Title: Performance options?
Post by: zenicman9 on February 21, 2012, 02:17:02 pm
Hi All

I am wondering the options I have to make my 105 tdi quicker?

I have being thinking about doing a swap for the 170? Any options?

A remap would take me to 135 but wanted more

Some much room to tune on the 105PD, an easy basic spec1 custom setup would make a nice 40bhp gain and 45lbft with out going mad.    Dont go chasing peak bhp numbers, you need to be looking for a TDI remap which offers over 40lbft over most of the torque band.

with the FMIC on these they are a really tuneable little motor, some remaps can get you a good 145+
