going from non turbo diesel to TDi

[Grim_Reaper]

right, ive had enough of not having any boost on my non turbo diesel engine...i hate it  its nippy enough, BUT boost is for winners 

question time...AFAIK i just need to change the whole complete engine, exhaust DP and ECU, everything else is the same such as the fuel pump and filter...

anyone have anything to add to this before i end up having another screw up on my hands???

Why not pick up a mk2 turbo diesel lump, would be a lot easier.

i want a mk3 tdi90...from another mk3

and im not asking to bolt a turbo to my engine, im looking to swap the complete thing and bin the one in there right now...

sign upto vag-cat.com and it will give all the parts options for all engine codes (just remember the uk only got upto 90bhp tdi's)

[Grim_Reaper]

90 bhp is still better than friggin 40 :doh:

why do i have to go to another forum??? gah, im just gonna give it a bash...be sure to keep an eye for a thread of me ranting about how it doesnt work and i made it worse because i attacked everything with a large hammer!

[boneybradley]

its the catalogue info you want...i put the link as there's a few different engine codes for the tdi's and i'm unsure if the parts are the same?

Everything on a TDI is different to yours, I would think your better bet is to find a doner car.

Might be your best bet.

i know what you mean, its always best to have a complete doner car (mmm doner bugger!!!)...i was hoping i get away with just the engine and loom/ecu oh well, thanks for the gen wayne :-D
