2.0L 16v supercharged Lupo

Update Update i keep telling myself. Where does the Lupo stand at this moment? I am at a crossroads as to what happens now. As time has moved on my Son and my car buddies (i will just say Vw Enterprise) has opened my eyes and i have come to the conclusion i want some of this need for speed adrenalin. I will be glued to this computer tomorrow to update where I've got to. Till then have a good evening Club Gti members.

 

ROLL ON THE UPDATES!

 

Can't wait Hakeem!

 

Where did you send the driveshafts? And where are the updates!

 

Berrisford Chassis & Components. Will get round to the updates over the christmas break when i can chill take photo's and organise in order

 

Hope all you guys and girls had a great Christmas and got all the presents you needed to keep the car/car build going. Well overdue photo of the bespoke driveshafts in the flesh.. While waiting for these to turn up I started to put some items up for sale as the direction I was heading was changing quicker than I could sell. Short story is my boy sold up all his Mk1 16vt 4x4 setup got himself a Raylle and is going all out multivalve 6 cylinder Turbo. So i purchased this. to go with this .Yes supercharging has gone straight out the window but it has left me with some user friendly parts. I have been screaming for space in the car now I will have it. I got myself a bespoke radiator with 70mm core compact and upto the job in hand. To assist with intake air temps I have gone for charge cooling by PWR barrel coolers. And to help get power to the road I got myself a Audi A3 Fsi 6 cog box with diff. Work will commence once engine build has been completed. Have a good evening all

 

Standard of work and parts just gets better and better, await further progression eagerly!

 

Just a quick one before the money run's out lol. Engine back from machine shop.. Well happy with the workmanship.Intermediate shaft was put on a strict diet and then balanced to within a inch of it's life.. Pistons and rods also got a full check up and we're paired and numbered.. A few bits to get and engine work can commence.

Nice work! What sump are you using? Schrick?

 

No that’s an Oettinger sump

 

Do you have any more info on the Oettinger engines? Finding any info is hard work!

 

Really good thread and top work so far!.

I'm on with a long slow burning restoration / buld as well.

Interested you've bought a PWR charge cooler, I have one of these on the shelf along with pump etc but just can't decide between that and a "normal" air to air setup?.

Think you need a decent water tank (at least 4 to 6 litres) to get resonable system performance.

 

Can I ask where you got the turbo manifold from please
