power upgrades for 2.0 ltr TDI suggestions

if you've got a DPF then DPF delete is meant to give you 25bhp - don't hold me to that, i read that in passing and i don't own a derv so i don't have a clue about tuning it!
 
If your only in swindon then get a remap from southwestincartech mark did mine and has completley transformed the car, he's about 5 mins from m4 junction 18 so not far from you atall mate charges about £280 uses celtic tuning software if you wanna have a look at figures :)
 
Yeah diagnostics all run before, he won't map them unless there running ok, dyno before & after etc Mark's a top bloke. I had the boost hoses and diverter valve changed for Forge models while I was there and added a k&n panel filter. The car had good service including plugs all done just before aswell, that way I could be sure it was running optimum before the map. Mark has also done some retrofits for me since, does vagcom stuff to :)
 
Yeah, but you go opposite way towards stroud, take first left (just after the main roundabout) keep following road and youll see cotswold spring water on your left its on that site :)
 
Replied to PM mate, map was £280 all in iirc
 
What engine are you talking about and how much are you willing to spend.
 
Hybrid turbo, Performance Backbox, and Custom Map to take advantage of Hybrid. Delete the EGR, even if you just get it mapped out (if you can't afford EGR delete pipe) and then disconnect it, clean it out as well tho as it get full of crap.

But am sure devonmikeyboy will give you a very big list todo....
 
So do induction kits do anything on these cars? They are pretty much shunned in the world of Honda and BMW as people who fitted them found performance was actually worse due to heat soak. Is this not the case with the Audi 2.0tdi?
 
will give you about 2 bhp ( did when we tested it on a dyno with a KnN cone filter ) gives a nice dump when you let go of the throttle thats about it really
 
Sorry my bad. £1000 don`t get you very far when tuning a car.
 
For a grand go for map, full exhaust, egr delete and induction kit. Then when you got some more monies your good for hybrid turbo, intercooler, clutch kit and a new remap. After this injector nozzles, conrods and water/methanol depending on egts and then again a new map. All this will cost you around 5grand and will get you 280-290hp. To get more than this you will need a totally different turbo, manifolds and ported head. So at the moment im half way there lol

it's not that easy surely. you'd need to spend money on brakes and suspension as well if you were going all out so more than £5k :p
 
Ye i didnt mention handling upgrades. You will defo need bigger brakes, s3 345mm are perfect. But if you just want to go fast in a straight line no need to go all out on handling :p

in a diesel you're not gonna be going fast anywhere :ninja:

(i'm done trolling now - had to get it out of my system, sorry lol)

I bet i would be faster than a stock 2.0tfsi a3 :p guess you dont know diesel potential. See audi's v12 tdi and how many seasons of le mans its come top in. Am not sayin its the fastest thing in the world but sure wipes alot of smiles

at least us diesel drivers can pass a petrol station without worry, rather than stopping at every one :p
 
cheers guys for the help, sounds like some serious saving needs done! nav you said about a full exhaust is there any real point in a derv? oh as for the modding a tractor surely we save more money as we dont have to stop every garage to fill up so we save more money for the next mod:whistle2::think:
 
Depending on how far you want to go with the modding. Best get a cat-back exhaust for now and if you go far as a hybrid turbo then you can get a downpipe+decat pipe.
 
I Got 182 bhp and 303 lb/ft out of my 140 which was originally 146 and 243 lb/ft, Im thinking cat back exhaust and forge pipes next, Anyone ooop norf near leeds recommend a decent exhaust dealer?

Fr&rtuning are in bradford and do milltek exhausts
 
My advice would be leave it well alone mate, you'll only run into money if something goes wrong! Re-maps have a awful habit of bringing out under lying problems with turbo's, flywheels etc
 
Egr - exhaust gas recirc. So deleting this stops hot exhaust gases full off soot from entering the manifold and engine. Its there to reduced NO exhaust gasses. when you remove your egr valve and manifold you will see it caked in soot. When i did mine it was atleast half a cm thick! So the theory is deleting this gives better mpg and help engine run better (some say gives you more power). Its a good mod to do :)

So just a thought then - why do you think it's there in the first place ?
 
to lower emissions give you cheaper tax and make you buy more of there cars :D
