1.9 CDTI now producing around 240bhp....prepared by DAP.
It has actually been nicknamed The Hearse too!

I would of thought a different turbo is needed to get 240bhp on a standard 150bhp engine?

DTUK Tuning Box
I'm also fitting a simota induction kit soon which should give another 10bhp.

Greenbox or CRD2....i'm running a Green. Its funny, because last time I mentioned the DTUK Tuning boxes on here I got ripped to shreds. No-one would believe the bhp gains I was quoting!

On a 1.7 CDTI right? Looking at getting a tuning box for mine sometime this year but it seems everyone and there mom makes a tuning box these days, so finding a good one is hard.
How much was yours/where did you get it? Good power increase?
