yup! about 75kws

Oettinger takes it to about 103kws and 300 (something) Nm

my chips about 96kw's and 300nm's all from just fuel... I love it!

130hp is 103kws i think.... 140hp is about 110kws i thinks, someone check a converter!

but 110kw's should be easily achievable with the flash, exhaust, FMIC

You need to remember the HP / KW wins bar racing and dyno contests, and makes for a fast car for sure, but it's NM that makes a car FUN to drive. Diesels usually don't get a lot more HP, but a wack of NM and that's what counts. I had to adjust my thinking too.

Golfie if you check the polo intercooler thread, Jon and I are going to do some tinkering on his Polo sidemount intercooler, and anything we find will apply to the TDI version even more so.

[polo_spec_d]

yeah about 315Nm which sould make it quite fun oh i wont be going any chrome tips, Gunna have it hidden Ill be reading more of you thread about the sidemount aswell cogdoc

Yeah right on the money there Golfman for the conversion.

chop it right out!

dont run a muffler at all, just a resenator will do you just fine

OP - most of what has been mentioned so far in this thread has already beend discussed at length in other threads in the diesels section - look deeper into this section and you'll find a couple of "build threads" and some other threads on diesel exhausts.

oops sorry, bit lazy on my part

[Greg Roles]

It's a jeep thing...

no worries - just saves you some time in the end - its easier to find old threads than wait for good responses

to josh, and polo_spec_d, and anyone else in the know- how many nm are the clutches in our polo tdi's rated to?

i simply ask because on the club, basic stage 1 mods seem to be (in one package, before uprating turbo to gt17XX):

-nozzles
-remap
-clutch

and uprated smic or other oem fmic come with bigger turbo, another remap, etc etc.

how long you guys give our clutches at 315-325nm?

and in terms of remaps, apparently the KP39 in the golf 4 diesel is slightly smaller than the vnt15's in ours- but one guy on the club had a rocketchip stage one tune done, and was told not to play ALL the time, as he was near the limits of how much boost the turbo could take- would oettinger do the same to the vnt 15 as a similar tune to a slightly smaller turbo? or are we fine?

thoughts guys!!!

cheers....
scott
p.s. please correct me here if im wrong, as i also read somewhere that the polo tdi has a KKK turbo and not a garrett...

[peedman]

I thought all the VNT turbos were garrett??

[Buller_Scott]

so did i, but i also saw a list stating that the 100ps 1.9 pd engine in the >2005 polo was a KKK turbo.

i really should take these websites' urls down...

[polo_spec_d]

Well im going to 320Nm next week and a new clutch will be on the cards not long after that due to the amount of kms I rack up.

I have read that our clutches are good for 420nm!!!! But im abit suss about that so if someone has a back up figure to that?

I would think we should be fine with the remap, is the PD130 running a larger turbo or same one as PD100?

Sorry Scott to answer your question with another question.
