I drive a Bora with a 100 hp PD (ATD) engine. Since I felt the power was insufficient, I had it tuned up to 130 hp. However, that still isn't enough for me. Now I'm considering a complete engine swap. Which PD motor will fit in my vehicle without causing any major problems?

Could it be more cost-effective to simply buy a car with a V6 TDI engine from the start, rather than modifying your current car? If you want to feel real acceleration, I would recommend a Hayabusa or a jet fighter icon_wink.gif).

Yes, no, it's obvious. Thank you for the informative answer.

Yes, what can one say about that?

"130 horsepower isn't enough for you, I think. The largest engine that will fit is the 150 horsepower TDI, but you'll have to find one, and a lot of the surrounding components will be different compared to your 100 horsepower engine. It's going to be quite expensive, and you'll only get 20 more horsepower." Okay, so you're going to get him chipped...
However, considering the circumstances, I would also advise you to consider a different car, as yours doesn't seem to be very old. The money you have to spend on the conversion could also be used to buy a used car with 150 horsepower.
If that's still not enough, which I suspect is the case based on your text, I would switch to a gasoline-powered car.
