Hybrid turbo, uprated injectors, uprated intercooler, different exhaust system. That’s before you get into the murky world of bypassing the various anti-pollutant systems the car has (which of course I wouldn’t recommend)
I think that I will just go for the remap, many thanks to everyone for the info.........

Hi also use my A2 for the daily grind from snozzle to Newquay. Ideal for the roads, no rust and a tank of diesel lasts a month.
Mines a 90 and same colour as yours. I find the lack of a motorway or long run means I have to run a Bottle of turbo clean through 3times a year but that's probably a VVT issue.
Do see plenty of A2's down here as they are sea air proof and slim.

Good to know the tdi timing belt can manage 95k+Hi all,
Quick question if I might, I'll ask here rather than clog up the rest of the forum (I did search but couldn't find anything conclusive).
Checked back through the history on the car and the cambelt was last done in 2013 and 95,000 miles ago so needs doing. I've also got an issue with starting where it'll start then stall straight away for the first turn or so, then it'll start OK. I did a quick search and someone mentioned previously that it could be a stretched belt.
Anyway, I've got a mechanic mate who'll do the belt for me so that's fine, but just want to check whether this is the right kit before I order. Always had Gates belts before so happy with that, and it states its for the AMF engine (which I have) but just want to double check.

Hi, yes in that I have a Pine green (dark green) 1.4 Petrol, has a "sporty" white audi sticker on the passenger door bottom on both sides. I live well of the beaten track so its only ever seen on the way to the shops or dropping kids to StIves.
