    My 1996 R33 Skyline came out stock with 180kw, after modifications the internally stock engine lived for more than 5 years with over 400kw which includes drag racing and many man many track days where you are full throttle 100% of the time....That was back in 2005 and the engine is still going....

    Engines these days are not as delicate as you think..

    It wasn’t 2.0TDI Skyline, was it? Because AFAIK this discussion is about 2.0TDI which has already 140kW.

    I was waiting for the engine to blow before putting in a 2.0 TDI

    Yeah,
    Should have driven it more often, perhaps as your daily as car owners today do, when they tune their cars and you’d have to put in 1.9TDI, since the 2.0TDI wasn’t born yet. That would be even more funny.

    I was going to enter the 2.0TDI into the lemans 24hr so 24hrs at 100% throttle.

    I used a DTUK piggy back system on my 140TDI R-Line and was impressed. Similar product to JB4 but for diesel. Good after sales service too.

    Thankyou. How long was it in use for? Do you know any alleged/proven power figures?
