Most VAG TDis have more than the stated power figures. The 150 for example has been tested at 170bhp on the rollers standard.
i heard this too, it makes the chips seem better than they are cos they dont actually add a great deal

i was reading a post from a superchips dealer who tested a 150 tdi and it made nearon 170 bhp, but with the chip it only got something like 182 bhp, so not much of an increase really.

yes i agree, but what i was saying that it only really added 12 bhp when they quote 32 bhp if you see where im coming from, it doesnt matter how much the rr is out, it still is uniform to what is being tested on it.

oh yeah, and when the car is in warranty, get a reprogramme because there is no way of tracking it down with VW's equipment, unlike a chip

please explain how to do this easily?
chip too 200 bhp with apr one, then fmic this may give 20bhp max but i doubt it, then the turbo hose thing, another 10 bhp, full zoorst 10 bhp.
thast only 240 bhp, you need to spend some serious money to get more than that.

yes, chipping raises boost levels. the stock internals and turbo wont like run at about 3 bar boost which is what would be required to get anything near that power, plus then you would need to stick some mother of all fuel pumps in to give it enough petrol to run that boost. its not easy, i dont doubt its possible, but it is defo not easy.
