Racing diesel Lupo

[drivermatt]

Greetings all.
I'm a 50 year old Brit, have previously owned a few fast motors, BMW CSL E9, Honda NSX, Jag XJR, Iso Lele. Now between fortunes and speed hill-climbing a diesel Lupo 1.4TDi that I am always looking to improve.
So far the car is running on a custom hybrid turbo, remap, jetex air filter, koni sport shocks, eibach springs, black diamond brakes, whiteline ARB, Maxsport RB5 tyres and I'm sure other stuff that I've forgotten.
All and any thoughts on how to squeeze more out of the Lupo greatly appreciated.

Hello there and may I extend to you a very warm welcome to TorqueCars forums.
It is great to meet you and I hope you enjoy the forums as much as we all do and that you get totally addicted to this site.

It sounds like you have a great project on your hands, with an impressive mod list already I bet you turn in some pretty good times.

Have you looked at the gearbox and gear ratios yet?

Do feel free to get involved in our other threads too, the more the merrier as they say and we are friendly (being friendly is actually a forum rule!)

I forgot the Wavetrack LSD which I can't recommend highly enough. Not sure that playing with the ratios is an easy option as this is also my daily driver.

Hello and welcome, you'll like it here. It sounds like youve done all you can. Can you get fast road cams on diesels? Does head work like flowing and porting help? Somehow I doubt it due to the low revving nature of the engines.
