Ive got the newer SDi I think?(6N2 Polo) What modifications would you suggest are worthwhile for the engine? So far had the car 2 years and havnt really touched it, as I thought its not really worth adding mods to non-turbo diesel.

And today I found some time to lower her trunk some more, about 2 cm extra:

The extreme German "Keilform" look is just slighty altered
To get a even (front and rear) lowering I still have 1,5cm to lower her trunk :lol:
And still I can drop it 8cm's lower to the the ground (rearaxle) :shock: 8)

The Powerbox or ECU modification(altering software with new Chip) will give about 15 HP extra but you'll love the extra Torque :lol:
Two friends of mine own a both a Golf 3 TDI (1Z engine) in orginal config they had trouble to overtake me, They did but had to give everything they had.
At lower revs the improvement is better than at higher revs due lack of the turbo.
My classic will do about 185km/h, instead of the 165/170kmh in original config, tested it a few weeks ago in Germany

Within a few weeks the front suspension will be modified, I going to use the springs from a FK Highsport Coilover set, if this mod works it wil alow me to adjust the allready mounted coilover set even more. :lol: (basicly its only a springswap)
She will go low idd "PolOW" :lol: :lol:

It should be going to look like this(more or less):
