Does it really spool up 1000rpm sooner? That´s a huge difference! Is it possible to see what kind of turbo I have, without removing it? They might have used different turbos here in Sweden.

Don´t know how much 18 psi is in Bar`s but I´m sure it´ll be enough for me, for starters anyway

Pump swap sounds good, can I use the pump from a 1.6 or are they different? Golf 1.6TD is the most common VW TD around here, thats why I wondered about the IP.

I found some old posts, looks like there´s nothing else to do. I should have noticed the absence of the LDA when I bought the piece of ****!
Thanks anyway, it´s OK to drive as it is but I miss the power of my old Peugeot..

But it´s not a TDI, its a 1.9 liter Turbodiesel...IDI, not TDI.

My Passat is what you call an eco-diesel (i think) without the boost enrichment devise on the IP. Is it possible to gain any power without changing the IP? Right now I have turned in the fuel screw ´til I couldn´t adjust the idle low enough and then backed it a bit. My cat is emptied. What more ca...

How is that possible, when its freezing it glows about 5sec or so. The car starts fine, both summer and winter, its just that I dont get w...
