		Subject: Enging Tuner || New Question Sender's Name: mark g3 estate Question: hello alan. how better to ask than the man himself. ive got a mk3 golf tdi estate on a N 1996 its a 90 bhp 8 valve. have you ever boosted the power on one of these engines if so what is best to do. also ive searched the net and cant find alot of info about tuning that engine plus might be after a dump valve ive had petrol turbos so i know how to fit them but when it comes to diesel im unsure as to the fitting and parts needed. thanks mark... Answer: Hi Mark- if this is the electronic throttle version, we can chip it. If it has a throttle cable, we can't do anything with it! A chip conversion can produce as much as 30 bhp extra on those.Don't bother with a dump valve, as it's a total waste of space and effort on a diesel.

Answer: Hi Matt- Well, for a bit of simple old school I'd go for carbs, but you won't get away with it on a Corsa due to emission regulations! Try Regal Racing, who can supply all the parts you need for this conversion.
		Subject: Enging Tuner || New Question Sender's Name: andy Question: hi Alan. steve from paignton said to speak to you. sometime i\'ll have to pop in and see you to have a complete check over the car. its my first scoob. my query is that when the turbi is spooling up, and building pressure it seems very noisy! its a loud hissing sort of noise . could this be a faulty dump valve staying open perhaps or is this just normal for a scoob? thanks Answer: Hi Andy- It could be an air leak of some kind. Rule of thumb with your Scooby is to take any possible fault seriously, so the sooner you get it looked at the better!
