sorry i dont come on here very often now.

the sdi already has a map sensor so those wires just need extending then its just the n75 wires that need adding or you can repurpose the n18 valve connector ans repin it at the ecu

Hi, sorry to drag up an old thread but I’m looking into a SDI to TDI conversion for my van.

With the Mk4 & MK5 golfs getting quite cheap now, which is the better one to get hold of as a donor?

Also, has anyone got a comprehensive list of what I need to complete it start to finish?

I’m learning on the job here with the VW’s as I’m a newbie to caddy life.

I’m also looking to do the same here, think my SDI engine has had it and I might as well put the extra effort in to make it quicker!
