few questions about cupra tdi 150

[louma84]

hello all been a member on here for awhile now after deciding i wanted a leon cupra tdi 150. Finally bought an 04 plate one yesturday with 117k on the clock, 1 woman owner and fsh

Now just afew questions as im not too familar with tdi's

1. Looking to get a remap done, now do i have to go to a seat/vw tuner and get it set up on the rollers or can i buy one of those 'plug in and play' chip from say tdi-tuning.co.uk ?

2. what oil do you reccomend for my car? i know its vw 505.01 but any particular brand?

3. if im looking to get a bigger turbo is there another turbo i can use on mine from another tdi?

many thanks louma84

I would get a proper remap on the rollers as plug in aren't very good ad you want to cap the torque under 300lbs/ft to save the clutch.

Oil just use a decent brand

From what I can gather its hybrid the original turbo to go more power along with supporting mods

hi mate thats for the help

do you know any decent tuners in the south that dont cost a bomb?

I was wondering if i could get away with a slightly larger turbo off a different car rather than a hybrid , as i know they cost a hell of alot of £££. where if i can find a tdi breaking i could probably pick up a turbo for afew hundred quid heard a gt2260v off a bmw diesel will fit??

I don't know the answer to either tbh but there are plenty on here that will do! Where abouts in the south are you?
