1.4 TDI tuning

[sharif_16v]

Hi guys,

I've been driving the 1.4 TDI's now for roughly a year, and as much as I want to change my car to a faster one, being 18, insurance isn't really friendly. So i'm planning on keeping my Polo until it dies lol, and was wondering what are ideal ways of getting more power out of it. I have been looking into remaps, planning on getting one in the next few months just saving for one. I have heard of people changing the injectors to PD 100/150 injectors. What else could I do to get more power out of it? I am a bit of a noob when it comes to engine tuning so don't know much. I'd like to keep the costs down as being a student but just wanted to know what methods I could use to get more power out of it, without spending loads.

Cheers

I'm still debating on what to do with mine, but I may just keep it how it is for another 2 years till I have my full NCB and get a more "grown up" car...

Expect your insurance to sky rocket though at that age, even with a stage 1 remap.

Thanks for those links mate, I'm hoping insurance will be ok as i'm 19 soon and have 1 years no claims. I'll get quotes before I do anything though.

forever then?

just get a remap, pd160 intake, panel filter and de-cat exhaust. that'll see 110/115 bhp any more from a 1.4 is cruel on the poor thing

Lool, knowing my luck a few years lol. I was looking into a full exhaust system, Style Dynamix quoted me £800 something I cannot afford lol. Will look into the other things you said though

exhausts are easy i got a universal one off ebay. £50 ish and then had it fitted. goo for a remap power is amazing i remapped my 1.9tdi and it flies, morebhp in the mark7 section did mine gud price and good map give him a msg.
