Hello all I am new here and have recently bought a 1999 mk2 polo estate TDI alot of people think they are ugly but i think they have loads of potential and are pretty rare especially the tdi versions. I bought it for 225 quid as is had been vandalized just needed a rear window and front so i got the front repaired for 150 and fitted the rear myself with a Cordoba estate window from the scrap yard costing me 35quid with silicone e.t.c =) so it only stands me at 410quid which i'snt bad considering it has 11months MOT and only 111,000 miles. I used to own a mk2 caddy van which i understand is the same front end and interior but needed this as its more practical.

A few questions regarding tuning so its the 1.9 tdi ahu code engine , my plan is to fit 216 injector nozzles and remap it =) any thoughts? I'm hoping around 140bhp from 90 is this realistic? if not what else would need to be done?

Also trying to buy some coilovers for it and would like to know if the ones designed for the mk2 cordoba/ibiza/polo classic will fit? i know the front ones will but the rears might pose a problem.

Any help would be fantastic =)

Hello,

I think just with a chip, exhaust and inter cooler they can get to 130 so 140 doesn't seem optimistic at all!

And as far as I'm aware the Ibiza 6k suspension fits all round dude.
