Re: TDCI Focus

The main reason I'm interested is modern diesel cars have a lot of performance potential, remember there is more energy in diesel than there is in petrol, with modern injection systems assuming there is room to play you can get good gains for not much work, and they're damn nice to drive as a daily, you get lots of torque right where you want it in a daily driver, right in the bottom/mid range.
Its not so common here in Australia but in the USA its getting big (check out Diesel Power Magazine on the shelf of the news agent) and in Europe its a big field for the smaller cars like ours.
VW and BMW Diesels seem to be the leaders in aftermarket diesel performance for European stuff though.
I'm hoping some people here with Diesel Territory's go for some mods and see what they can get out of their cars, they've got a nice and big engine to play with.
