I have 1.6 tdci 90hp engine
we are going to talk here what we really need for a good upgrade for this engine to reach 150hp as a goal.
first question: should I put less HP as the goal or the engine can take?
Exhaust:
I have no intention to pass the 150hp so 57mm(2-1/4") internal diameter is more than ok? or sould I go for 64mm(2-1/2")? (think in the weight as well)
are the 110hp injectors really the same or are they different? to do 150hp are they ok?
do I need another fuel pump? or common rail pump?
if I compare the size of the IC with ones on ebay this one should be ok for 150hp. or not? I know the material is probably different but those can do until 350hp so...
the Turbo in the 110hp is the GT1544v so is a VGT what is an advantage. If I was going to use the same I would be using the turbo on the limit what is a big risk. so I was thinking that I could use the GT1548v. The problem is because my car don't come with VGT I would have to do some changes. so I'm open to suggestions ![]()
I wil need to put a EBC to help the turbo
Is the De-cat the same that you use for petrol or is different size? because I only find for Petrol on ebay.
last thing if anyone have prices for these upgrades I would be happy if mention.
P.S.- allways think Bigger size = more weight
