Tuning 130hp TDI

[pablo]

Having just dropped from a 260bhp petrol alfa to the 130bhp A4 Im craving more power. A remap is on the cards asap but wondered was there anything I could do preremap to up the stakes a little?

Any info appreciated

cheers

Not a lot of point doing anything else for performance gains, just get it remapped!

just thought Id ask

Need to get it remapped asap, my wifes golf 130 drives away from me

The best way is a better turbo.
You will leave the golf for dead.

A new MAF sensor may be needed if it hasn't been replaced in a while.

interesting

Would the turbo from a 150PD be a good upgrade?

I have been looking around that site and there seems to be lots of options for the 130TDi !!

I notice that if you have the PD150 (Golf) you do not need to buy a new intercooler for there Phase 3 and 4 upgrades but you do if you have a PD130.

Has anyone fitted the 150PD intercooler?? does it make a power differnece?

 

[samuelt]

good plan Pablo seems we are on the same path

Are there any engine or exhaust mods required on the VT2 to keep the 130 engine reliable or will there be a lot of smoke at some stage?

Going from an Alfa to an Audi is going up in the world

the alfa (156 GTA) was one of the finest fwd cars Ive ever driven mate, just VERY thirsty and not much room in it

you are better checking out this page : -

as these are the kit prices as you will require other parts than just the turbo.

 

[A44NI]

Yes that looks more realistic. Lots of power, reliablity and an empty wallet/bank account...

I've my 130pd mapped to 190bhp and have no bother with the clutch n flywheel, planning on putting a miltek exhaust on her too and maybe down the line upgrade the turbo and intercooler.
There's a 150pd golf here with an upgraded turbo n intercooler and she's sitting @ 245bhp after a custom remap.
