I want to know the differences in engines..
Now i cant afford a 130 or 150 bhp model so what would i need to do to a 115 bhp to make it the same as the 150bhp engine.
Obviosily a remap is a good start but what can i do after that. Id be aiming for 200 horses.
Cheers Kus

Turbo
Intercooler
Injectors?
Not sure if you need a new ECU and MAF too :undecided:
In all honesty, what you'd spend tuning and insuring the 115bhp you just as well buy the 150 model as all you'd need is a remap to push it past 190bhp

Its the outright money the 150 brake cost though stupid prices! :undecided:

Agreed but like I said when you factor in costs of bits and insurance its nigh on the same :sad:
-
so i think il just get a 115 and remap it then turn the boost up to full ?? lol

Better to start with a 130 tbh. :smiley:

Cant afford one of them what about a 110 bhp then buy a 150bhp engine? Are the engines expensive?

By the time you have spent that much you would be better to buy a 150
-
And youd still have to insure it as a 150.....
Basically just buy a 150 to save hassle as either way its going to cost the same!
-
No i wouldnt insurance it as a 150
-
a complete engine is going to cost you £800+ add that to the purchase price of the car and its not worth it
No i wouldnt insurance it as a 150
if you cant afford to insure it you shouldnt be driving it
-
i love it when people state on the web they are illegal and love to piss other people off who declare all mods etc
-
Boils my piss as if he smashes into me then his insurance wont pay out if somehow they found out.......
Morons making insurance expensive :angry:

lol and cant afford it don't get it thats why i am in the 90bhp because the insurance raped me after my crash with the TDi i wanted {the 130} so if you cant afford to pay it don't get it. SIMPLEs

Get a 115, i was looking for a 130 but they were silly money, got my 115 for £2500, got a remapand some other bits to help and now it will piss all over a stock 150 tdi. :evil:
Insurance is a fair bit cheaper aswell for me on a 115 than a 150. I've declared all my mods and i'm paying £620 fully comp, thats 3 years no claims, and 3 points :angry:

and my remapped 150 would use your car to wipe the soot off my rear window :evil: :evil: :evil:

Have any of you done a catch tank mod on your tdi's?

Bought two and sold them both without ever fitting them :laugh:

I made a rough one for £2.00 to see if its actually worth buying one and my conclusion is no. My car isnt sending anything through into the container :grin:

Mine don't pop off anymore but i do blow the occasional hole in them lol

:grin: :grin: :grin:
thats what happened to my last one after I screwed the pipes together... :lipsrsealed:
-
how do the clutches cope on a 150 remapped?
-
Mines done around 70k since remap and 144k total on the original clutch. The clutch is fine but the flywheel has started knocking :lipsrsealed:
-
Thats impressive! Would you say you were enthusiastic with the right pedal? I was gonna change the clutch first but might just get it remapped then
-
get it remapped and change clutch when it needs changing.. you never know it might last for years then you saved money or it might go quickly then your more out of pocket your choice lol
-
I dont hang around... :evil:
Get it mapped first then worry about the clutch. Your more than likely blow a intercooler pipe first :lipsrsealed:
-
I havent yet :drool:
-
not driving it properly then.. :tongue:
-
lol I need to check ym boost hoses.. steve you have PM
