Or depending on budget get some updated injectors from America or a company called darkened developments.

The internals are different on a 100 to a 130

130 are good for 300hp were as the 100s are only 250 I believe.

The differences in the internals will be negligible. I'd be more likely to spend and extra time and money on looking for a pd130 over a pd100 if it had forged rods and pistons compare to cast or something like that. As it is they are practically the same...

Yeah mate as soon as I seen they have different rods and pistons it was a no brainier. If VW don't think the rods and pistons arnt suitable for 130 there defiantly not suitable for what I have in mind.

Plus i like to have something no-one else has lol there's only 263 registered in the UK :)

It would defiantly be worth finding out why they've got different rods and pistons and what the differences are.
The other big consideration is that the extra £2k you'd spend to get a pd130 would buy a fair few engine parts...

Yeah defo getting a 130 dont think its called a GT as its the 9n3 model. TBH I dont think the price between them is that big its just there's very little of them around. Can not wait to get one seems like a very helpful forum so I think you'll be hearing from me soon :D. Anyone know if there's a bolt on exhaust system for these? or whether the ibiza FR or VRs milltek is a bolt on fit?

So the milltek for the VRs is a standard fit?
