It is a bit difficult to answer that question without more information. Are you considering replacing an engine with the same type, or converting a car that did not originally have a TDI? If you are converting, is it in a VW that had the TDI option available, or is it another make of car or truck?

Replacing an existing TDI with the same type of TDI is just a normal R&R.
Replacing a gasser with a TDI in a VW that could have had a factory TDI is somewhat more involved, but not all that difficult.
Converting another make of vehicle to TDI is an adventure in ad hoc engineering.
