Good day,
My 308CDI engine has gone,I am thinking to upgrade to 313CDI .Will really appreciate if someone with good experience could explain me if that is possible,308CDI is 611987 series with 60kw and 80HP,but 313CDI is 611981 series with 95kw and 129HP.Both are the same 2148cc and I have been told that the difference are the turbo, injectors ,control unit, harness and ignition?Is there anything else I have to consider and pay careful attention to?Thank you in advance.

the 308/310/312 are all the same basic engine but the 312 has a different turbo, VNT i seem to remember, only difference between the 308/310 is the ECU mapping. It is possible to get the 308 re-mapped up to around 140bhp, i've seen quite a few of these and the difference is incredible! Pop me a PM and i'll give you some more details.
