They won't fit the Lupo! The lupo specific ones are well worth the new pric e though as the make the car corner much much better! You will prob need poly bushes as well as a lot of people after a few 1000 miles have problems with the top mounts if left standard! If you do fit coilovers atch what ...

there are a few, can't remember who they all are, probably the best would be advanced autosport technologies but they are as slow as feck but have the bonus that they bring all the best kit in from Germany. Won't be cheap!

I've got a Powerflow de-cat on my Lupo GTi and I asked them to make it quiet as possible but is still quite a bit louder than standard, specially when you press the loud pedal excessively. A lot of people slag the quality of the Powerflow systems but this is the second one I've put on a car and I've ...

I've got a 04 plate STi at the moment and a few years back I had a UK spec turbo, the power and rapidity will be considerably more than your Polo as you probably realise but they cost an absolute fortune to run(tyres/petrol/brakes/insurance etcetc) especially if you drive them how they were meant to ...

http://www.designadubs.com/conversion.html

This company'll do it for you for 6 grand, but thats just the conversion, you'll need the brakes done, coilovers etcetc so I'd budget a few more grand as well!

It would be cool though as its a very tunable engine! :twisted:

I usually go out in Largs as saltcoats/kilwinning is just full of teeny boppers, you'll get a better atmosphere in Largs with most people being in their 20s or early 30s! Haven't been to the Metro in like 8 years its a s**t!

Went on a coroporate tour of Ibrox a few months back and it was ace! 8)

@4paws as far as I know all the Lupo GTi's are like that as we have a different engine cover(I've chucked it away) that covers the entire top of the engine unlike the Polo GTi one(correct me if I'm talking poo) only covers a portion of the engine! Sent dastek an email asking if they can offer ...

Try www.scottsmototune.co.uk they offer a remap , I bought a second ECU for my car so I could send it top them as they are so far away but I have yet to get round to it, its listed for the 1.6 16v lupo and not the POlo but as its the same engine I'm assuming they could do it!
