Sounds like an expert

For example, he and his friends prepared a car like mine that had about 272hp, unfortunatly he had an accident. (base car= tdi 110hp).

162hp increase,with a TDI i woudlnt expect it to cost a huge ammount to get that power as it would on a petrol NA or even petrol turbo car,from what i gather a diesel can handle a good ammount of boost,so for that 162hp gain i suppose they changed the turbo,intercooler,exhaust,induction and with the bigger turbo the ECU being tuned again with a bigger turbo would have gained a nice ammount of power

lol i could be wrong but i think thats the whole bonus of diesel tuning.as they work well with ECU tuning,when my mate got his chipped we went to a place in derby called DERV,they specialise in diesel tuning,the 2 owners one having a chipped BMW 330d with 255hp and his mate had a pugeout 306 TDI,started with 90hp but had 190hp,220 with nitrous,but he was ayin the key to gettin it higher power was a bigger turbo and the right ECU map.

120km/h... but we Portuguese are a bit nuts...
Our cruise speed at the highways is around 140-150km/h.... LOL, and every guy with a Seat Ibiza TDI has passed 200km/h... LOLOL
People who have Ibiza's are even more nuts...
My cousin has a Seat IbizaTDI 130cv, chipped and with some mods on turbo and ic, and the he has taken it to 250km/h, on the speedo... ON A IBIZA!!! Nuts....
