Turning a TDi into a GTD - is that possible?

[alibaba]

Hi,
Just wondering if a TDi can be chipped into a GTD?

They have same engine? Just a software mod? Has anyone done it successfully?

Powerwise it can be done easily.
The GTD does have extras though such as the XDL and sportier suspension etc.

Hit up greg from carformance (viezu) or gavin from customcode.

Power wise im sure you can chip the 103TDI into the 125kw GTD territory. But i believe the engine in the GTD is not only either a revised or different engine entirely to the 103TDI, but has other differences like the turbocharger etc.

In loose terms you can make the 103 go like a standard 125 but there are many other differences. Mainly the turbo and supporting hardware from the factory.

Also different cyl. head, head gasket (the cooling system was beefed up to dissipate the extra heat), pistons, conrods, intake system. I would go probaby up to 115kW no more.

Along with the GTI's springs and shocks, you'll want to change the coding in the rack, so as to give the same steering response as a GTI, too.
