been working my bollocks off at work recentley, so have a few extra £ to spend, now i could either try and finish my corsa with xe or a LET, new wheels and cage etc etc and try and make it as good as AK's etc (long shot)

or put a allared intercooler, jabbasport remap and few other bits to the lupo, which would then be running 110bhp and 196lb/ft of torque

I'd go for the route on the corsa...

doing the work on the lupo, even though it may well be reliable, will push costs of running both cars up through the roof!

Least if the lupo stays 'as-is' for now, and you work on the corsa, your gona be quids in with every-day running & should then be able to save up a few more pennies afterwards too

Your never going to make the Lupo that fast as its still only a 1.4 TDi, Yes i know your corsa is but i bet there was alot of money spunked into it to get it how it is.

jr boy boy boy!!

Finish the corsa as we spoke about, and enjoy iy. keep the lupo for everyday use.
At then end of the day1k and you will have less bhp than the 1.4 lump but huge torque figure yes!

Sort an xe with some headwork good for 170 bhp you will be more than happy with the power to weight ratio!
