Description
This is a bolt on hybrid turbo upgrade for 1.9 & 2.0 TDI engines, suitable for 220+ bhp.
This turbo is best when you're not ready to upgrade other supporting mods, but would like a hybrid turbo upgrade or need a simple replacement.
It's essentially a PD150 turbo with a larger compressor wheel and housing and reinforced bearings for reliability. Fully balanced and actuator precisely calibrated - ready to install.
- Suitable for 220+ bhp
- Bolt-on upgrade, works with stock downpipe and oil feed/returns
- Larger 52mm compressor wheel (GT2052V)
- PD150 turbine and shaft (GT1749VB)
- Big GT20 compressor housing
- Reinforced '360' thrust bearings
- VNT actuator and stop screw accurately calibrated
Application
Suitable for VAG 1.9 & 2.0 TDI transverse and longitudinal engines including:
| VE 90 | ALH |
| VE 110 | AHF / ASV |
| PD 90 | BXF |

| PD 160 | BPX |
Boost: 1.9 bar/27psi
Power target: ~220bhp
We also sell 3rd generation VNT Garrett GTB turbos which have improved spool and decreased Exhaust Manifold Pressure (EMP) from an improved VNT mechanism:
Recommended Supporting Mods
A 4 bar MAP sensor will be required to allow the ECU to monitor higher boost levels. The stock MAP sensor for a PD130 is 3 bar absolute (2 bar boost).
PD150 head bolts are advised to prevent head lift occurring from the higher boost levels this turbo will produce.
An intercooler upgrade is advised - stock intercoolers have plastic end tanks which are prone to leak. They also heat soak extremely quickly beyond stock power levels
This turbo is suitable with stock injectors and will see them run to their safe limit of ~230bhp.
Upgrading/de-restricting the exhaust helps reduce engine back pressure and promote better airflow. For example, larger diameter exhaust, and catalytic converter removal (for off road use) will improve turbo spool and prevent high back pressure occurring from the additional exhaust produced.
