Volkswagen Repair: 2005 VW Gold 1.9 tdi horsepower question, stock horsepower, lbs torque
QuestionHello, I recently chipped my car up from the standard (stock)100 hp and 177 lbs/torque to 145hp and 250 lbs/torque. Can you please tell me if anyone knows what the 0-60 time is for the stock hp and torque is? Any other ideas on how to extend my horsepower without spending too much?
AnswerHi Jason, I know your 177 lb/ft number is correct, but isn't the stock horsepower 105? No matter though. My suggestion for anything related to the aftermarket is "Techtonics Tuning," in Sheridan, Oregon. I don't know anyone with a better reputation, and they stand behind what they offer to their customers. They own a 2005 TDI Jetta...new style A5, and I'm pretty sure they have some other things besides computer enhancements to increase power, and mileage. Give them a call, Jason. They also have a catalogue, on-line. Just do a search. Good luck.
