dude, i have not shot you a personal jab in quite a while. you sure you want to head back down this road?
if the engine does not create torque till 1500 what do you think will happen at 900 to 1500? Crawl = low RPMs or am i missing something here?
Forget completely about engines like the 2LT which have poisoned your view of small diesels.
These TDI engines pull hard from off idle, at 1200rpm they produce more torque than a 1HZ does at peak.
At 1750rpm they are within 10% of the 1HD-T's peak torque.
The torque curve didn't upload before, here it is for the 125kw version. This is not "chipped", this is a bone stock motor.
