Hey guys,
I have a 130bhp variant of the TDI engine fitted to my T5. There is a 174bhp version and I have a brand new Garrett VNT turbo from the 174. I am told it is a straight swap.
I have had my 130 remapped to ~160bhp but although it has made a big difference there is a large flat spot in the power band from 2000-3000rpm. I don't know what causes this?
Other than that issues I have no other problems that I know of.
What would happen if I simply fit the 174 turbo and do nothing else?
