ever though about a turbo. That engine is renowned for responding really well to them. Because it's a diesel, they love turbos, just fit a front mount intercooler off a jap import petrol turbo and it would go great.

nice little golf mate.

some people are like slinky's
they have no useful purpose
but they are fun to watch
when you push them down the stairs

think about a turbo all the time ;-)

apparently its not a great idea with the 1500 engine 'cos the turbo models have xtra oil jets, and a stronger head. however, i've often thought it would go a fair bit better just running a turbo at low psi with an intercooler and not put too much pressure on the engine.....

a more permanent and fun mod would be a 1.9 tdi swap...if anyone ever finds a rear-ended written off new diesel golf, tell me😎
