135 bhp 327 nm with BSR. Not much, better to swap to D4 awd for power.

Buy a D4 and you will get all the upgraded parts to go with the higher output (bigger clutch, brakes, suspension etc etc) and it will be far more reliable. That’s my input. |

The D2 is only 2 vales per cylinder but uses 2 bar ( very high) turbo boost already .

The later engines in cars badged D2 with 6 speed manuals had a different 8 valve head but higher pressure turbo and there in lies the restriction as to how far you can take it without risking bursting hoses or rupturing the intercooler. The 2015MY onwards D2's were a 120BHP version of the VEA engine and that's different again but the OP has the 1.6D2 which is the most difficult to uprate of them all. Happy to be corrected if that's not quite right but that's my understanding....

"This includes a performance road test, computer diagnostics and a rolling road power test that to check the car runs correctly. We then modify the engine software for performance gains and test again on the rolling road. We can then produce before and after graphs of your cars power output."

Before considering anything I would want to establish exactly which gearbox you have and what torque handling capacity it might have spare.
