Muzzie Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Don't say it's pointless I'm not paying for it. Project funded by my mate. It's a 1 litre, 3 cylinder Fiat Ugmo (uno), 4 on the floor. It's gutless and sounds tinny. Whats the best way to make a bit more than the standard 45HP without going engine conversion and complicated.

lowlancer Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Strip the interior 100% Retro fit a turbo on there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzzie Posted June 14, 2005 Author Share Posted June 14, 2005 LOL! I said thats not too complicated Besides, all a turbo do will make it get to 110k that much quicker As for stripping the interior, theres really no point. The back seat and door cards are all that I could remove, and the back seat weighs all of 5kg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowlancer Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Get out the grinder, grind everything you don't need off boy. Good exhaust MIGHT get like 2hp. Maybe practise your porting skills? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzzie Posted June 14, 2005 Author Share Posted June 14, 2005 It's got really small wheels, so its handling is crap. But if you deflate the rears to 9PSI instead of the suggested 44, you can actually drift it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zep Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Get an uno turbo engine and strap that puppy in there. My mate has one, they go unbelievably hard for what they are. Especially when you're hitting 20psi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esky boi Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Just make up a cold air intake system with some pvc pipe, remove a couple of mufflers, side gap the plugs, maybe run higher octane and advanced timing, and give the carby a tune. Orrr.... you could just slap some 'performance' stickers down the side, they should give you approximately a '5 hp' increase. Then youll need some of those fake mags and some gauges to slap on your dash.. doesn't matter if they dont work, they guarantee about another '5-10 hp' too!

Guest Steve123 Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Engine transplant! Get a 1.6L Fiat Tipo engine. Uno 60s or 70s gearbox and mix together If you do it yourself it wont cost much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
