Billious Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 I'm looking for the best upgrades to get the most from the engine . I know it's not gonna be fast but anything will be better . I'm not wanting to turbo it that's far to costly. Any advice will be welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadmetal Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Out of an SDI?As Rich said, loose as much weight as possible.SDIs are made to be fuel efficient, you're not going to get any worth while gains out of that engine without major work.

Dblock Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Remove the trumpets. Clean the injectors. Make sure your air and fuel filter are clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickpercy87 Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Thinner rear tyres and a remap. R-tech can get 9bhp from the 1.9 sdi so maybe 5bhp from the 1.7? Not worth the 250 quid tho. Get a tdi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
