'98 &| '03 TDI

Post by jedediah_frey »

(I'll find more flattering photos of them some time)

'98 VW Jetta on the left. '03 Golf on the right.

Jetta has 285k miles. Won't die (just bleeding the brakes). Body is getting it from the midwest but should make a basic development platform.
I have a tune and larger injectors in it but have never had it dyno'd, clutch slips.
Wastegated turbo and a broken wastegate control valve so I have a mechanical pressure valve regulated to ~17 PSI.
Stock: 66 kilowatts (90 PS; 89 bhp) @ 4,000 rpm; 202 newton metres (149 lbf·ft) @ 1,900 rpm

Golf has 160k miles. "New", the injection pump just ate itself which is a great excuse to get a larger one. (11mm over 10mm).

Variable Nozzle Turbo (VNT). Tune set at around 16 PSI.

My last car back in Russia was a Golf IV like on the right. Do not really remember if it was a 2003 or 2004, but it was definitely gasoline 1.6 :)

Best interior ever. Simple yet functional & just amazing.
