With Dad's TDI it made such a difference that the muffler shop gave a serious warning about someone getting hurt if they weren't careful, and he didn't even have time to drive the car! It did almost as much as going from stage 1 to stage 2! Boost is so quick that it goes into limp mode after the engine warms up; overboost situation. Limp mode now has more power than the car did stock!

I can relate to the larger exhaust. I noticed a huge difference on my 1.6 TD
hen I installed a 2.5" exhaust from the turbo back. Boost was always around 8
si before I installed the larger exhaust and then it went up to 12 psi after
he install. Noticeably way more power after as well as turbo spool up faster.

Big exhaust, don't forget a big exhaust! For a 1.6 TD, minium is 2.5" and I'd
ay a 1.9 should have 3". Jake had a 2" on his TD and thought I was nuts for
aying he needed a 2.5. He did it and was amazed at the difference it made with
lready having a larger than stock exhaust.
Of course there's the tweaking of getting the correct total fueling compared to
ow speed, speed of enrichment and how much over a no-boost condition. There
re a lot of claims about timing settings but personally I've not found it to do
uch other than shift the torque up or down, depending on the speed you
outinely run the engine. Even then it's not something I tend to waver much
rom stock, or factory recommended "performance" settings, depending on the
ump.
You could always pull the head and port it, install Total Seal rings, etc. :-)

he following in order will make a very effective increase in max power and et
re very conservative settings and will not over-tax the exngine, IMO, ven
onsidering it is in a very heavy anti-aerodynamic box. Add an uxiliary oil to
ir cooler. Add an effective intercooler. Increase max oost to 15 psi. Get an
ppropriate boost enrichment aneroid on your AAZ njection pump. Add an EGT
auge. Increase max fuel to 1250°F pre-turbine.
