2003 Passat TDI SE 100 (the baby one)

I know its just my daily driver but I spend a lot of time in it and its the slowest fucking car ive ever had by a long shot

Slow to the point of the fact you can nearly die when joining a dual carriage way

Revo remaps to 145bhp 225lb/ft wow earth shattering but got to be a noticeable difference to what it is now.

Any other worthwhile mods? Air box/breathing mods? Swapping Turbos from the rest of the PD range? IC etc?

Cheapskate mods tbh

Thanks.

A remap should be more than enough to keep you happy with it.

What about a turbo from a PD115 or 130? can be had for bugger all money.

would it need bigger injectors/IC?

To be honest decat etc just make it run slightly better. If it's a pd100 just get a 130 turbo and a map. I got a garrett pd130 for like 160£ and it supposdly had done 23k, ran like it had though so no reason to believe otherwise

I'd just buy a better diesel if you are looking into anything more than a remap

Strip it out. Less weight, lighter car, more mpg.
