Needed a new daily and missed my last one a little bit so I though what better than a xud 306, managed to find a 98 1.9td estate, fairly tidy (bar the o/s wing), low mileage (80k) and cheap.
Picked her up a few weeks ago, was a bit unloved so with a quick mop and polish brought the paint up quite nice, don't plan on doing much to it as it is a 'cheap daily' but in saying that already picked up a set of cyclones, changed all the speakers and added more, compulsory boost gauge, a pump tweak and de-cat and backbox delete.

Already looks a lot better with just changing the wheels, and a decent clean.

What boost she putting out? Thanks Mr Fish, yeah I do have some carpet for it but by the time I'd finished it, wired it all in and hidden everything I ran out of motivation Haha.
She's running around 13-14 psi which after some reading on here is about where it should be stock, correct me if I'm wrong.

yeah I was under the impression 14psi was around stock. wind it up to 20-22psi and fuel to suit and it'll pull well.

Really? That much, any idea what pressure they kill themselves?
As its a cheap economical beater, don't want to go too mad, 50 miles a day so quite like the mpg in all honesty.
As apposed to this thing
And then this one is just too boat like and slow to drive daily, even though it does run an xud

Had a feeling it was due to the tip of the headlights showing.

^this, you'll get great MPG from a tune alongside the added power. Generally it'll even out as slightly better MPG than stock on a combined cycle unless you drive flat out everywhere.. If you do, you'll get high 30's to low 40's on your favorite roads, and low to mid 30's on your favorite racetrack
