UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Someone with a Lupo sport (same engine) got 136 from his, cant rmember what else he did to it though

Don't make me come over there....

Sorry Was thinking of 25 from somewhere, but just checked, 13hp increase. My bad fella
Still a substantial gain. For the money

VW Polo 9N 1.4 16V 101hp
Before:
101 hp
126 NM

After:
113 hp
140 NM

Cost: £249

Hey mate (: welcome, nice to see another 9n Sport, the 100hp ones are kinda hard to come by.
Speak to elite remaps, they're going to be doing mine, 25hp gain from the 1.4, and a shag load more torque

Yeah thanks for the part number, forgot to write it down somewhere yesterday. I'll get a quote and look at getting mine done too

Well yeah, but the bases of the bulbs usually seal fairly well.
Might be a blocked drain hole or something thinking about it though

Yeah I am man, search for Charles Kadoch

Maybe put some of that silica gel you get in shoe boxes and stuff, tape one to some string and leave it for a few days and see if that helps too, but put the cover over the string

Usually condensation is caused because the headlight isnt sealed properly.
Check the covers on the rear?

Those pedals should fit, but I THINK you need the LHD throttle pedal, heard somewhere the RHD ones don't fit properly

Work car park

Definatly dont pay!

You need a torx bit to fit them, I removed my front ones by just turning the wheels on full lock for each side. If you had a torx bit on the end of a ratchet you could do it easily (:

Chrome's a love hate things. I really don't like chrome that much, which is why my badges are black, but it works on certain cars, still looks good

Not sure on the rear boot handle in chrome, looking good otherwise, like that tax disc holder, might get one for mine, seeing as it is an actual Sport

Yeah red and blue don't really go, maybe a gunmetal or gold would work, or jsut leave the bronze, it's different

If you're only lowering it 35mm you should be okay with plastic ones anyway.
Coilies are always a safe buy though means you can get the height you want later on if you decide to go lower.
Alot of people buy springs then end up buying coilies later on

I've had a few issues iwth my mudflapps scrappy stuff, but they wont be coming off until spring at least.

Car's looking nice, the tints do look pretty good too
