@Martyntdci, it is possible the only problem you will have is a bit more lag as the turbo is actually a tiny bit bigger

Anything for the 1.6TDCi as a direct replacment?

I'm officially a Technical Integration Engineer for an industrial computer company, but we are only a small team so the work is quite varied. I was taken on to build bespoke industrial, commercial and rackmount computers, and also provide technical support to customers, but I'll also do order processing, sales on certain products, while also managing our office network, workstations and server.

More power please,
I dont have much lag since the remap, and would probably require 110cc injectors and bigger intercooler too but would be interesting to see how much for an upgrade and if one is available.
Sorry to be off topic guys.

Lenny possibilities for a turbo would be the Garrett GT1548 Which has a displacement of between 1.0ltr to 1.6ltr and horsepower between 100-200 or also the Garrett GT2052 which has a displacement of 1.4ltr to 2.0ltr and horsepower between 140-230.

The current turvo in your 1.6TDCi is the Garrett 1544V.

Hope this helps :)
