That engine doesn't seem to have as much potential.
I'm wanting 200/250 BHP.
1.8t
Isn't the 1.8 T a petrol & higher insurance group?
I want a Derv for fuel economy also.
Audi's are nice, but the Cost isn't so nice.
I think a PD130 into a MK5 Golf is my only option
someone around here has a pd100 (which i could only presume to be the same engine as the 105 golf) and it now has 174hp! must be some potential there. best off looking at some golf forums i reckon.
i agree with the seats not being as well built as vw but what do you actually want out of the car ? cheap insurance , well built not a sporty hot hatch , cheap to run , cheap to buy , and stupidly fast

I might have to create it! haha.
Will have to findout if Its possible to do an engine swap.

then your insurance will rape you and you should of just bought a faster car in the first place .
Surely the Engine classifies the Insurance?
Its a major job swapping the engine as I would have to get the immobiliser & ECU programmed to work with the New motor. I get the Impression that I would need the ECU which came with the engine as it effects how it performs?

nope depends on so many other things than the engine . you should prop give up on this before you start

Or just change the injectors and turbo on the pd100/105 to get you past 200? Only thing is you won't have the 6sp 'box though
me too, i had my eye on one yesterday funnily enough. exactly what i was looking for but too far to travel, gutted
this will be my next choice without a doubt, even got a PD130 K&N kit already heh
cant wait
Bang for your buck??
Pick up a pre-facelift 130sport for £3.5k, spend £500 on remap and rear ARB. Maybe rear spacers as well. = £4k for a powerfull and very economical hatch thats only group 8.
I'd be carefull if buying a diesel golf, lots of poor examples out there that were ex-fleet or just poorly looked after mile-munchers. The ibiza sport/Fr is more underated and so owners tend to be more interested in cars/driving/car care than the mass market golfs IMO.
Just my 2p
