Which car

[brianljj]

Hi,
Please can some one help us.
We are trying to decide which is the best diesel car to buy for improving performance, We want to make a sleeper but we do not want to shovel loads of money in to it.
Thanks for any advice

Hi and welcome.

If you want a sleeper on the cheap, then a diesel turbo remapped will fit the bill. Approx 40% bhp and lb/ft increase for around £250.

Replacing large capacity boot badges with smaller ones also helps

The 2.2 HDi is a worthy contender. Swap in a hybrid turbo and remap for some serious power hikes. The VAG 2.0 TDI can be pushed to around 250bhp for about £600 - turbo and remap and is still fairly reliable.
