TDI SWAP THREAD
==================
Looked around a lot, the opinion of people is that the 020 gearbox cannot handle all that torque.
For reference, the AAZ & 1.6TD uses the 020 gearbox, and produces 111 lbf⋅ft of torque. 1.6TD is nearly the same: 112 lbf⋅ft
The ALH/AHU generates 154 lbf ft if I look at this Malone chart:

I was thinking, while running the electronic TDI, I can reduce fueling in the 2000-3000 rpm range, so that torque bulge /spike there doesn't happen [VAGEDCSuite supports this]. Yeah kind of defeats the purpose of a TDI, but more fuel efficiency & more modern platform
