2.0tdi 140 hp Golf 4motion

[shtrumf2k]

Hello everyone

i'm new to the forum and as far as i see people here really know what they r talking about

i own a Golf v 2.0 tdi 140 hp 4motion and i wanted some ideas to increase the power, i have a remap but it's not enough

i really need your help becouse i live in Romania and here people are more into sti's, evo's and 1.8T so tuning diesel's is not very common

thanks a lot

cheers

Have search for a bloke called devonmikeyboy..

He's got the Audi 140tdi which has now got 213bhp at the wheels and 250 at the flywhell with more to come...

HTH

yeah shame you wouldnt be able to pop over to allards though like mikey did. bit of a long journey

Your probably looking at changing the turbo to start with...

 

[shtrumf2k]

yes, that is exactly what i want and i think i can order from them but i want to know what to order, like what kind of turbo and other parts i need

my plan is to have around 200 hp but safe...

 

[sssstew]

give them a call and discuss it, they are v helpful and will be the best people to advise.

 

[Sisson]

The allard VT2 turbo will give you an easy 200bhp i should think...

Edit:Click here for Turbo's

 

[shtrumf2k]

thx i'll check it out

 

[shtrumf2k]

do you know if milltek or some other exhaust producer makes a turbo-back exhaust for my car
i mean for the FWD golf 2.0 tdi millltek has one, but i dont know if it's the same for 4motion

thank you

if you have any suggestions, are more than welcome

 

[Sisson]

Your best bet is to get in touch with Milltek...

Well how deep are your pockets?? look up devonmikeboy threads (especially TDI tuning) on this web site he runs a Audi A3 Sline q4 2.0tdi I'm sure he will assist where he can
sorry this has been mention before - grey cells depleating fast. .............

The standard intercooler is plenty big enough for 220-230 bhp. All you need to change is the airfilter,exhaust,downpipe and turbo plus of coarse get a remap. You will probably also need an uprated clutch at some stage. It all comes down to how much money you can or want to spend at the end of the day.

 

[shtrumf2k]

thx for the reply

i don't want more than 220-230 hp becouse i want tha car to be reliable, it's my daily drive and the only car i have

Did you use BMC-CDA airfilter? this is really that good?

 

[timbotdi]

Yeah, I'm sure Mike'd recommend it as highly as I do - same as used by Allard on their race cars - the sound is fappin' awesome!

Yep the BMC airfilter is the best money can buy. My Audi is my daily drive as well same as my Cupra was before. The 2.0 pd engine can cope with 250-260 bhp no problems if you fit a VT5 and as you have a 4motion do not need to worry about traction problems.

 

[snifta]

i think enclosed filters are the best, anything which is open to hot air is pointless on force induction cars

 

[shtrumf2k]

that's good to know...i'll order one asap
i was thinking to put a VT3 in my car ..but do i need a new mainfold?

 

[timbotdi]

There is little point in going for a VT3 - you will get almost identical power outputs to a VT2, but as you correctly state, you'll have to buy a new exhaust manifold. From memory they're around £300+fitting...

[shtrumf2k]

so i should buy a VT2?

 

[timbotdi]

That would be my recommendation - I won't be wanting anymore power out of mine for sometime yet, and I drive 60 miles a day minimum with no issues so far...
