if the turbo isnt really picking up very well then its the common prob on the gt dti 110. they use vairiable vane turbo's and the variable vane plate gets all coked up and basically reduces the efficency and performance of the turbo. i had this issue on my octavia tdi 110, you can strip the turbo down and clean it all up. iosnt the easiest job though.
