As mentioned elsewhere I'm after changing my old Tolley 110BHP for a VW/Audi/Seat based on the A3 platform with a CR TDI.
I've tried 2litre PD in 143BHP but found no torque below 2000RPM.
Has anyone experience of the 1.6 CR at 105BHP ? Although this is 5bhp less than my Tolley the torque is more and comes in at 1500RPM.
Is this engine based on the 2litre block do you know ? Is there any loss in strength or durability ? Smaller bearings etc. Is it tuned to get 105BHP from 1.6 engine? (bearing in mimd the ethos of this engine is emissions and fuel economy)
Is it easy or wise to try and get 140BHP from it? (bearing in mind the loading due to the extra torque)
Does it have a DPF ?
Can you disable the 'Stop/Start' ?
Thanks
Paul
