Possible to de-stroke a TDI to get under 1.5 L displacement?
I'm somewhat new to the VW diesel world, but have a decent amount of experience with MB diesels.
I'm researching the possibility of how to build the most available power from a VW turbodiesel engine, while keeping the displacement at or below 1.5L. This is for a racing application where the class I want to run is 1.5L or less. (H-class land speed record)
I know about the older generation 1.5L IDI diesels, and the 1.6L IDI turbo diesels, but I'm curious about the possibility of creating a TDI-based 1.5L engine.
It would be great to hear from anyone with experience, knowledge, or crazy ideas about how to build the most possible power from 1.5L or less, using a VW-based diesel engine.
Thanks,
SteveM
