mTDI / TDI-M Injection Pump FAQ
jimfoo:
Ease of adjustment, lack of electronics, no limp home mode when some sensor goes bad. Especially good for swaps into much older or non VW vehicles as you don't have to worry about swapping any harnesses. Just one wire for the pump, one for the glowplugs and you are good to go.

Hmm.
So instead of buying a complete 1998 Tdi for $4000.. I could just buy a motor and this m-pump?
How much are the pumps? And where would i find them?
I have a 1988 Vw GLi jetta 16v that is getting the TDI implant.
jimfoo:
Giles, in the vendor section, and Tintin, if he has the time can both make them. So yes, you just need the motor and a pump. Sometimes they are for sale other places as well, although I wouldn't trust them from anywhere else unless someone you trust can vouch for them.
vwsnaps:
hmm now i just need to find a motor.. :)
From a performance stand point, swapping the complete car / harness into my mk2 would it be more reliable??
vwsnaps:
i sent Giles an email.
I searched ebay and google and didnt find any.
Im going to talk to my friend who is doin the swap for me..
