TDI TUNING

I'm guessing the usual advice of "keep it standard, don't wreck the thing and get something else to tune up and play with" will probably fall on deaf ears, so in that case right, found it:

From the thread "Holly cow" earlier on this month. It's probably a PD engine though - not sure how much you could extract from your one (IIRC it's a 110bhp version?).

After the 140 chip on a 110, you need larger (130) injectors, followed by a larger turbo and larger intercooler.

If you started with a 130, about 180 is the limit before requiring the same parts.

Tim..

Remember when you change the injectors you need to get it custom mapped before starting it, there have been some nasty experiences with people fitting 130 or

160 injectors.

My, that's a lot of injectors - 160 is 40 per cylinder! Where on earth would you put them all? :P

They are VERY small. The hard part is finding the 1/2 injectors needed for 130.

900bhp RST lump

C20LET

Rover V8

Supercharged PSA Mi16

RR Merlin

Pratt&Whitney J52

All are no doubt within your technical expertise.

I think you'll find the 130 was a 5-Cyl ;-)

For my .2p I would not go much further then a chip, the idea of the oil burner was to get good MPG was it not ?

surely you mean 90 bhp?

um not a hope in hell

economy

leave that for a 205

maybe it might just fit in the boot

see above

um some yes other no

its staying vag and derv :) been looking into it a bit :) have a butchers

Not in the one I had it wasn't.

Well I'm not going to explain it to you...................

The joke was that 130 divides by 5 but not by 4 without having a half or a remainder but you knew that.

Rightttttttttttttt

Sorry - but I don't normally laugh at jokes that need explaining... ;-)

Considering they come 132bhp standard, I doubt it. I've seen them 200bhp before. Not quite 900, but a quick and a f*ck off 90.

Vauxhall? Pah. Shite.

Who gives a f*ck.

I can't remember Audi making a 205 :o)

Indeed. Ignore my comments above, they are valid, but they won't help you either. It's a diesel. PDI engines are good, but gets something that's common rail.

jabbasport, everytime. if it's a PD130 you'll get a reliable 190BHP out of it with an airfilter and a jabba remap. If a PD100 then around 140BHP. check out

for the skoda enthusiast communitiy - loads of them have been running these for years without any problems at all.

ric

Not from the 130 but since Ian left Jabba's rollers have been rather "optimistic".

A mate just got his Seat Altea 105bhp 1.9tdi done, a re-map and panel filter =185bhp and 252lbf-ft, pictures availabile on request :-)

Sounds a bit optimistic for a 105 on stock injectors and turbo. Where was it run?
