i am not by anymeans a gearhead but i do know my way around a toolbox and can do most repairs on my car... regaurdless thats not my why i am making this post... i was wondering if i was to chip my 2001 TDI, what kind of benefits/gains would i be able to expect from doing this mod. Another thing is my jetta is Auto, would that have any effect or elegebility on doing this mod.
I was told from friends/family and some other people on other forrums that chipping our TDI's has the ability to increase fuel economy and also regain up to 20% of our engines power... not entirley sure what to make of that but maybe someone here who has chipped there car can clarify.
Another thing i was wanting to know is if i was to chip, would i be able to pass emissions test?
What kind of chip would you recommend/ who in the GTA is able to do it? I hear the price for something like this can run easily around 3-500 dollars. Also remember reading that a rocketchip is our best option.
Lastly, are there any major downsides to chipping, as in would i need to do any other modifications to accomodate this new found power. I realise it would void my warrenty but being an 01' its already long gone and over. any potential dangers on doing such an upgrade?
i have read the FAQ's but still not quite sure on the above.
i appreciate your help and time on this, Thanks
