Yes - only 47 made, IIRC.

An Ecodiesel? It's not meant to be fast, it's meant to be efficient
What kind of Turbo/intercooler upgrades can you get...if any???
First, you're gonna want to upgrade your IP so that you've got the TD-spec IP. That way, you can actually get some performance out of it. Then, read through this section.
What should I keep close tabs on.....
Keep the thing from overheating, for starters. Then, just keep on top of all of the maintenance stuff, *ESPECIALLY* the timing belt. Every 60,000 miles is the recommended interval for changing it. If it breaks, kiss your valves, possibly your head, and even possibly your pistons goodbye.
