at the first time, 2 weeks ago. A few minor issues still need to be removed, then it goes on the street.So far........ but see before anything else. Questions are wellcome.

Mr.Badbrains 16 Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 I like that the redline starts at 8000 rpm in your rew counter. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Benutzername 2 Posted June 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) Yes! My rev limiter is at 9750rpm.Then I'll tell something more specific about the engine: - The itb's are from a GSXR750. The air channel is completely redesigned. 46.5 mm throttle plate with 49.5 mm airhorns. (CNC milled)- The cylinder head is also completely redesigned. In and Outlets are modified on a flowbench. The VVT holes are closed and to adjust the valve clearance, I drilled a hole for each valve. These are simply sealed with threaded plugs, after adjustment. New lubrication holes for the first two camshaft bearings in the Polo 16V valve cover without VVT.- special camshafts: 311° duration, 12,95mm valve lift and 3,5mm valve lift at TDC- valve springs with 80kg at full lift- Titan upper retainer- berylium valve guide- adjustable cam wheel- special pistons and rods- 630ccm injectors- A1000 Aeromotive fuel regulator- self-construct exhaust manifold- rest of the exhaust is from the original BTC Race Lupo- Motec M4 Pro ECU I'm sure I forgot a lot. The list of changes is pretty darn long.And now, a few more photos. Edited June 3, 2014 by Benutzername Quote Link to post Share on other sites
