Whats a good performance upgrade for the v6 cdti?

[veccy v6 cdti]

hi fellas,

i got a pre facelift v6 cdti with a dtuk tune box at present. the power is great and have never had a problem with the car.

trouble now is that having run the car like this for a year the magic has gone so now wanting more.

help please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Change it for a 2.8 turbo...

Seriously - I'm amazed you've managed a year with the box fitted mate. Anyone who's tried it on the facelift V6's has trashed the fuel pump shortly afterwards...

most say not to bother, unfortunately. especially on the euro4 model.
fuel pumps have failed on a number of occasions not long after tuning.

I was just about to put 335d when i seen your post

Turn it up to the next map! Even better, take it off for a week then put it back on, you will realise how much you missed it. I found that fitting eibachs transformed the crashy ride, which made it more fun in corners. Just need to shave off 500kgs and it would be great!

uprated turbo, injectors, decat etc... don't forget bigger brake mind

Mine goes like stink!!!!, and its standard with a auto/tiptronic g/box. Can,t afford to take the chance of wrecking the high pressure pump. The pump and fitting/labour charges £4,000 approx., will write the car off clearly.....

vauxhall price to fit and supply is about £1400

You could reduce the weight by taking that big lump of cast iron out from under the bonnet. Weighs a ton, it does.
