I have a Lupo which I'm building (well, the build has been on going since May 2005 ) and I had a 6N2 GTI while my Lupo was off the road.

Come across a 6N 1.8 20v Turbo built by Dubsport back in 2005 for sale and managed to do a deal with the owner and did the trade.

The engine has been recently replaced with a 25k mile APP engine, it has a Cupra R intake, 225 throttle body and injectors and a K03S Turbo boosting to 0.7bar.

Emerald stand alone management takes car of the fueling :)

Neither myself or the previous owner have put the car on the rollers so I have no idea on the power, but its fast enough to embarrass some pretty brisk cars but not that fast that the handling is compromised.

The car is booked into the body shop on the 22nd to get the front end and mirrors painted, need to get hold of a standard 6N6N tail gate and a 16v rear bumper before the rear end gets done.

It came with a 6N2 tailgate with boot popper, I swapped this over for a smoothed 6N tailgate that came with it, but I want to put it back to standard.

Tempted with some 6N2 rear lamps though.

The rear beam has 6N2 GTI discs and pads, while the front is taken care of with some 280s.

Had to replace the discs and fluid as they were shot, check out the

to see why! lol

Not sure what to do with the wheels, I love these rims, have a set freshly refurbished ready for the summer, but I'm tempted with some 7.5x15s just to fill the arches a little more.

Engine wise, all it needs is a better air filter, and a 'cold side' dump valve as the standard crappy plastic one needs to go!

Gonna get switchable map installed though, as fuel consumption is pretty poor to say the least.

Every day use doesn't need anymore than 150 hp IMO.

Put some audio in this weekend, although I'm not sure if I should take it back out again.

Nice to have some good sounds again, but the weight.. lol

The car comes out of the body shop tomorrow, hoping to have it right before Santa Pod!

My 'old' Polo

My Lupo the day it left my drive last!

Saw this on club lupo

I want to see it on the track!

I need a turbo in my life :(

Tell me about it, I have two Lupos, a C3 and the Polo... I can't justify keeping the Polo next year but I can't live without this speed in my life!

I'll be at Santa Pod!

My old 20vT polo was done by dubsport in 05 too :-)

Loving the shakes

Orange has gone!

Panda, I would love to get my engine looking that good.

Give me till edition.

I'm just trying to get it ready for Santa Pod.

You gonna be racing?

Walshc, I showed your car to my missus.

Told her your story, glad you are OK.

Dubsport did a great job on this car, how was your conversion?

Did you buy it completed, or did you get it done?

What is that filter you had?

Do you have a link to a 'readers rides' thread?

Just put some new plugs in today, BIG difference.

that's gonna surprise a few unsuspecting folk

Thats the plan mate!

Cant wait for Santa Pod!

dame i want one of thoughts

Yeah, mate I can't live without this sort of speed in my life!

I'm really liking that, stealthy I hope you've taken all that wood crap out of the boot though :)

I will do before 'Pod.

But its still very nippy, and I like my music :)

Once my Lupo is done, I will turn this into a road legal track car!

Keep me informed how you get on.

What's the plans?

What Turbo?

Power?

i'm just going to be sorting out the bodywork and adding a bigger fuel pump so I can map it up a little higher and possibly see around 280bhp.

Whats the spec of it so far?

Cheers dude :-)

I got it done there, it was faultless, top work. I think it was Jeff who did it????

The filter was Jetex AFAIK, it came with the exhaust, which was a Jetex system anyway

I dont think any of my threads are still alive for it either

Post some up in here then dude!

Let me take a look

From Santa Pod this weekend

In total between myself and my mate the little car managed 38 runs up the strip with no problems at all.

My best was 14.33, but my friend managed a 14.08 in it!
