I don't know if it is possible on the Golf (TD is presumably the clockwork pump), but the 306 mod might give you some clues.

Video clicky (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4l5on3_IrA&feature=relmfu)

2 screws on the pump and (I think) the turbo actuator rod. No remap needed as it is all mechanical.

I think this is where the "no smoke - no poke" saying comes from - check out some Youtube vids with that in the search box. Good gains are there to be had (on the Pug anyway).
