Abertawe1970 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 I'm looking to upgrade my 2.7 TDI S line's horse power, which is the best way to achieve this for around 1k? Currently it is 190bhp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Welcome to the forum :) I would say a good induction kit, stainless exhaust and ecru remap :) Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan3222 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 A grand is a good budget to work with actually. Mr Q is definately right about the remap, you should get 230-250 BHP quite easily with standard turbo but the IC would need upgrading too. I believe the turbo would then become your first limiting factor. I am not sure when you would need to upgrade injectors on this engine. Personally I don't think you need to upgrade the exhaust unless you want to go way past 300bhp. Speak with a local Pendle agent http://www.pendleperformance.com/agents.php ( link for finding your nearest one. They are really good with VAG software. Dont muck about with performance air filters, they are a bit of a con. Give your car a good service, fresh fuel air and oil filters OEM!! And an oil change. Then get it remapped. And a new IC if wanting to go over 230bhp. A bloke got his 3.0 TDI to over 400bhp, so there is great scope for these V6's. :D 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan3222 Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Final suggestion from me, if you have a DPF delete I would opt for a dummy box and insist on keeping the old one. If the proposed changes to the emissions test for MOT does come in, you may need to refit it to pass!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
