its pretty amazing what can be done with the diesels, i love playing with them, mines running almost 2 bar of boost aswell

You can see the typical power and torque increases here

And a fuel saving of up to 20% is normal.
2 bar is mad for a weasel diesel! The old man has a 3.0TDi A6 on a 08 plate (230/240ps?). He kinda likes the idea of a remap for economy reasons, is 20% saving really achievable? He doesn't drive hard but would it put much strain on other components? (Sorry for high jacking the thread)
