These are the number that site quotes for the 2.0TDI:
134-170 hp 2.0L TDI

This engine was made to replace the older fashioned higher-powered versions of the 1.9 TDI. It is the first DOHC 4-cylinder TDI engine made by Volkswagen. The lower-powered versions of the 1.9 TDI were replaced by the above mentioned new 105 hp version of the 1.9 TDI.
Configuration inline 4 cylinder 1968 cm³ TDI Head 4 valves per cylinder, DOHC, compression ratio 18.5:1 Fuel system direct-injection pump/nozzle, piezo actuators valve, pressure up to 2,200 bar Aspiration switched induction manifold for turbulence control, turbocharged, intercooled Engine management Bosch EDC 16 exhaust particulate filter Output 100 kW (136 hp) @ 4000 rpm, 320 N·m @ 1750 to 2500 rpm 103 kW (140 hp) @ 4000 rpm, 335 N·m (247 lbf·ft) @ 1900 rpm 125 kW (170 hp) @ 4000 rpm, 350 N·m @ 1800 to 2500 rpm Sources GermanCarFans Tuned 150 kW (204 hp) Available on VW Golf, VW Touran, VW Jetta, VW Passat and Passat Wagon since 2005 I was under the impression that torque is 320Nm. Amd what do they mean by "tuned"?

I found some old VW news release by TKM dated 3/10/95.
Power quoted is 66kw @ 4000rpm.
Some more info handed out by the dealer at the time was obviously taken from the net dated 19/7/96. It was from a Canadian VW site.Power quoted is 75 hp @ 4200rpm.
Oops---I have just read the max torque is only 150Nm @ 2400rpm --- obviously not the TDI engine.
The pricing for the 96 TDI is amazing,$38,616 on road. The pre delivery was 'only' $960. When you consider the effects of inflation over the last 10 years & the standard features of the current diesels it's no wonder they are selling so well.

Those motors with a tuning box on do 126hp I think. Could be the 110hp to start though.

My mate dropped one into a 1990 Passat wagon and it would see off std mk2 GTIs easily. An strange drive cos the engine turns so slowly, he used to do 2 trips from Blackpool to Heathrow and back, like over 800 miles on a tank....

Real easy to fit, stick the box between the pump and the connector, adjust the little screw till it runs lumpy then back it off a touch so it evens out again. Nearly a 5 minute job.
