Hi
I am brand new to this forum, here is the question I have a toyota pickup with a 03 alh tdi in it and I want to install a mechanical pump in the truck with a turbo and manifold off of a 96-99 tdi because I do not have the time to build a vnt controller. I originally was going to have fast forward build a harness to run everything but after 1 year of waiting on them I just told them to keep the harness and everything, I don't think that guy likes vw motors going in other vehicles. I want to buy a pump but I do not know who is the best to use for this sort of thing I do not want to buy something that is going to leave me stranded 6 months later, cost really isn't a facter either but I just don't want something that is going to only have 70hp and 125ft lbs. I would like to make at least 200ft lbs and be reliable. Anyways any suggestions on who to go to, I wish I knew how to post pics of this thing. Thanks in advance

you'll want a tdi-m pump as has been described in this forum many times, and you'll definetly want a bigger turbo if you're shooting for those hp numbers. the stock tdi ones are like the size of a fist. tiny.
