Hi,
I have the Audi A3 8P1 Quatro 2.0 TDI 140, remapped to 178bhp.
I've not had the car long and the turbo just last night started to make the dreaded siren sound, not just under load, but at low revs in neutral, both with increasing and decreasing revs. It's quite prominent when I first start the car too. Doesn't sound normal.
The following link mentions a Turbo Upgrade that can handle over 200 bhp.
I was looking for some advice on this.
It mentions the GTB2056VK Turbo (I'm guessing that's Garret).
I was wondering where to get one from, I'm in the UK but if it's cheaper to import that would be an option. I was also wondering what I'd need to fit it. Does it need any manifolds or gaskets that I'd need to buy seperately etc? Also, would I need to take it for a retune if I just wanted to keep the 178bhp remap that I already have without going any further?
Any other advice or options you think I need would also be appreciated.
